And the invention is applied to handheld electronic devices with small keyboards which have no digital keys but scroll wheels or direction keys.

Description

The method that keypad or roller are selected and rotated mobile menu pointer with the roller low-angle fast
Technical field:
The present invention relates to the system of selection of menu, particularly the method for quick selection in more options and the method for rotating the fast moving menu pointer with the roller low-angle with keypad or roller.
Technical background:
Hand-held electronic equipment or control electronics are limit because of volume, adopt small keyboard layout, and, because be hand-held, when single hand-held set one-handed performance, a finger can only be arranged by hitting button, with have over one hundred button and can ten refer to that the shared computer keyboards compare, it is complicated more that a lot of operations become.
In the menu selection operation, especially in the character string input operation, in more than one choice menus, carry out the situation of selection operation through regular meeting.If such as click keys 2 (this button can be imported A, B, three pinyin character of C) in the use spelling spelling input method editor Chinese character note on mobile phone, can occur two menu bars simultaneously selects for the operator, first menu bar is the menu Chinese character bar, and the menu item in this menu bar is the Chinese character set of taking the lead with phonetic alphabet A; Second menu bar is the phonetic alphabet menu bars, and the menu item in this menu bar is A, B, three different phonetic alphabet of C.These two menu bars have different menu pointers, the menu pointer of menu Chinese character bar moves by clicking directionkeys, clicks acknowledgement key and finishes selection, and alphabetical menu bar then comes moving hand by the repeatedly continuous click to No. 2 buttons, clicking pauses finishes to select, and waits next button and triggers.In this operating process, the operation finger needs the shift position by hitting different buttons, and different menu bars is to be selected by different buttons.
Be not only in Chinese character string input people can face above-mentioned two menu bars, association's language input technology has all obtained application in the input of a lot of languages, the situation of two menus of this appearance is not that the Chinese character input only has.Now a lot of hand-hold electronic equipments even no longer include numeric keypad, and directionkeys (navigation key) or roller are only arranged, obviously, only rely on directionkeys or roller will finish above-mentioned many menus and select just to become the comparison difficulty, this class of electronic devices adopts phonetic entry, handwriting input to wait the input operation of carrying out character string mostly, but phonetic entry, handwriting input also have limitation, need bimanualness such as handwriting input, one hand-held set is write on the other hand; Phonetic entry then has higher requirements to environment, the accuracy of too noisy environmental impact input, and phonetic entry is not easy to maintain secrecy in public.
In fact, when carrying out the character string input, people not only need select in above-mentioned two menu bars, such as when carrying out the English input, English alphabet has two kinds of different selections of capital and small letter, and punctuation mark also is absolutely necessary, the character that in English, also will mix inputting digital character or even other languages sometimes, on big keyboard, because the more and bimanualness of button is easy to handle.On keypad, handle just difficulty of the problems referred to above, existing keypad input technology be options will be not too commonly used as one or more submenus of menu or choice menus is set separately and for this reason menu a key position be set separately open this menu-----such as the punctuation mark menu, done operation so complicated undoubtedly.
Roller is a colyliform input media more common on hand-hold electronic equipments, it comprises a rotary part for operator's finger manipulation, the rotation of this rotary part is detected by rotation monitor parts and direction and the angular displacement that rotates is passed to control module with electric signal, light signal or other signal transfer modes, the rotation detector parts can be angular displacement sensor or angular position pick up, and both can convert at detected different parameters value; Rotary part is installed on the housing parts by one-bearing arrangement, and housing parts can be the individual components that belongs to roller devices that is fixed on the equipment that uses roller devices, also can be to use the some of housing of the equipment of roller devices.Roller has two classes, and first kind roller is merely able to rotation; The second class roller both can rotate, can also be by trigger a switch block by pressing roller; Roller has two kinds of mounting meanss, first kind of mounting means such as accompanying drawing 1, the roller major part is hidden in enclosure interior, has only a very little part to be exposed to outside the housing for the rim section of finger manipulation, this roller is once stirred and can only be rotated very little angle, needs multi-pass operations when the anglec of rotation is big; Another kind of mounting means such as Fig. 2, the operation part of this roller all is exposed to outside the housing, does not have the problem of first kind of roller.The said roller of the present invention is if the first kind, and the equipment of then using roller should also have a switch at least; If second class then can independently appear on the equipment.
Goal of the invention:
1, in more menu item, selects the method for required menu item fast with keypad or roller.
2, a kind of method of operating of roller, this method are with low-angle rotation fast moving menu pointer, and the operation wheel rim major part that especially is fit to roller is hidden in the roller mounting means of enclosure interior.
3, a kind of method of operating of roller, this method are rotated in low-angle and select required menu item in the long menu fast.
4, a kind of method of operating of roller, this method is selected required menu item fast with the mixing rotation mode of low-angle and wide-angle in long menu.
Technical scheme 1:
Selection operation is extremely common operation, have many times, particularly when carrying out the character string input, such as input text, need in a lot of options, select, if these options are arranged in a long menu, be not easy to carry out fast selection operation undoubtedly, in keypad text input, generally will long menu in the part option as the submenu of master menu, such as the punctuation mark menu.The technical program then is that above-mentioned more options is divided into some groups by usage frequency or classification, also column selection on display screen, thereby the speed of raising selection operation.
The method that this programme proposed is fit to have handheld electronic or control electronics than giant-screen to use, and the selection instruction that especially is fit to the continued operation of similar character string input is used.
All technical schemes proposed by the invention all relate to from a plurality of options the operation of selecting an item, promptly to the selection operation of menu; Duty adjustment instruction then is a kind of comparatively special selection instruction, it is to select one in the different a plurality of duties of value, adjustment such as tv volume, different volume status is exactly an options, the different duty of these values is equivalent to the menu item of menu selection operation, these menu items are arranged by size, change with moving of menu pointer.Because above-mentioned both are identical in essence, so all technical schemes proposed by the invention promptly can be used for the duty adjustment through simple conversion.So, every based on technical scheme proposed by the invention, after simple conversion, be used for method or technical scheme that duty is adjusted, also should be within protection domain of the present invention.Technical scheme 2 has provided the example (Figure 14) of such conversion.
One of the demonstration of menu and system of selection side by side:
The menu item that all usage frequencies are higher is divided into different classes by its different usage frequency or type, and each class menu item assembles a menu bar, and all menu bars are shown on same display screen simultaneously;
The menu item that usage frequency is extremely low then can assemble one or several menus submenu as a certain menu bar;
If the menu item in the menu bar is more, menu item can surmount display screen and roll with moving on screen of menu pointer;
Illustrate: Fig. 3 is the screen of the display screen of input English character string, this screen is divided into four menu bars with the menu item that all need, an English lower case menu bar, an English capitalization menu bar, a punctuation mark menu bar, a numerical character menu bar, the top of screen are the character string input fields.Except punctuation mark commonly used, the symbol that is of little use can be used as the submenu of punctuation mark menu bar.Thereby two menu bars of upper and lower case letter can not be on screen show fully and " have surmounted " screen that Fig. 4 has shown that then the menu bar of Fig. 3 is with the variation of menu pointer after rolling on the screen.
Above-mentioned menu bar can be customized as required by the user;
4 menu bars of Fig. 3 illustrate: if can not satisfy user's needs, in the English character string of being everlasting, use Russia's Chinese character such as the user with, just can add Russia's Chinese character menu bar, if the user uses mathematic sign with in the English character string of being everlasting, just can add the mathematic sign menu bar or with the menu item of mathematic sign as the numerical character menu bar.
It is first menu bar, second menu bar etc. that above-mentioned menu bar preferentially then is arranged in order by different types by the height of its usage frequency again, and the rest may be inferred;
Illustrate: as Fig. 3, what usage frequency was the highest in the input of English character string is the small letter English alphabet naturally, secondly is capitalization English letter, then is punctuation mark, is numerical character at last.In character string input, usage frequency is not to be unalterable, and is very common during such as the situation that is mixed with a lot of numerical character in English, can in option program, consider this situation at any time the ordering of menu adjust.Fig. 7 has shown a kind of situation that menu bar puts in order and changes, setting the input method that adopts is English predictive input mode, will input method be associated word you after input How are? direct input character input field, the menu bar at this word place is first menu bar.Certainly, if association's word can be sequentially arranged in it in first menu bar more than one.Sometimes be difficult to distinguish the usage frequency of different menu bar,, at this moment arrange just passable by type such as capitalization English character and numeral.
Above-mentioned menu bar is presented in first viewing area, second viewing area etc. successively according to the order of first menu bar, second menu bar, and the rest may be inferred;
Illustrate:, from bottom to top, be followed successively by first viewing area, second viewing area etc. as Fig. 3.Be the character input field topmost.
Above-mentioned menu bar when opening, shared same menu pointer, all menu bar first terms of this pointed;
Menu pointer is shifted to the adjacency in the same way of all menu bar specific items simultaneously when mobile;
Illustrate: as Fig. 1, menu pointer points to four menu items in four different menu bars, and Fig. 1 lower left shade is a menu pointer; Menu pointer moves the back as Fig. 4 or Fig. 5.
In the above-mentioned menu bar except menu pointer in the maximum menu bar of menu item can circulate move, all the other all not capable of circulation moving, in other words, menu pointer can only be in the short menu bar initial menu item and the end of a period menu item between move between different menu item, the interval that this menu pointer moves is a valid interval;
When menu pointer shift out the valid interval of a certain menu bar the time, this menu is closed; When menu pointer moved into the valid interval of a certain menu bar, this menu was opened.
Illustrate: as Fig. 3, small letter English character menu bar is the longest menu bar (than capitalizing the menu deletion of having Duoed and returning two), menu pointer can circulate mobile, promptly can be from each alphabetic item of a, b process to z, again by z through the deletion and return two to a, also can be from a, pass through each alphabetic item again to b through returning and delete two to z, again by b to a, do not have beginning or end; The numerical character menu bar is initial menu item with numerical character 0 then, and numerical character 9 is the end of a period menu item, is example with Fig. 5, if menu pointer moves in the interval of letter r, Y, C, the numerical character menu is opened, and menu pointer moves betwixt; If menu pointer is shifted to alphabetical P or shifted to alphabetical D from letter C from letter r, the numerical character menu is closed; If the moving direction of menu pointer and above-mentioned direction are just the opposite, the numerical character menu is opened.
Two of the demonstration of menu arranged side by side and system of selection:
The difference of this method and method one is that to the demonstration of first menu bar and disposal route it is less to be fit to the first menu bar menu item, and the situation that menu is short is specific as follows:
The menu item that all usage frequencies are higher is divided into different classes by its different usage frequency or type, and each class menu item assembles a menu bar;
The menu item that usage frequency is extremely low then can assemble one or several menus submenu as a certain menu bar;
If the menu item in the menu bar is more, menu item can surmount display screen and roll with moving on screen of menu pointer;
Above-mentioned menu bar can be customized as required by the user;
It is first menu bar, second menu bar etc. that above-mentioned menu bar preferentially then is arranged in order by different types by the height of its usage frequency again, and the rest may be inferred;
Above-mentioned menu bar at first shows first menu bar when opening, menu pointer points to the first menu bar first term or shows simultaneously
All menu bars, menu pointer point to the first menu bar first term;
The menu pointer of first menu bar is not capable of circulation to be moved;
When menu pointer shifts out first menu bar, forever close first menu bar and show all the other menu bars; Menu pointer points to first term or forever closes first menu bar and menu pointer is pointed to all the other opened menu bar first terms.
All the other menu bars except that first menu bar when opening, shared same menu pointer, all menu bar first terms of opening of this pointed, menu pointer is shifted to the adjacency in the same way of all menu bar specific items simultaneously when mobile;
In all menu bars except that first menu bar only in the maximum menu bar of menu item menu pointer can circulate mobile, all the other all not capable of circulation moving, in other words, menu pointer can only be in the short menu bar initial menu item and the end of a period menu item between move between different menu item, the interval that this menu pointer moves is a valid interval;
When menu pointer shift out the valid interval of a certain menu bar the time, this menu is closed;
When menu pointer moved into the valid interval of a certain menu bar, this menu was opened;
The menu bar of forever closing is no longer opened.
Illustrate: this method especially is fit to adopt the predictive input mode input of character string, as Fig. 7, Fig. 8, after input How are, to associate character string " you? " as first menu bar, this menu bar has only a menu item, and Fig. 7 shows all menu bars but the situation of the pointed first menu bar first term simultaneously; Fig. 8 is the situation that at first shows first menu bar.First menu bar of Fig. 7 is presented at the character input field, and first menu bar of Fig. 8 is presented at the menu viewing area.Obviously, when using the predictive input mode input of character string, adopt this method can improve the speed of input, but it is fit to the short situation of association's menu.No matter how menu pointer moves also first menu of forever being closed will no longer open.
One of the demonstration of menu arranged side by side and method of operating of system of selection are applicable to the demonstration and the system of selection of above-mentioned two kinds of menus arranged side by side:
Move menu pointer with directionkeys or roller or with numerical key as directionkeys, though have only a key can confirm to operate or confirm to operate the affirmation signal that each acknowledgement key is sent with a plurality of keys and do not distinguished;
Selection operation to above-mentioned menu carries out in two steps, at first mobile menu pointer to the required entries carries out first and determines operation, all menu items of menu pointer appointment are pressed the order of first menu bar, second menu bar etc., be arranged in order into second menu, mobile menu pointer to the required entries carries out second and determines operation, carries out selected instruction;
If the item of menu pointer appointment has only one when carrying out the first affirmation operation, carry out selected item instruction.
Illustrate: Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 6 have shown the part display screen of aforesaid operations.Fig. 3 is the initial menu of opening, and Fig. 4 carries out first to confirm preoperative screen after Fig. 3 menu pointer moves, and Fig. 6 is the initial menu of second menu.For the hand-hold electronic equipments that numeric keypad is arranged, can operate as directionkeys and definite key with numerical key.1 to 9 key in the numerical key of keypad generally is arranged as one 3 * 3 matrix, and middle row is for being followed successively by 4,5,6 three keys, and 4,6 keys can be used as directionkeys and use (following flow process only needs the both direction key), and No. 5 keys then can be used as determines that key uses.Adopt numerical key alternative orientation key on cell-phone, can save now almost as the directionkeys of keypad standard key, it is littler or screen is bigger to make it volume, is not new technology with numerical key alternative orientation key, and much computor-keyboards are exactly like this.For pointing sturdy man, numerical key and less directionkeys ratio are easier to operation.Except being used for the button of mobile menu pointer, other any buttons can be as definite button, is used for can having as the button of determining key a plurality of, and the operation finger can be determined to operate with nearest button, thereby makes operation more convenient.Directionkeys has a variety of forms, by touch-tone, rocker-type etc., every device that is used for the actions menu pen travel all belongs to the category of the said directionkeys of the present invention.
Two of the demonstration of menu arranged side by side and the method for operating of system of selection is applicable to the demonstration and the system of selection of above-mentioned two kinds of menus arranged side by side:
Move menu pointer with directionkeys or roller or with numerical key as directionkeys, be endowed different menu bars with the affirmation signal that a plurality of keys are confirmed to operate and each acknowledgement key was sent;
Selection operation to menu carries out according to the following steps: mobile menu pointer is to the required entries, and definite key of the menu bar at the selected place of operation is carried out selected instruction;
If when determining operation, have only a menu item to be specified, the definite operation that all is considered as selected menu item is operated in the affirmation of determining key arbitrarily by menu pointer.
Illustrate: for existing roller and directionkeys, though numeric keypad or nil keyboard arranged again but have enough buttons can be for different menu being carried out the handheld device of selection operation, different menu bars can be determined to instruct and give different buttons, such as giving digital keys 1, give digital keys 2 etc. with the key command of second menu bar with the affirmation instruction of first menu bar.For ease of confirming operation, the affirmation operating key position of different menu bar can be pointed out in display screen, as shown in Figure 7, the shadow part of both sides, Fig. 7 below is prompt, points out corresponding menu bar to confirm operation by 1,2,3, No. 4 numerical key respectively.
Operating process:
Illustrate: all flow processs of this instructions all provide process flow diagram in the accompanying drawings, for ease of contrasting with process flow diagram, the step of all flow processs is by following rule numbers: process step is numbered 4, front two is the figure number of accompanying drawing, two of backs are sequence of steps number, such as 0909, be the 9th step of accompanying drawing 9.
The operating process of one of aforesaid operations method:
Step 0901: many menu bars selection instruction is assigned, and opens menu, and menu pointer points to first term, changes step 0902 over to.
Illustrate: the best image pattern 3 of the arrangement of menu item matrix equally, uniform, be convenient to seek and operation, otherwise menu pointer can be uneven, not attractive in appearance also being not easy to sought and operated.Fig. 3 lower left dash area is menu pointer, and it is a kind of that menu pointer is not limited to shown in Figure 3 this certainly, as long as can distinguish out the appointment menu item and non-appointment menu item is just passable.The first term of menu bar is not at every turn yet is unalterable, such as Fig. 4, after the English How are of input, if the English input method that is adopted has association function, can directly menu pointer be moved to alphabetical y place; Pointer appointment menu item is a first term when perhaps selecting with last time, and last character that Fig. 3 selectes is the space, and pointer just can stay in the place, space.Menu pointer is not one side that image pattern 3 appears at display screen like that yet, and it is more better that image pattern 5 appears at the central authorities of display screen like that, can see the menu item of pointer both sides like this, and menu pointer does not roll on screen, and menu item rolls.Position between the different menu bar is not must be changeless yet, can be such to Fig. 5, and except first menu bar, menu pointer all points to the middle entry of all the other menu bars at every turn.
Step 0902: the present situation is reached display show, change step 0903 over to;
Step 0903: monitoring pen travel signal, if the pen travel signal is arranged, judge the pen travel direction, change step 0904 over to; If do not have the pen travel signal, change step 0907 over to;
Illustrate: the pen travel signal is sent by the input media of moving hand, such as directionkeys, and roller etc.
Step 0904: judge whether current pointer shifts out a certain menu bar valid interval, if, close this menu bar, change step 0905 over to; If not, change step 0905 over to;
Step 0905: judge whether current pointer moves into a certain menu bar valid interval, if, open this menu bar, change step 0906 over to; If not, change step 0906 over to;
Step 0906: by assigned direction menu pointer is transferred to the successive term that all open menu bar, changes step 0902 over to;
Step 0907: the monitoring confirmation signal, if confirmation signal is arranged, change step 0908 over to, if there is not confirmation signal, return step 0903;
Step 0908:, change step 0913 over to if the current set of menu pointer specific items has only one; If it is multinomial that the current set of menu specific items has, these specific items are become second menu by the menu bar series arrangement, menu pointer points to first term, changes step 0909 over to;
Illustrate: Fig. 6 is exactly second menu that is generated by Fig. 4.
Step 0909: current state is reached display show, change step 0910 over to;
Step 0910: monitoring pen travel signal, if the pen travel signal is arranged, judge the pen travel direction, change step 0911 over to; If do not have the pen travel signal, change step 0912 over to;
Step 0911: by preferential direction pointer is shifted to successive term, change step 0909 over to;
Step 0912: the monitoring confirmation signal, if confirmation signal is arranged, change step 0913 over to, if there is not confirmation signal, return step 0910;
Step 0913: carry out selected instruction.
Illustrate: for the such Continuous Selection instruction of character string input, if selected be character, will select character input of character string input field, open choice menus, carry out selection operation next time.If what use is predictive input mode, must be first menu bar of association's character as selection next time.If selected instruction is to delete, return etc. then carry out this instruction, enter next step operation by command content.
Two operating process of aforesaid operations method:
Step 1001: many menu bars selection instruction is assigned, and opens menu, and menu pointer points to all menu bar first terms, changes step 1002 over to.
Step 1002: current state is reached display show, change step 1003 over to;
Step 1003: monitoring pen travel signal, if the pen travel signal is arranged, judge the pen travel direction, change step 1004 over to; If do not have the pen travel signal, change step 1007 over to;
Step 1004: whether current pointer shifts out a certain menu bar valid interval, if, close this menu bar, change step 1005 over to; If not, change step 1005 over to;
Step 1005: whether current pointer moves into a certain menu bar valid interval, if, open this menu bar, change step 1006 over to; If not, change step 1006 over to;
Step 1006: by assigned direction menu pointer is transferred to the successive term that all open menu bar, changes step 1002 over to;
Step 1007: the monitoring confirmation signal, if confirmation signal is arranged, change step 1008 over to, if there is not confirmation signal, return step 1003;
Step 1008:, change step 1010 over to if the current set of menu pointer specific items has only one; If it is multinomial that the current set of menu pointer specific items has, change step 1009 over to;
Which illustrate: when the menu pointer specific items has only one, needn't judge the signal key position again,,, all directly carry out no matter from key so long as confirm instruction.Also can skip this step, judge the signal key position,, look it is invalid or handle by maloperation if confirmation signal comes the acknowledgement key position of self closing menu bar.
Step 1009: judge confirmation signal key position, prepare to carry out this key position menu bar and specify the menu item instruction; Change step 1010 over to.
Step 1010: carry out the instruction of confirmation signal menu item.
The suitable selection operation that carries out continuously of two above-mentioned operating processes especially as character string input operations such as note input, text editings, also can be used for the selection operation of other types certainly.
Carry out the method for keypad character string input with existing usefulness and compare, the system of selection that technical scheme 1 is provided has following characteristics:
Only need an acknowledgement key and roller or directionkeys just can finish complicated character string input, the moving area of finger diminishes, if adopt the second class roller that can trigger a switch to carry out above-mentioned work, finger just need not to leave roller at all.One-handed performance becomes and is more prone to.
Operation becomes more directly perceived, and all options all are presented on the screen and select, and with key position irrelevant (keypad is then relevant with the key position), need not remember any key position.Wait the memory chump to use so be convenient to the old man more.If the menu item of the appointment of menu pointer is shown with bigger character, then be convenient to people with visual impairment more and use.
Operation steps is more succinct, the operation of opening submenu, closing submenu has been omitted in conversion operation so commonly used for the selection capital and small letter character of the selection of punctuation mark, numerical character, (do not have the secondary selection operation sometimes and increase for the selection operation step of conventional characters yet, but seldom, the operation steps that is reduced when using predictive input mode can surpass the step that secondary operation increases).
Can be good at combination with the predictive input mode of various language, can improve input speed.
Because options is all irrelevant with the key position arbitrarily, need not remember, anyone can be soon on top of.
Be fit to various types of input methods.With the Chinese character is example, and input method of Chinese character is broadly divided into character pattern input, phonetic input, sound shape in conjunction with three types of inputs, and character pattern input is representative with the Five-stroke Method; The phonetic input then has spelling input and Two bors d's oeuveres input (China's Mainland phonetic); Sound shape is a lot of in conjunction with the input method kind, but does not popularize.Majority are because spelling input method is easy to grasp, and use is spelling input method.In the crowd who uses spelling input method, because all-phonetic input method is more directly perceived than double-spelling Chinese character input method, (no matter big keyboard or keypad are when adopting the spelling input and adopt all-phonetic input method, the English key name of each key position is exactly the key name of phonetic alphabet, need not remember; Double-spelling Chinese character input method need be remembered key name).If what adopt is double-spelling Chinese character input method, do not consider tone, at most need only three times selection operation can finish the input (at first select initial consonant, then select simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, selecting Chinese character in the word in unison at last) of a Chinese character; If the employing all-phonetic input method, the input (for example Chinese character " dress " is made up of initial consonant " zh " and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable " uang ", and spelling is imported and need be imported 6 letters one by one, is selecting in the word in unison at last) that needs 7 times at most operation can be finished a Chinese character.So, adopt the speed of double-spelling Chinese character input method input Chinese character faster than adopting all-phonetic input method undoubtedly.Adopt the selection scheme of the present invention's design, because options that need not be all and key position are irrelevant, the use of the double-spelling Chinese character input method of being more convenient for, the input method of other types also is (having offset secondary operation again) like this.
Because the operating key position is few, single hand-held set of being more convenient for, one-handed performance is not easy fatigue.
Technical scheme 2:
The choice menus of character string input operation sometimes can be very long, if use roller to move menu pointer by the anglec of rotation of roller, the rotation amount of roller can be bigger, particularly when the operation wheel rim major part of using roller shown in Figure 1 is hidden in the roller of first kind of mounting means of enclosure interior, may need repeatedly to stir the menu item that roller can move on to menu pointer needs, complex operation not only, and expend time in.Below technical scheme can be with small rotation amount fast moving menu pointer.
Use roller to move one of method of menu pointer:
A kind of method that moves menu pointer with roller, this method is fit to have roller and at least one determines that key or at least one are used to send the handheld electronic or the control electronics use of the button of determining instruction, and the selection instruction that especially is fit to the continued operation of similar character string input is used.
When using roller to carry out selection operation, an outside menu is set, a built-in menu;
Outside menu is the menu that the operator need carry out selection operation, and the parameter so that the time moves as menu pointer whenever reaches a unit interval, and menu pointer moves once, and the unit interval preestablishes (unit interval in the content afterwards also is like this);
Built-in menu then is used to adjust the amount that the moving direction of menu pointer and the unit interval (preestablishing a plurality of unit interval) of moving or pointer once move, the built-in menu pointer is with the rotation amount of the roller moving parameter as the built-in menu pointer, the every rotation one unit angle of roller, the adjustment of built-in menu pointer once, the unit angle preestablishes (later content is same);
If the anglec of rotation of roller is a positive dirction, outside menu pointer forward moves, if the anglec of rotation of roller is a negative direction, outside menu pointer negative sense moves.
Adjust the angular zone that internal pointer moves if the rotation amount of roller surpasses, carry out outside pen travel instruction or stop outside menu pointer transfer as an execution continuation with current internal pointer specific items.
The operating process of carrying out selection operation with the technical program is as follows:
One of:
Step 1101: open menu, menu pointer points to first term, changes step 1102 over to;
Step 1102: start timing program, change step 1103 over to;
Step 1103: current state is reached display show, change step 1104 over to;
Step 1104: signal is determined in monitoring, if definite signal is arranged, changes step 1112 over to; If do not determine signal, change step 1105 over to;
Illustrate: determining that signal is sent by switchgear, can be the switchgear that is triggered by roller, also can be switchgear independently.
Step 1105: the monitoring rotating signal, if rotating signal is arranged, change step 1106 over to, if there is not rotating signal, change step 1108 over to;
Step 1106: judge sense of rotation, the accumulation rotation amount changes step 1107 over to;
Illustrate: by different sense of rotation accumulation rotation amounts, the accumulation rotation amount is distinguished sense of rotation with positive negative value.
Step 1107: relatively accumulate rotation amount and unit rotation amount, if accumulation rotation amount less than one unit quantity changes step 1108 over to; If the accumulation rotation amount reaches a unit quantity, accumulation one rotation unit value deducts a unit rotation amount from the accumulation rotation amount, change step 1110 over to;
Illustrate: the rotation unit quantity is the anglec of rotation of setting, rotation unit value is the number that roller departs from reference position rotation unit quantity, also is directive, is 5 degree such as the rotation unit quantity, roller has rotated-10 degree with respect to reference position at present, and current rotation unit value is-2.
Step 1108: relatively accumulated time and current pointer stop duration, if the not enough current pointer of accumulated time stops duration, change step 1104 over to; Stop duration if reach current pointer, change step 1109 over to;
Illustrate: " pointer " that pointer stops duration is outside menu pointer.
Step 1109: press current pointer adjustment amount and direction and adjust pointer, change step 1102 over to;
Step 1110: judge whether super extreme value of current accumulation rotation value, if, change step 1108 or step 1104 over to above extreme value; If not super extreme value changes step 1111 over to;
Illustrate: internal pointer can not infinitely be adjusted, and can only be confined in certain angular zone, and extreme value is the extreme position of two angular zones.After the super extreme value, the built-in menu pointer is constant, continues to move outside menu pointer, changes 1108 over to; If stop mobile menu pointer, change 1104 over to.
Step 1111: adjust pointer by current accumulation rotation value and stop duration and direction, change step 1112 over to;
Illustrate: adjust the built-in menu pointer.
Step 1112: carry out selected instruction.
This method only needs the low-angle swing roller, just can mobile menu pointer, and the angle difference of rotation, the speed difference that pointer is adjusted under the long situation of menu bar, can find required menu item fast by adjusting pen travel speed.
Among the present invention all parts that relate to roller rotation all with real-time angular displacement as parameter; can change mutually between position, angle and the angular displacement in real time in real time; so will be based on the method for the invention; replace the system of selection of real-time angular displacement with position, real-time angle, also within protection domain of the present invention as the roller rotation parameter.
Two:
Step 1201: open menu, menu pointer points to first term, changes step 1202 over to;
Step 1202: start timing program, change step 1203 over to;
Step 1203: current state is reached display show, change step 1204 over to;
Step 1204: signal is determined in monitoring, if definite signal is arranged, changes step 1212 over to; If do not determine signal, change step 1205 over to;
Step 1205: the monitoring rotating signal, if rotating signal is arranged, change step 1206 over to, if there is not rotating signal, change step 1208 over to;
Step 1206: judge sense of rotation, the accumulation rotation amount changes step 1207 over to;
Step 1207: relatively accumulate rotation amount and unit rotation amount, if accumulation rotation amount less than one unit quantity changes step 1208 over to; If the accumulation rotation amount reaches a unit quantity, accumulation one rotation unit value deducts a unit rotation amount from the accumulation rotation amount, change step 1210 over to;
Step 1208: relatively accumulated time and current pointer stop duration, if the not enough current pointer of accumulated time stops duration, change step 4 over to; Stop duration if reach current pointer, change step 1209 over to;
Step 1209: press current pointer adjustment amount and direction and adjust pointer, change step 1202 over to;
Step 1210: judge whether super extreme value of current accumulation rotation value, if, change step 1208 or step 1204 over to above extreme value; If not super extreme value changes step 1211 over to;
Illustrate: changing step 1208 over to is to continue to move outside pointer, and internal pointer is a current pointer, and just rotation amount surpasses extreme value pointer before; Changing 1204 over to is to stop outside pen travel; In general, the roller rotation amount is big more, and outside pen travel is fast more, stops pen travel when surmounting extreme value, can be the operator and observes pointer position and provide convenience.
Step 1211: adjust pointer adjustment amount and direction by current accumulation rotation value, change step 2 over to;
Illustrate: scheme 1 is adjusted the pointer residence time, this programme is adjusted the once mobile transfer amount of pointer or the paces of pen travel, the pointer of scheme 1 all is transferred to successive term at every turn, and the pointer of this programme can be skipped successive term even multinomial fast moving by the difference of internal pointer.
Step 1212: carry out selected instruction.
This method is identical with method 1 effect, difference is that scheme 1 is adjusted pen travel speed by adjusting pointer between the stopping time, this programme is adjusted the speed of pen travel by adjusting the once mobile amount of pointer, and the pointer residence time is constant, helps the operator and checks pointer position.
Use roller move menu pointer method two:
A kind of method that moves menu pointer with roller, this method is fit to have roller and at least one determines that key or at least one are used to send the handheld electronic or the control electronics use of the button of determining instruction, and the selection instruction that especially is fit to the continued operation of similar character string input is used.
When using roller to carry out selection operation, an outside menu is set, a built-in menu; Outside menu is the menu that the operator need carry out selection operation, and the parameter so that the time moves as menu pointer whenever reaches a unit interval, and menu pointer moves once in each menu item;
Built-in menu then is used to adjust the moving direction of menu pointer and the unit quantity or the outside menu pointer residence time of moving, the built-in menu pointer is with the rotation amount of the roller moving parameter as the built-in menu pointer, the every rotation one unit angle of roller, the adjustment of built-in menu pointer is once;
If the anglec of rotation of roller is a positive dirction, outside menu pointer forward moves, if the anglec of rotation of roller is a negative direction, outside menu pointer negative sense moves;
If the angular zone that the internal pointer of surpass adjusting the rotation amount of roller moves is then with the rotation amount of the roller moving parameter as outside menu pointer;
The outside menu pointer that moves with two different parameters can be same menu pointer, also can be different menu pointers; If different menu pointers is closed and opens corresponding menu when two pointers replace.
Illustrate: this programme can rotate mobile menu pointer with wide-angle and low-angle, and these two kinds of different menu pointers that rotation mode moved can be same, also can be two.If two menu pointers advise that these two menu pointers are two kinds of different move modes of same project, when being used for picture and selecting, the menu pointer that moves with the time is a browsing mode, every a unit interval, changes a pictures and shows; The menu pointer that moves with rotation amount is quick selection mode, directly selects a certain picture to open.
The operating process of carrying out selection operation with the technical program is as follows:
Step 1301: open menu, menu pointer points to first term, changes step 1302 over to;

Step 1307: relatively accumulate total rotation amount and internal pointer rotation amount extreme value, exceed extreme value, change step 1311 over to if accumulate total rotation amount; Do not exceed extreme value if accumulate total rotation amount, change step 1308 over to;
Illustrate: identical with 1110 effects.
Step 1308: the accumulation rotation amount, relatively accumulate rotation amount and unit rotation amount, if the not enough unit of accumulation rotation amount rotation amount changes step 1309 over to; If the accumulation rotation amount reaches the unit rotation amount, change step 1310 over to;
Step 1309: relatively accumulated time and current pointer stop duration, stop duration if accumulated time meets or exceeds current pointer, and menu pointer is transferred to the built-in menu specific items, change step 1302 over to; If the not enough current pointer of accumulated time stops duration, change step 1304 over to;
Step 1310: accumulate unit rotation value, from the accumulation rotation amount, deduct a unit rotation amount, adjust pointer shift direction and the pointer residence time or pointer transfer amount, change step 1302 over to by current accumulation unit rotation value;
Step 1311: the accumulation rotation amount, relatively accumulate rotation amount and unit rotation amount, if accumulation rotation amount less than one unit rotation amount changes step 1304 over to; If the accumulation rotation amount meets or exceeds a unit rotation amount, from the accumulation rotation amount, deduct a unit quantity, menu pointer is transferred to successive term, change step 1302 over to;
Illustrate: the unit rotation amount can be identical with 1308 unit rotation amount, also can be different;
The menu pointer that moves can be same with 1309 menu pointers that move, and also can be another menu bar, if two menus move different pointers, notes showing different menus when switching pointer.
Step 1312: carry out selected instruction.
Illustrate: this method is the expansion of method 1, if rotation amount is no more than the angular zone of built-in menu pen travel, the move mode of menu pointer is identical with method 1, when rotation amount surpasses the angular zone that menu pointer moves, then is that parameter moves menu pointer with the rotation amount.

Step 1405: the monitoring rotating signal, if rotating signal is arranged, change step 1406 over to, if there is not rotating signal, change step 1408 over to;
Step 1406: judge sense of rotation, the accumulation rotation amount changes step 1407 over to;
Step 1407: relatively accumulate rotation amount and unit rotation amount, if accumulation rotation amount less than one unit quantity changes step 1408 over to; If the accumulation rotation amount reaches a unit quantity, accumulation one rotation unit value deducts a unit rotation amount from the accumulation rotation amount, change step 1410 over to;
Step 1408: relatively accumulated time and current pointer stop duration, if the not enough current pointer of accumulated time stops duration, change step 4 over to; Stop duration if reach current pointer, change step 1409 over to;
Step 1409: judge that whether the current pointer moving direction surmounts extreme value, changes step 1402 over to if surmount extreme value; If do not surmount extreme value, mobile menu pointer is adjusted duty one unit quantity; Change step 1402 over to;
Illustrate: the menu selection that can circulate, the duty adjustment that can not circulate, the volume of televisor can not skip to maximal value from 0.
Step 1410: judge whether super extreme value of current accumulation rotation value, if, change step 1408 or step 1404 over to above extreme value; If not super extreme value changes step 1411 over to;
Step 1411: adjust the pointer residence time and direction by current accumulation rotation value, change step 2 over to;
Step 1412: finish to adjust instruction.
Illustrate: only be the 9th step and the 11st step with the difference of first flow process of the technical program method 1, all menus proposed by the invention select the corresponding steps of flow processs to do same replacement, also can change over duty adjustment instruction.
