Definitions
- touchscreen interfaces are an important differentiating feature for computing devices and other electronics as they tend to offer intuitive interaction with software integrated therein.
- touchscreen interfaces should provide a complete software experience that can manipulate the software to achieve all the functionality available to conventional input device.
- touch-na ⁇ ve applications a significant amount of provided software has not been designed with touch in mind, referred to hereinafter as touch-na ⁇ ve applications.
- the scrolling functionality is not entirely integrated with a touchscreen interface. That is, the ability to scroll through content by applying a drag operation on a content region within the display area is not available to a touchscreen interface. Instead, typically, mouse users scroll content via conventional mouse inputs applied to the scrollbar, and keyboard users either use page up or page down, a keyboard shortcut like ctrl-end, or switch to using the mouse.
- gesture-interpretation techniques for controlling scrolling functionality of touch-na ⁇ ve applications would enhance a user's experience in panning content upon applying particular gestures (e.g., a drag operation at the content region of a display area) to the touchscreen interface.
- particular gestures e.g., a drag operation at the content region of a display area
- panning messages are generated in accordance with the touches detected at the touch interface. Otherwise, touch input at the touch interface generates mouse messages.
- Embodiments of the present invention provide computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, and a computer system for making accessible scrolling functionality of touch-na ⁇ ve applications to users of touchscreen interfaces.
- techniques for controlling scrolling functionality of touch-na ⁇ ve applications upon receiving an indication of a particular gesture (e.g., a drag operation at the content region of a display area) at a touchscreen interface are provided.
- a method for panning content within a display area presented on a UI display of a computing device is provided. Initially, a user-initiated input applied to the touchscreen interface is detected and actuation information from the touchscreen interface is provided to an operating system.
- the touchscreen information includes a touch location and a gesture.
- the application is identified as supporting scrolling functionality.
- the operating system invokes a gesture -interpretation procedure to determine whether to pan the content within the display area, to pan the display area within the UI display, or perform another operation.
- the gesture- interpretation procedure includes, but is not limited to, ascertaining that the touch location occurred within a content region of the display area surfaced at the touchscreen interface, and recognizing the gesture as a drag operation by disambiguating the drag operation from a tap-type operation based on a distance of an uninterrupted drag-movement from the actuation location.
- the content within the content region is rendered by a touch- na ⁇ ve application integrated within the computing device, where the touch-na ⁇ ve application is not built to recognize drag operations within the content region as an indication to pan the content.
- the content is panned within the content region of the display area according to the drag operation.
- An indication of panning the content may be presented to a user at the touchscreen interface or any other presentation component.
- FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an exemplary computing environment suitable for use in implementing embodiments of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an exemplary system architecture suitable for use in implementing embodiments of the present invention, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 3 is a diagrammatic view of a display area on a touchscreen interface illustrating a method for panning content therein, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 are progressive drag operation depictions illustrating stages of performing the drag operation that switches from panning content to invoking a secondary action, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention.
- Embodiments of the present invention provide computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, a computer system, and computerized methods for panning content within a content region of a display area rendered by a touch-na ⁇ ve application that supports scrolling functionality by applying a gesture (e.g., drag operation) at a touchscreen interface.
- a gesture e.g., drag operation
- the embodiments of the present invention provide one or more computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method for panning content within a display area presented at a touchscreen interface disposed on a computing device.
- the method includes detecting a user-initiated input applied to the touchscreen interface, and receiving actuation information from the touchscreen interface.
- the actuation information comprises a touch location and a gesture (e.g., single- finger contact within the touchscreen interface, interaction of a stylus or pen with the touchscreen interface, and the like).
- the method may further include ascertaining that the touch location occurred within a content region of the display area surfaced at the touchscreen interface.
- the display area may be rendered by an application integrated within an operating system of the computing device. Often, the application is touch-na ⁇ ve, that is, unable to interpret gestures applied at the touchscreen interface upon attempting to manipulate scrolling or selection of the surfaced content.
- the gesture is recognized by the system as a drag operation by disambiguating the drag operation from a tap-type operation based on a distance of an uninterrupted movement of the gesture from the actuation location of the user-initiated input at the touchscreen interface.
- the uninterrupted movement includes a sweep of the touchscreen interface that overcomes a threshold distance in a predefined Cartesianal direction.
- the gesture may facilitate panning the content within the content region of the display area according to the drag operation.
- An indication of panning the content may be presented at the touchscreen interface.
- presenting an indication of panning content may include revealing a translation of content within the content region, or demonstrating a movement of the display area at the UI display.
- touch panning is not meant to be limiting but may encompass any use action that initiates scrolling functionality of an application.
- touch panning includes a user action of scrolling through a page or list by touching the content region and performing a drag operation in order to make the content move in substantial correspondence with a contact translation of the drag operation.
- touch panning may invoke a mouse drag. That is, if the application includes content that is vertically or horizontally scrollable, panning messages are provided thereto. Otherwise, mouse messages are generated.
- the mouse messages may trigger a drag action that moves the display area within the UI display, instead of panning content.
- This translation of the display area across the screen may be similar to a drag action implemented by a mouse message generated upon detecting a click+hold+drag operation of a convention mouse. As such, interference with applications that do not scroll is avoided.
- a gesture-recognition procedure for recognizing gestures encompassed by a user-initiated input on a touchscreen display, or other tactile-input device, as either a drag operation or a tap-type operation may be implemented.
- the drag operation is disambiguated from the tap-type operation based on a distance of an uninterrupted movement.
- the phrase "uninterrupted movement" is not meant to be limiting and may encompass any constant sweep, quasi-continuous input, or recursive chain of inputs that replicate a dragged contact across a surface of a touchscreen interface.
- the uninterrupted movement may include contact between a physical object (e.g., stylus, pen, portion or pad of a finger, and the like) and the touchscreen interface.
- a physical object e.g., stylus, pen, portion or pad of a finger, and the like
- a panning mode is invoked.
- the operating system provides panning messages to an application rendering the content, as opposed to mouse messages that often do not initiate panning of content with the content region.
- a panning mode is invoked, regardless of whether the application supports vertical and/or horizontal scrolling.
- Horizontal drag movements would generate mouse messages, even if the application supported horizontal scrolling. Accordingly, a user could still achieve horizontal panning by starting with a vertical drag and then changing direction. In other words, vertical drags become pans, while horizontal drags become mouse drags. As such a consistent movement experience is introduced that triggers the panning mode for most applications.
- the gesture-recognition procedure is configured to perform the steps of ascertaining whether the touch location occurred within a content region of a display area surfaced at the touchscreen interface, where the display area is rendered by the application, and ascertaining whether the drag operation satisfies predefined system metrics in sequence or in parallel. If the touch location occurs within the content region and the drag operation satisfies predefined system metrics, the application enters a panning mode that supports scrolling functionality of content within the content region of the display area. Otherwise the application is retained in a default mode. In one aspect of the default mode, raw inputs associated with the gesture are allowed to flow from the touchscreen interface to the application as if it were a mouse input. In another aspect, the default mode induces the application to operate in a manner similar to the operation of a touch-naive application. The application may be stored consistent with either the panning mode or the default mode.
- the invention relates to interpreting gestures received at a touchscreen interface and providing messages to an application based on the interpretation.
- application is not meant to be limiting but may include any software or program operably controlled by an operating system, where the operating system receives input information from the touchscreen interface upon detecting a user-initiated input.
- the application may be a third-party application that renders scrollable content at a presentation component and/or touchscreen interface.
- the application is considered to support scrolling functionality.
- scrolling functionality may be detected if a scrollbar tool is surfaced within the display area at the UI display.
- the application is gesture-aware.
- Gesture-aware applications are a class of applications designed with touch in mind and behave normally without interpreting gestures at a touchscreen interface and communicating the gestures in specific messages to the application. As such, gesture-aware applications are generally optimized with touch in mind, and can receive raw inputs from the touchscreen interface.
- the application is touch-na ⁇ ve, which accounts for a majority of the applications existing in the current commercial marketplace.
- a touch-na ⁇ ve application is one where panning features (e.g., accessing the scrolling functionality by inputs on the touchscreen interface within the content region) are not built, implemented, or written into the application. That is, the application is unaware that it is cooperating with touchscreen inputs, and, in particular, that the gestures performed at the touchscreen interface are attempting to pan content being rendered thereby.
- the na ⁇ ve-touch application may be a legacy application (e.g., Notepad) in which the scrolling functionality for panning content is only invoked by providing an input at the scrollbar control.
- aspects of the invention facilitate incorporating touch-panning capability into touch-naive applications, and is well suited for deployment in an operating system that comprises an ecosystem of touch-naive applications.
- the operating system may function as an interface that interconnects the touchscreen interface and the touch-naive applications, thereby managing the communication therebetween.
- appropriate commands in the form of messages (e.g., mouse messages or scrolling messages) may be passed to the touch-naive applications in order to properly adjust the presentation of content.
- managing via the operating system generally allows the operating system to make most existing touch-na ⁇ ve applications touch friendly.

- This operating-system structure of the operating system 220 is but one example of a suitable structure that may be run on the computing device 215, and is not intended to suggest any limitation as to the scope of use or functionality of the invention. Neither should the illustrated operating system 220 be interpreted as having any dependency or requirement relating to any one or combination of the components 205, 210, 225, 226, 280, or 250 as illustrated. In some embodiments, one or more of the components 205, 210, 225, 226, 280, or 250 may be implemented as stand-alone applications. In other embodiments, one or more of the components 205, 210, 225, 226, 280, or 250 may be integrated directly into the display device 221 of the computing device 215, the application 230, or a combination thereof.
- the application-interface component 250 may be housed in association with the display device 221. It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the components 205, 210, 225, 226, 280, or 250 illustrated in FIG. 2 are exemplary in nature and in number and should not be construed as limiting.
- FIG. 2 Any number of components may be employed to achieve the desired functionality within the scope of embodiments of the present invention.
- the various components of FIG. 2 are shown with lines for the sake of clarity, in reality, delineating various components/elements is not so clear, and metaphorically, the lines would more accurately be grey or fuzzy.
- some components and devices of FIG. 2 are depicted as single blocks, the depictions are exemplary in nature and in number and are not to be construed as limiting (e.g., although only one display device 215 is shown, many more may be operably coupled to the computing device 210, thereby functioning in conjunction to present the UI display 225).
- the input component 205 is configured to receive the input information 245 from the touchscreen interface.
- the input information 245 may be derived from an input 290.
- the input 290 may comprise a user-initiated physical contact when a user touches (e.g., single-finger gesture touch) the touchscreen interface.
- the input information 245 includes a location of an actuation at the touchscreen interface (e.g., Cartesian coordinate position) and data related to a gesture (e.g., distance of uninterrupted movement, direction of movement, duration of actuation, and the like).
- This input information 245 may be pre- processed by a screen driver (not shown) that passes data to the input component 205.
- the input component 205 may then process the input information 205 before sending to the gesture engine 280.
- the scrollbar finder component 210 makes the determination of whether the application 230 supports scrolling functionality. In one instance the determination is preformed by sniffing the application in order to recognize if a scrollbar tool exists within the display area 223. If the application 230 supports scrolling functionality, then scrolling messages may be sent to the application to perform panning movements of content based on a drag operation of a received gesture. Otherwise, standard "mouse messages" are provided to the application 230.
- the mouse messages are the unfiltered input 295 provided to a touch-na ⁇ ve application (i.e., not configured for accepting gestures at a touchscreen interface) that controls the application in a similar fashion to what would be expected from using a mouse tool.
- the gesture engine 280 is configured to determine tells which gesture is being performed by the user at the computing device 215. For instance, the gesture engine 280 is capable of processing a continuous, uninterrupted movement of a gesture and/or a duration of the gesture utilizing a timer. If the duration of the gesture does not comprise a distance of uninterrupted movement above a predefined distance or does not meet a predefined threshold time period, the gesture is considered a tap-type operation (e.g., tap simulating a mouse click). Otherwise, the gesture is considered a drag operation. [0047] In embodiments, the gesture engine 280 disambiguates between a pan and a standard action.
- the gesture engine 280 looks at the UI display of the application 230 to determine if the user is dragging within a scrollable content region.
- techniques and approaches to identify whether the actuation location, or touch point that contacts the touchscreen interface, occurs within a scrolling content region are employed. If the actuation location is within the content region and a drag operation is recognized, instead of sending mouse messages, scrolling messages are sent to the application 230.
- a vertical drag operation may invoke pan messages that trigger panning up or down, while a horizontal drag operation may invoke mouse messages that select text within the content region, slide the window on the screen, cut and/or paste, etc.
- a horizontal drag operation may invoke pan messages that trigger panning side -to-side, while a vertical drag operation may invoke mouse messages.
- the content in the content region scrolls with the user's finger as s/he performs a drag.
- this approach allows users to drag their finger on a content area to pan, and use a different gestures to drag or select within the content regions. For instance, users can pan through a list of items in a file explorer menu by dragging a finger over a surface file list, and then perform a different gesture to select and move a file (e.g., perform a touch point on the title bar or border of the display area 230).
- mouse messages are sent to the application, utilizing the application interface component 250, such that dragging with the finger acts the same as clicking and dragging with the mouse.
- This allows users to drag or pan the display area 223 around screen (e.g., UI display), drag a slider of the scrollable content region, rearrange desktop icons, etc.
- the gesture engine 280 filters the input by providing appropriate messages 235 to the application 230. The scrollable content, when dragged in scrollable direction, will move with a contact point on the touchscreen interface.
- an averaging mechanism is applied to erratic, or unintentional, movements within a gesture in order to smooth the movements of the content.
- the user is provided with an indication that panning content is available upon viewing a scrollbar tool rendered at the display area 223.
- the user will intuitively drag with one finger to pan the content (e.g., page within a document, or map within a viewer).
- the content pans in the appropriate direction. Panning continues until the user lifts their finger, or interrupts a continuous movement of the drag operation.
- panning the content may drive the slider of the scrollbar control in order to provide visual feedback that panning is being performed (e.g., automatically moves the scroll bar for the user).
- this management of the input 295 to control the panning of content rendered by the application 230 is capable of interacting with various implementations of scrollbars.
- the gesture engine 280 deciphers what type of gesture is occurring, where the gesture is originating, and whether other attributes of the gesture are available. Upon interpreting this information, the selection component 226 is configured to recognize an appropriate action, mapped to the deciphered gesture. This appropriate action is provided to the application interface component 250, which sends an appropriate message 235 to the application 230. For instance, if the gesture engine determines that the user is dragging on a non-scrollable portion of the display area, a normal left mouse drag action is invoked via the mapping. If the user drags in a direction that does not scroll (e.g., perpendicular to the scrollbar control), a left mouse drag, typically becoming selection or drag and drop in an application, occurs. Alternately, a user may select content by performing a hold then drag gesture in order to invoke a conventional left mouse drag action.
- a user drags a finger, or physical object 290, in a content region of the display area 223 (e.g., window generated by Internet Explorer, a media player, a notepad document, Word, Outlook, a start menu, a control panel, or other application-surfaced UI) in the same general direction as a scrollbar tool (e.g., up and down for a vertical scrollbar tool)
- the content e.g., folder list, email list, grouped email list, scrolling font list
- the content should pan under the finger.
- the content of the selected display area 223, where the drag initiated should be affected. As such, no other content in other panes should scroll or show hover states regardless where the drag travels.
- the gesture engine 280 feeds a stream of communication to the application 223 to ensure that the application 223 treats the input 295 in a special way.
- the selection component 226 is configured to select an appropriate action to send to the application-interface component 250 based on the input information 245.
- the selection component 226 is configured to determine when the user pans past the end of a scrolling region and provide an over-panning action that provides visual feedback to let the user know the s/he has reached the limit on available scrollable content.
- the over-panning action moves the entire window in the direction that the user is sliding their finger on the touchscreen interface.
- this visual feedback of causing the entire display area 223 to move may be implemented, or scaled, to manipulate a legacy application.
- the over-panning action of moving the display area on the UI display can be implemented without cooperation from, or reciprocation by, the application 230. Accordingly, the over-panning action provides a clear indication that the scrolling functionality is available, but that the end of the page has been reached.
- the over-panning action provides an assistive behavior for alerting a user no further content is located in the direction of the drag operation. Also, the over-panning action provides a teaching behavior that is able to teach a user how to control content movement when panning.
- the mistake of panning in the opposite direction as a user intended occurs because dragging a finger in the content region typically moves the content in a direction opposite to pulling a slider of a scrollbar tool in that same direction. Specifically, when at the top of a document, new users will often drag their finger in a downward direction because they are used to that applying a downward motion when operating the scrollbar tool.
- an over-panning action is described, it should be understood and appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that other types of suitable over-panning actions that provide visual or audio feedback to a user that communicates the scrolling functionality is available may be employed, and that embodiments of the present invention are not limited to those over-panning actions described herein.
- the use of an over-panning action uniquely fits into a windowing multitasking system (i.e., ability to have many windows on the screen) where each running application lives within one or more display areas surfaced on the UI display.
- this over-panning action may be triggered if the user "tosses" a page (i.e., applies a dramatic drag operation) such that the page scrolls to the end of the scrollable content in the content region.
- Tossing provides the user with the ability to initially move the content under the control of the drag operation and then, upon cessation of the drag operation, automatically continuing panning the content and/or sliding the display area 223 as if the content had mass and was moving with inertia.
- the correction component 225 is configured to provide a tolerance for drift in dragging when a direction substantially aligned with the scrollbar tool. For instance, when the user starts panning (e.g., by dragging upward within a scrollable content area), the selection component 226 will pan the page in the up and down direction, even if the user drifts slightly left or right a small amount when attempting to scroll vertically. Stated another way, users are able to pan vertically (i.e., directly up/down), or horizontally (e.g., directly to the left/right) even when the drag motion of their finger does not move exactly in those directions as the drag operation is performed. This feature may be turned off if the user-preference is such that panning diagonally is more efficient. However, typically the correction component 225 is active because panning content in the content region either directly up or down, or laterally, is less distracting and a more conventional/intuitive movement for viewing.
- the correction component 225 notices the wiggle and/or drift of the drag and dampens these inputs such that the content pans in a straight line, that is, as if on rails.
- dampening is performed by determining a principle axis of the direction of the drag operation. The ancillary movement in the non-principle axis is then filtered to assist in scrolling the particular direction of the drag operation. Accordingly, users are provided with a degree of tolerance when dragging, which facilitates panning in an intuitive and appeasing fashion.
- threshold boundaries may be associated with the principle axis which are defined such that a significant ancillary movement (e.g., a perpendicular drag when the principle axis is vertical) will trigger a secondary action, such as selecting content located proximate to the touch point. That is, if the user drags far enough from the principle axis, a secondary action may be invoked. Accordingly, by directionally controlling the drag in a non- principle axis, a user is able to impose direction-specific behaviors, such as selecting text.
- a significant ancillary movement e.g., a perpendicular drag when the principle axis is vertical
- the dampening applied by the correction component 225 to the drag operation may be deactivated such that the user may freely pan in the direction that corresponds with their actual gesture. That is, the correction component 225, upon detection a threshold amount of drift, may switch the action from controlled panning to panning based on actual gesture movement. Or, a user may override the panning behavior (i.e., exit the panning mode) by overcoming a threshold amount of drift when applying a gesture. Upon the user to overriding the panning behavior, s/he can perform "normal drag operations," such as mouse-drag type operations.
- a user may perform at least the following operations on a touchscreen interface to execute the secondary actions: press and hold for a predetermined duration of time, then drag; perform a double tap-type operation (within a particular time frame), then drag; or provide a multi-touch input, such as a two-finger drag.
- Other operations that a user may perform inside a scrollable content region to invoke the secondary actions may include dragging from left to right in display area that is limited to upward and downward scrolling.
- the application 230 Upon processing the secondary action, the application 230 will behave as if a user was clicking and dragging with a mouse. Generally, this secondary action is useful for selecting text within an application.
- the application interface component may send mouse messages rather than scrolling messages to the application 230.
- a user can press and hold, and then drag in order to temporarily disable the panning behavior. Once disabled, the user is free to use drag operations to perform secondary actions instead without invoking the panning mode. For instance, an input interpreted as press+hold+drag may invoke a secondary action that facilitates a selection gesture while temporarily stopping panning.
- a received input gesture that is interpreted as a press+hold+release may disable the scrolling functionality (i.e., temporarily or permanently deactivating the panning mode), and allow the user to perform mouse drags (e.g., triggering a selection), such as copying an address in a webpage or moving a file into a folder.
- FIG. 3 a diagrammatic view 300 of a display area 328 on a touchscreen interface 320 that illustrates a method for panning content therein is shown, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
- the computing device 215, or another computing device e.g., computing device 100
- the touchscreen interface 320 is configured for surfacing display areas 328, 337, and 341 on a UI display 305.
- a drag operation 335 is shown being applied by a physical object 315 (e.g., a single-finger gesture) within a content region 325.
- the drag operation 335 will pan content 327 in the direction 333 that the drag operation 335 is traveling (e.g., translating substantially downward as illustrating).
- the drag operation includes a point of origination 334, or a location of actuation as described above, and a touch point 336.
- the scrollbar tool 329 may provide visual feedback of the panning operation.
- the drag operation 335 is a gesture moving in a generally downward direction. Accordingly, the content 327 will correspondingly pan in the downward direction 333, thus moving with the physical object 315.
- the scrollbar tool 329 may provide visual feedback that downward panning is occurring by automatically moving a slider 332 in an upward direction 331 from a previous location 330.
- an over- panning action may be invoked.
- the over-panning action may include translating the display area 328 downward within the UI display 305.
- the corrective component 225 of FIG. 2 is active, the content 327 may scroll in a substantially vertical direction 333 even when the drag operation 335 includes a slight drift.
- the underlying application Upon providing an input at the display area 328, the underlying application is activated. Because the application underlying the display area 328 is active, while the application underlying display areas 337 and 341 are dormant, the display areas 337 and 341 are unreceptive to inputs during panning in the display area 328. For instance, if the drag operation 335 continued from touch point 336 into a content region 338 of the display area 337, content within the display area 338 would not pan. Instead, panning in the vertical direction 333 may cease as the physical object 315 overruns the lower edge of the content region 325. Or, the entire display area 328 may slide downward across the UI display 305 to indicate the occurrence of an overrun.
- the display area 337 includes a horizontal scrollbar tool 339.
- a horizontal drag operation in the content region 338 will cause a panning action, while a vertical drag operation in the content region 338 invokes a secondary action, such as a selection function to highlight text in the content region 338.
- the display area 340 does not include a scrollbar. Accordingly, the user is visually notified that the application underlying the display area 340 does not support scrolling functionality. Accordingly, a drag operation within a boundary 341 of the display area 340 will cause the display area 340 to translate across the UI display 305 in connection with a movement of the physical object 315. Alternatively, to initiate a translation of the display area 328, an actuation location of a gesture should occur outside the content region 325, such as within a border/title bar 326 of the display area 328. [0066] Turning now to FIGS.
- a predetermined set of threshold borders 420 are established to disambiguate between a tap-type operation and a drag operation. That is, if the gesture, such as initial drag 405, extends beyond any of the set of threshold borders 420, the gesture is considered a drag operation. In another embodiment, if the gesture is applied and held at the touchscreen interface for longer than a predefined window of time, the gesture is considered a drag operation.
- the initial drag 405 is moving into an upper quadrant; thus the gesture is considered a vertical drag operation in the upward direction. Accordingly, if the application supports scrolling functionality in the vertical direction, the content may move in connection with the initial drag 405. In the case where the correction component 225 of FIG. 2 is active, any drift or wiggle in the initial drag 405 is dampened if it does not cross either of the threshold boundary 410 and 415.
- a secondary drag 505 crosses the threshold boundary 515. In one embodiment, crossing the threshold boundary 515 pauses the panning functionality. In another embodiment, the secondary drag 505 crossing the threshold boundary 515 may invoke a secondary action, or deactivate the correction component 225 of FIG. 2 such that the dampening functionality is ceased. Accordingly, the content follows the drag operation instead of moving along a direction of the principal axis.
