Method and system for providing background contents of virtual key input device

摘要

A method for providing a background image to a virtual key input device for display on an information communication terminal thereof supporting a touch user interface (TUI). The method includes receiving, via the information communication terminal, a selection of settings by a user for a virtual key input unit, generating the virtual key input unit using the selected settings, the virtual key input unit being transparent, receiving, via the information communication terminal, a selection of background contents by the user for the virtual key input unit, and generating a background skin based on the selected background contents, and combining the transparent virtual key input unit and the background skin.

1. A method for providing contents to a user by using background contents of a virtual key input device on a display screen of an information communication terminal including a hardware processor, the method comprised of ordered steps executed by the processor via user input, configured to:
access a menu of a user interface of the information communication terminal;
select a virtual key input unit from a list of virtual key input units within the user interface of the information communication terminal, wherein a language for the virtual key input unit is selected from a plurality of languages, a key input method of a character layout is selected from a plurality of key input methods for the virtual key input unit, and a dimensional layout shape and arrangement structure of the virtual key input unit is selected from a plurality of dimensional layout shape and arrangement structures, such that each of the virtual key input units corresponding to a different type of a keypad;generate a transparent skin key input unit having boundary lines for dividing character and function keys in the transparent skin key input unit based on the selected virtual key input unit;respond to the user's selection of the background contents for the selected virtual key input unit on the display screen, by selecting within the user interface background contents for the selected virtual key input unit from a background contents database which stores background contents for the virtual key input units,selecting the background contents database within the user interface which includes selection of one of a contents database of background contents for personal use and a contents database of background contents for business use, andselecting within the user interface a background skin of the selected virtual key input unit based on the selected background contents according to the dimensional layout shape and arrangement structure of the selected virtual key input unit;combine the generated background skin and the generated transparent skin key input unit; andgenerate a combined skin of the background skin and the transparent skin key input unit and displaying by the processor, the combined skin on the display screen of the information communication terminal.
