Control of Representation Interaction within an Application Launcher |
| 摘要 |
Techniques involving control of interaction with an application launcher are described. In one or more implementations, interaction with a plurality of representations of applications or content in an application launcher is controlled by a computing device. The plurality of representations are selectable to navigate to a user interface corresponding with a respective said application or content. The controlling includes detection of which of a plurality of types of interaction are used by a user in relation to the application launcher. Responsive to the detection that a gesture type of interaction is used, a manage mode is entered in which customization or commands of the representations is initiated using gestures that are not usable to initiate the customization or commands outside the manage mode. Responsive to detection that a cursor or keyboard type of interaction is used, the customization or the commands of the representations is enabled using a cursor control device or keyboard, respectively, without entering the manage mode. |

1. A method comprising:
controlling interaction with a plurality of representations of applications or content in an application launcher by a computing device, the plurality of representations selectable to navigate to a user interface corresponding with a respective said application or content, the controlling including:
detecting which of a plurality of types of interaction are used by a user in relation to the application launcher;responsive to the detecting that a gesture said type of interaction is used, entering a manage mode in which customization of the representations is initiated using gestures that are not usable to initiate the customization or commands outside the manage mode; andresponsive to the detecting that a cursor or keyboard said type of interaction is used, enabling the customization or commands of the representations using a cursor control device or keyboard, respectively, without entering the manage mode. |
