Method for document navigation using a single-page gesture and a gesture for setting and maintaining a number of pages turned by subsequent gestures
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a screen operable to display pages and to receive input;
a hardware processor programmed to;
display a document having plural pages on the screen;
receive, from the screen, signals corresponding to the input;
detect whether the signals correspond to a flick gesture or a switching gesture on the screen, wherein the flick gesture and the switching gesture are different from each other, the switching gesture comprises a longer motion across the screen than the flick gesture, and the flick gesture and the switching gesture are independent of content displayed on the screen;
turn at least one page of the document in response to detecting a flick gesture;
change, in response to detecting the switching gesture and according to a distance of the motion of the switching gesture, a quantity of pages to be turned by each subsequently detected flick gesture; and
maintain the changed quantity of pages through multiple detected flick gestures when at least a part of the switching gesture is detected as being maintained during the subsequently detected flick gesture.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a screen, a receiving unit that receives an operation performed on the screen, a display that displays a document having multiple pages on the screen on a page-by-page basis, a processing mode changing unit that, upon detecting a predetermined first operation on the document displayed on the screen, changes from a first processing mode that moves one page at a time to a second processing mode that moves multiple pages, and a moving unit that, upon detecting a predetermined second operation in the second processing mode, moves multiple pages within the document. As the predetermined first operation, the processing mode changing unit detects continued detection of a first position where a drag operation has ended, or detects, while the first position is detected, an operation performed at a second position different from the first position.

7. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a hardware processor of a computer to execute a process comprising:
-
displaying a document having plural pages on a screen operable to display pages and to receive input; receiving, from the screen, signals corresponding to input from the user; detecting whether the signals correspond to a flick gesture or a switching gesture performed by the user on the screen, wherein the flick gesture and the switching gesture are different from each other, the switching gesture comprises a longer motion across the screen by the user than the flick gesture, and the flick gesture and the switching gesture are independent of content displayed on the screen; turning at least one page of the document in response to detecting a flick gesture; changing, in response to detecting the switching gesture and according to a distance of the motion of the switching gesture, a quantity of pages to be turned by each subsequently detected flick gesture; and maintain the changed quantity of pages through multiple detected flick gestures when at least a part of the switching gesture is detected as being maintained during the subsequently detected flick gesture.

8. A method comprising the steps, performed by a hardware processor, of:
-
displaying a document having plural pages on a screen operable to display pages and to receive input from a user; receiving, from the screen, signals corresponding to input from the user; detecting whether the signals correspond to a flick gesture or a switching gesture performed by the user on the screen, wherein the flick gesture and the switching gesture are different from each other, the switching gesture comprises a longer motion across the screen by the user than the flick gesture, and the flick gesture and the switching gesture are independent of content displayed on the screen; turning at least one page of the document in response to detecting a flick gesture; changing, in response to detecting the switching gesture and according to a distance of the motion of the switching gesture, a quantity of pages to be turned by each subsequently detected flick gesture; and maintaining the changed quantity of pages through multiple detected flick gestures when at least a part of the switching gesture is detected as being maintained during the subsequently detected flick gesture.

9. An apparatus comprising:
-
a screen operable to display pages and to receive input; a hardware processor programmed to; display a document having plural pages on the screen; receive, from the screen, signals corresponding to the input; detect whether the signals correspond to a flick gesture or a switching gesture on the screen, wherein the flick gesture and the switching gesture are different from each other, the switching gesture comprises a longer motion across the screen than the flick gesture, and the flick gesture and the switching gesture are independent of content displayed on the screen; turn at least one page of the document in response to detecting a flick gesture; determine whether to change a quantity of pages to be turned by each subsequently detected flick gesture in response to detecting the switching gesture and according to a distance of the motion of the switching gesture; and maintain the changed quantity of pages through multiple detected flick gestures when at least a part of the switching gesture is detected as being maintained during the subsequently detected flick gesture.
