Electronic Device, Operation Control Method, and Computer Program Product

摘要

According to one embodiment, an electronic device includes a receiver, a first determining module, a second determining module, a calculator, and a controller. The receiver receives operation information at a regular time interval. The first determining module determines, when an operating module is pressed based on click information, whether or not an amount of movement in the received operation information is equal to or greater than a first threshold value. The second determining module determines, when the amount of movement is equal to or greater than the first threshold value, whether or not a predetermined period of time elapses from an initial press to the operating module. The calculator determines, when the predetermined period of time has elapsed from the initial press to the operating module, that a swipe operation has been performed with the operating module and calculates an amount of movement of a pointer to be a greater value than an amount of movement in a drag operation.

1. An electronic device comprising:
a receiver that receives operation information at a regular time interval, the operation information including an amount of movement by an operation of an operating module in association with click information, the click information indicating that the operating module is pressed; a first determining module that determines, when the operating module is pressed based on the click information, whether or not the amount of movement in the received operation information is equal to or greater than a first threshold value; a second determining module that determines, when the amount of movement is equal to or greater than the first threshold value, whether or not a predetermined period of time elapses from an initial press to the operating module; a calculator that determines, when the predetermined period of time has elapsed from the initial press to the operating module, that a swipe operation has been performed with the operating module and calculates an amount of movement of a pointer to be a greater value than an amount of movement in a drag operation; and a controller that controls movement of the pointer based on the calculated amount of movement of the pointer and the click information.
