Gesture-based Access to a Mix View

摘要

Techniques for gesture-based access to a mixed view associated with an application representation are described. In one or more implementations, a user interface is exposed by an operating system of a computing device. The user interface includes a concurrent display of a plurality of representations of applications that are selectable by a user to launch respective applications. Gesture-based techniques can be used to interact with an application representation to cause one or more visible targets to appear adjacent the representation. The individual targets are individually associated with some type of application functionality, e.g., a quick action or a deep link into content associated with the application. An individual target can then be selected, e.g., touch-selected, by a user to initiate the associated functionality.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
displaying, on a computing device, one or more application representations that are capable of launching an associated application; receiving gestural input associated with one of the application representations; responsive to receiving the gestural input, presenting one or more user-selectable targets in association with the application representation, the user-selectable targets being configured to enable direct access to a respective associated application functionality.
