Long press interface interactions

摘要

A computer-implemented user interface method includes displaying one or more display elements in a graphical user interface, including elements that correspond to pop up controls, receiving a selection of one of the one or more display elements, determining whether the selected element corresponds to a pop up control, and displaying the selected element in a highlighted format upon receiving the selection if the element corresponds to a pop up control, and displaying a pop up control after displaying the element in a highlighted format if the selection persists for a long press period.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
displaying, on an electronic display of a computing device, a plurality of graphical elements; receiving, based on user input, a first selection of a first graphical element from among the plurality of graphical elements, the first graphical element being associated with one or more long-press operations that are configured to be activated responsive to selections of the first graphical element that persist for a first pre-determined period of time; in response to receiving the first selection of the first graphical element, changing the display of the first graphical element from having a first visual appearance to having a second visual appearance that is different than the first visual appearance, wherein the second visual appearance indicates that the first graphical element is associated with the one or more long press operations, wherein the first graphical element is changed to have the second visual appearance for a second period of time before the one or more long-press operations are activate; identifying that the first selection of the first graphical element has persisted for at least the first pre-determined period of time; in response to identifying that the first selection of the first graphical element has persisted for at least the first pre-determined period of time, activating the one or more long-press operations; receiving, based on user input, a first selection of a second graphical element, the second graphical element not being associated with long-press operations, the first selection of the second graphical element persisting for at least the first pre-determined period of time; and in response to receiving the first selection of the second graphical element, performing a short-press operation with the computing device without changing the display of the second graphical element in a manner that would indicate that the second graphical element is associated with long-press operations.
