发明名称 Apparatus and method for supporting the implicit structure of freeform lists, outlines, text, tables, and diagrams in a gesture-based input system and editing system.
摘要 A system is provided which features a data input scheme wherein the nature of the entered data is irrelevant until the requirement is made to perform a function with respect to that data. It is only when it becomes necessary to perform a function with respect to the data that the determination of the nature of the data become important. The desired function, which may include editing, rearranging, moving, etc., then results in a determination of the nature of the data in order to enable implementation of that specific function. The nature of the data can be determined to be in the form of a list, table, or diagram. To this end, a screen oriented display processing system is provided for the entry of informational data including a display means (12), a data entry means (14,42) for entering informational data on said display means, a gesture entering means for entering handwritten gestural data on said display, said gestural data representing a gesture associated with at least a portion of said informational data on said display, an assignment means (18,20,22) responsive to the entry of said gesture for assigning a function representative of said gesture to said portion of said informational data, and an implementing means (22,24,26,28,30) responsive to said assignment means for implementing said function on said portion of said informational data. <IMAGE>
