Method of implementing a soft input panel interface

摘要

An improved user interface for a telephone dialer application in a portable device and a method for implementing a display area for the device are provided. Existing telephone dialer application in a portable device is less user friendly as it obscures an entire display area of a portable device. The present invention allows a user to simultaneously access both the dialer and other applications. Further, the dialer user interface has an input display section for displaying an input received through a user's initiation or transmitted from a separate application.
