POSITIONING A SLIDER ICON ON A PORTABLE MULTIFUNCTION DEVICE

摘要

In accordance with some embodiments, a computer-implemented method is performed at a portable multifunction device (100) with a touch screen display (112). The method includes: detecting (602) a finger contact (4706) with a predefined area (4702) on the touch screen display (112), wherein the predefined area (4702) includes an icon (4704) that is configured to slide in a first direction in the predefined area (4702) on the touch screen display; detecting (604) movement (4710, 4712, 4714) of the' finger contact (4706) on the touch screen display (112) from the predefined area (4702) to a location (4708) outside the predefined area (4702), wherein the movement (4710, 4712, 4714) of the finger contact (4706) on the touch screen display (112) has a component (4716) parallel to the first direction and a component perpendicular to the first direction; sliding (606) the icon in the predefined area (4702) in accordance with the component (4716) of the movement (4710, 4712, 4714) of the finger contact (4706) that is parallel to the first direction.
