Or edit the input operation in both hands. In addition, the intelligent editing input function is provided, so that the text combination unit built in the electronic device automatically combines the symbols in the symbol group for the user to quickly select. To achieve the above object, one of the more broad aspects of the present invention provides an edit input system and method for the electronic device. The electronic device includes a display panel and a direction indicating unit, and the editing input method includes: (a) displaying a list of symbol groups on the display panel; and (b) indicating, by the direction indicating unit, a first direction to display the symbol group a group of symbols corresponding to the first direction in the group list; and (c) indicating, in the direction indicating unit, the second direction, to display a symbol corresponding to the second direction in the group of symbols, thereby utilizing The direction indicating unit performs an edit input on the electronic device. [Embodiment] 200928800 f The characteristics and advantages of the present case - some typical implementations are described in detail in the later section of the month. It should be understood that the present invention is capable of various modifications in various aspects, and that the description and the drawings are not intended to be illustrative, rather than limiting the present invention. The editing device and the method for the electronic device of the present invention can be applied to the sub-devices, and are not limited to 'including mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), accompanying discs, language translators, video players, satellite navigation devices, voice recorders, And the electronic device having the input function in the future can be applied to the technical solution of the present invention. The electronic device basically includes the display panel and the direction:::, wherein the type and size of the display panel are not limited, and the direction is The number and location of the lower yuan can be arranged according to actual needs. Please take the same as the electronic device of the direction indicating unit. First, the second = 2 map and the first table, which makes the second diagram of the case of the electronic device of the present invention to be edited and input, and Table 1 is a table. ; 佳 good implementation of the symbol, the symbol group and the symbol contrast direction / /: shown, wherein the electronic device 3 includes the display panel Μ and the display = ^ 疋 32 ' before starting the editing input, the symbol of the electronic device 3 The group clear group list (10), in this embodiment, the: "group-English word group (1) ^ sub-group G13, potted-born dog and mother-in-law 〇 G1S I female group G14, English alphabet group Group 2 = T group 〇 16, punctuation group G17 and direction symbol S1 t are placed in the middle of each group, and there is no limit to the direction in which the multi-directional symbol S1 is directed. However, 9 200928800 can be used. The number of groups is a basic consideration, so that each direction represents the group pointed to. When the user indicates the first direction D1 in the direction indicating unit 32, for example, the upper left direction, the display panel 31 can display the phase in the symbol group list G10. Corresponding to the symbol group of the first direction D1, such as the English alphabet a~e group G11 shown in Table 1, then the transmission direction indication unit 32 further indicates the second direction D2, for example, the same as the upper left direction of the first direction D1. , then, you can choose this The letter a~e group G11 corresponds to the symbol of the second direction D2, that is, the English letter a. In other words, if the user wants to input the English letter e, the left direction can be indicated on the direction indicating unit 32. Direction, and then when the English letter a~e group G11 is displayed, the right side is indicated on the direction indicating unit 32, so that the English letter e can be correctly input. Thus, the user can easily use the The direction indicating unit 32 is used to indicate the editing input in different directions. The electronic device with two direction indicating units is taken as an example. Please refer to the third figure and the second table at the same time, wherein the third figure is the second preferred embodiment of the present case. The electronic device performs a schematic diagram of editing input, and Table 2 is a symbol group list, a symbol group and a symbol comparison table of the second preferred embodiment. As shown in the third figure, in this embodiment, the electronic device 4 A display panel 41 and two direction indicating units 42 are included, wherein the display panel 41 includes a left display area 411 and a right display area 412 so that different display layers can be displayed on the display panel 41 at the same time. The right direction display unit 42 is respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the electronic device 4 for the user to simultaneously perform editing input using the right hand and the left hand. At the beginning, the right display area 412 of the display panel 41 can be set as a symbol. The group list G20 (shown in Table 2), the left display area 200928800 field 411 is set to the direction position group G29 in the symbol group list G20. Of course, the preset display group can be changed according to the user's needs. As shown in Table 2, this symbol group list G20 contains a total of 9 different groups, namely the phonetic symbol 勹-force group G21, the phonetic symbol group G22, the phonetic symbol worm-厶 group G23, the phonetic symbol丫~Group Q24, phonetic symbol bow ** group G25, case switching group Q26, tone symbol G27, punctuation group G28 and direction position group G29, the middle part ❹ Place multi-directional symbol S2 To separate points to different groups. If the user's dominant hand is the right hand, the first direction D3', for example, the right-right direction, may be indicated by the direction indicating unit 42 on the right side. At this time, the left display area 411 of the display panel displays the symbol group list G2. The symbol group corresponding to the first direction D3, that is, the phonetic symbol $-child group G25 shown in Table 2, the user can then indicate the second direction D4 by the direction indicating unit 42 on the left side, for example The left oblique direction is to select the symbol corresponding to the second direction D4 in the phonetic symbol bow-child group G25, that is, the phonetic symbol. In this way, the user can perform the edit input operation by using the two hands on the different display areas and the left and right direction indicating units 42 in the manner of using both hands. Obviously, for the user, because the left and right hands can be used to edit the input at the same time, the speed must be much faster than the traditional way of pressing the button continuously. When the user wants to input a newsletter or edit an email, the left and right hands can be used to quickly select the desired text, and more importantly, the editing input can be performed on the electronic device through the direction indicating unit, indicating that the electronic device is no longer The position of the basic button 12 needs to be prepared (as shown in Fig. (a)), then the 11 200928800 electronic device __ board is described, or relatively miniaturized. In the case of the step-by-step, the editing input system and method of the electronic device of the present invention can be edited and input by means of intelligent editing input. Please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a schematic diagram of the process of editing input of the electronic device according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in the fourth figure, because the electronic device of the case is more built-in text combination unit (not shown)式), according to the user, the symbol group can match the combined text by itself, so when the user wants to enter the English word, the direction indication unit 52 only needs to continuously indicate the group containing the 丨 symbol and In the direction of the "n" symbol group, the display panel 51 of the electronic device 5 can display various combinations including these symbols, such as g〇 or in", etc. to provide user selection, thereby speeding up the use. In the above embodiment, the direction indicating unit can be designed in the form of a button, a touch, a rocker or the like, and the number of directions that can be pointed is not limited, basically The number of groups can be considered as a matter of course, and the number and position are not limited, as long as they can be conveniently used by the user. The electronic device 3 shown in the second figure is taken as an example, and includes The direction indicating unit 32 is disposed at a position close to the bottom, and the editing input can be easily performed by one hand without the user's dominant hand being the right hand or the left hand. Taking the electronic device 4 shown in the second figure as an example, two The direction indicating unit 42 is disposed at a symmetrical position, and can be arbitrarily rotated when the electronic device 4 is used. Whether the electronic device 4 is completely inverted or edited and input can be performed without affecting the user. For the dominant hand, you can choose 12 200928800: two mode for editing input. In addition, edit the input rune letter or phonetic symbol, for example, the twist of the 曰 text η + mathematical symbols, emoji, tape symbol, And other different w texts and so on can be applied to the technology of this case.

❹ 小型的電子裝置具有本案所提供之技術後, 必可藉由方向指示單元來進行編輯與輸人,電子裝置表面 的基本按鍵,例如數字鍵或文字鍵等,也成為非必要的配 備。不需要以按壓按鍵來進行編輯後,就不會再因為同時 按下數個按鍵而發生感應錯誤的問題。另一方面由於不 需要再設立基本按鍵’電子裝置表面的部分空間就可供顯 示面板擴大使用,或者讓電子裝置本身的尺寸更加輕巧小 型化。當然,由於是透過顯示面板來看符號群組,使用者 不需要默記或注視按鍵上渺小的符號標記,就可以很清楚 地看到顯示面板上所顯示的符號然後做選取,對於較年長 的使用者來說更增加人性化設計與實用性。尤其是應用 本案技術之電子裝置可不必限制使用方向,以習知的電子 裝置而言(如第一圖(a)所示),因為按鍵與顯示面板的方向 已經固定,所以就不能任意旋轉,但如果是應用本案技術 所設計之電子裝置,因為不需要基本按鍵,又設置兩個以 上的方向指示單元於左右兩側,只要電子裝置内部裝設顯 示面板感測器,找出電子裝置目前使用的方向來控制顯示 面板的顯示方向,便不必再受限於按鍵與顯示面板的方向 便可多方向的使用電子裝置。更者,本案所提供的技術可 讓使用者左右手並用,不再受限於慣用手的差異,能更佳 13 200928800 快速完成符號的輸入與編輯。簡而言之,以指示方向來進 行符號的輸入與編輯,速度會加快,錯誤率也會大大降低, 顯示面板又可有足夠的空間擴大,輸入或編輯的符號種類 也可增加,對於目前的電子裝置來說可算是一大進步。是 以本案極具產業之價值,爰依法提出申請。 ❹ 縱使本發明已由上述之實施例詳細敘述而可由熟悉本 技藝之人士任施匠思而為諸般修飾,然皆不脫如附申請專 利範圍所欲保護者。 200928800 【圖式簡單說明】 第一圖(a):傳統手機之示意圖 第一圖(b):傳統PDA手機之示意圖。 第二圖:本案之第一較佳實施例之電子裝置進行編輯 輸入之流程示意圖。 第三圖··本案之第二較佳實施例之電子裝置進行編輯 輸入之流程示意圖。 ❹ 第四圖:本案之第三較佳實施例之電子裝置進行編輯 輸入之流程示意圖。 表一:第一較佳實施例之符號群組清單、符號群組與 符號對照表。 表二:第二較佳實施例之符號群組清單、符號群組與 符號對照表。 15 200928800小型 After the small electronic device has the technology provided in this case, it must be edited and input by the direction indicating unit. The basic buttons on the surface of the electronic device, such as numeric keys or text keys, are also unnecessary. It is no longer necessary to press the button to edit, and there is no longer a problem of inductive error caused by pressing several buttons at the same time. On the other hand, since it is not necessary to set up a basic button, a part of the space on the surface of the electronic device can be used to expand the display panel, or the size of the electronic device itself can be made smaller and smaller. Of course, since the symbol group is viewed through the display panel, the user does not need to memorize or look at the small symbol mark on the button, so that the symbol displayed on the display panel can be clearly seen and then selected, for the older The user adds more humanized design and practicality. In particular, the electronic device using the technology of the present invention does not need to limit the direction of use. In the case of the conventional electronic device (as shown in the first figure (a)), since the direction of the button and the display panel is already fixed, it cannot be rotated arbitrarily. However, if the electronic device designed by the technology of the present invention is applied, since two or more direction indicating units are disposed on the left and right sides without the basic button, as long as the display panel sensor is installed inside the electronic device, the electronic device is currently used. The direction of the display panel is controlled to control the display panel, so that the electronic device can be used in multiple directions without being limited by the direction of the button and the display panel. What's more, the technology provided in this case allows users to use both right and left hands, no longer limited by the difference in dominant hands, and better. 13 200928800 Quickly complete the input and editing of symbols. In short, the input and editing of symbols in the direction of the direction will increase the speed, the error rate will be greatly reduced, and the display panel can have enough space to expand, and the types of symbols input or edited can also be increased. Electronic devices can be a big step forward. In this case, the value of this case is extremely industrial, and the application is made according to law. 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 200928800 [Simple description of the diagram] The first picture (a): schematic diagram of the traditional mobile phone Figure (b): Schematic diagram of the traditional PDA mobile phone.
