    Abstract: A stroke display method of handwriting input and an electronic device are provided. In the method, a selection of a specific script style comprising multiple common strokes is received. When a touch is detected, an initial touch point is obtained. While the touch is not terminated, a latest touch point is obtained continuously, and a moving direction is determined by the initial touch point and the latest touch point. Once the touch is terminated or the moving direction is changed, whether a trajectory of the touch consists with any of the common strokes is determined. If yes, at least one patch point is determined according to the initial touch point, the latest touch point, and the consisted common stroke. A closed graph is established by using the initial touch point, the latest touch point, and the at least one patch point, and is displayed on a display module.
