Description

The portable multifunction device, method and the graphic user interface that are used for translating displayed content
Technical field
The disclosed embodiments relate generally to portable electric appts, relate more specifically to the portable set in response to detected finger gesture translating displayed content.
Background technology
Along with portable electric appts becomes more compact, and the increase of giving the performed function quantity of locking equipment, design makes the user can be easily become significant challenge with the mutual user interface of multifunctional equipment.This challenge is particularly important for the screen handheld portable devices more much smaller than desk-top computer or laptop computer.Situation is disadvantageous, passes through its not only received content but also approach that user action or behavior (it comprises that the user attempts the feature of access means, instrument and function) are responded because user interface is the user.Some portable communication devices (for example, be also sometimes referred to as mobile phone of cellular phone or the like) resort to the more pressing buttons of interpolation, increase the density of pressing button, the function of overload (overload) pressing button utilizes perhaps that the complex menu system makes that the user can visit, storage and manipulation data.These legacy user interfaces cause the button order and the menu layer level structure of the complexity that the user must remember usually.
A lot of legacy user interfaces such as the user interface that comprises the physics pressing button also are inflexible.This is disadvantageous, because this may stop user interface by the application program of moving on portable set or by user's configuration and/or repacking.When the difficulty with the time-consuming requirement of remembeing a plurality of button orders and menu layer level structure and the pressing button aspect that activation is expected combined, this ineffective activity was gloomy to most of users.
The example of the ineffective activity of a lot of conventional user interfaces is to adopt the touch screen interface on the portable set to come the translating displayed content difficulty of (comprising that especially the framework that shows a part of content also also comprises the displaying contents of the other guide outside this framework).Sometimes, the user may wish the displaying contents part in the translational frame only, and the other guide outside the translational frame not.Other the time, the user may wish the also content outside the translational frame of content in the both translational frames.Conventional touch screen interface lacks the user friendly method of distinguishing these two operations.
Therefore, need a kind ofly to have more clear and be used for portable multifunction device according to the user interface of user intention translating displayed content more intuitively, this user interface is easy to use, configuration and/or repacking.Validity, efficient and the user satisfaction of portable multifunction device improved at this interface.
