Context sensitive actions in response to touch input

摘要

Techniques for performing context-sensitive actions in response to touch input are provided. A user interface of an application can be displayed. Touch input can be received in a region of the displayed user interface, and a context can be determined. A first action may be performed if the context is a first context and a second action may instead be performed if the context is a second context different from the first context. In some embodiments, an action may be performed if the context is a first context and the touch input is a first touch input, and may also be performed if the context is a second context and the touch input is a second touch input.

1. A method comprising:
at an electronic device with a touchscreen display:
displaying, by the touchscreen display, a user interface of a map application that has a standard map mode and a navigation mode;receiving, by the touchscreen display, a first touch input in a map shown in the displayed user interface; and,in response to receiving the first touch input, modifying the user interface in accordance with the first touch input, wherein:in accordance with a determination that the device was operating in the standard map mode of the map application when the first touch input was received, modifying the user interface in accordance with the first touch input includes performing, by the electronic device, a first user interface action, wherein in the standard map mode, the user interface of the map application displays a representation of a map; andin accordance with a determination that the device was operating in the navigation mode of the map application when the first touch input was received, modifying the user interface in accordance with the first touch input includes performing, by the electronic device, a second user interface action that is different from the first user interface action, wherein in the navigation mode, the user interface of the map application displays routing information on the representation of the map.
