  • Publication number: 20190179474
    Abstract: An electronic device that includes a display screen, a touch screen, and a processor is disclosed. The touch screen is configured to provide a user interface area and a trackpad operation area and output touch information in response to a touch behavior. The processor is electronically connected to the display screen and the touch screen and configured to receive touch materials and determine whether the touch behavior relates to a user interface instruction or a trackpad operation instruction according to the touch information. When the processor determines that the touch behavior relates to the user interface instruction, the processor provides corresponding instruction code to an interactive service module according to the touch materials, so as to control an application program displayed on the display screen.

  • Publication number: 20140184537
    Abstract: A touch control device comprises a touchpad, a display unit and a processing unit. The touchpad detects a touch gesture and generates information corresponding to the touch gesture. The processing unit includes a page display module, a gesture processing engine, a gestures determining module and a control module. The gesture processing engine determines whether the information corresponding to the touch gesture includes the information of at least three fingers touch the touchpad. The gestures determining module determines whether the touchpad detects a scrolling gesture made by one of the fingers when the information corresponding to the touch gesture includes the information of at least three fingers touch the touchpad. The control module scrolls the page or image displayed on the display unit according to the scrolling gesture when the touchpad detects the scrolling gesture made by at least one of the fingers.

  • Publication number: 20120297336
    Abstract: A computer system with a touch screen is provided. The computer system includes a touch unit, a hook unit, and a controlling application program. The touch unit generates a position signal according to the touch point. The hook unit is used for judging whether the first position is near a border of a to-be-resized window according to the position signal. If the first position is not near the border, a left button pressing event at the first position and a left button releasing event at the first position are generated. If the first position is near the border, the left button pressing event at the second position, a continuous motion event corresponding to the movement from the second position to a third position and the left button releasing event at the third position are sequentially generated.
