Operating device with character input and delete function
First Claim
1. An operating device, comprising:
- an input device, having a first touchscreen, configured to receive a character input by a user;
a display device, having a second touchscreen different from the first touchscreen or a touch-insensitive screen, configured to display characters, which are input by the user via the input device, in an input field; and
a processor configured to execute a program to delete at least one character displayed in the input field by using a delete element in a deleting process, the processor further configured to;
during the deleting process, in the input field, move the delete element successively over in each case one of the characters displayed in the input field and in so doing in each case to delete the character or to mark the character for a deletion to be carried out at an end of the deleting process,during the deleting process, detect a sliding movement of a finger of the user on at least one first touch-sensitive touch field provided by a first touch-sensitive display area of the first touchscreen, and to control the movement of the delete element based on the sliding movement of the finger of the user on the at least one first touch-sensitive touch field detected by the processor such that a sliding path distance of the sliding movement corresponds to movement of the delete element, andduring the deleting process, optically connect by lines a current touch location of the finger on the first touchscreen to the delete element represented in the input field on the display device, when the processor detects the sliding movement of the finger of the user on the at least one first touch-sensitive touch field.

Abstract
An operating device includes an input device that receives a character input of a user, a display device that displays input characters in an input field, and a delete device that deletes at least one character displayed in the input field in a deleting process. The delete device is configured, during the deleting process, in the input field, to move a delete element successively over in each case one of the displayed characters and in so doing in each case to delete the character or to mark it for a deletion to be carried out at the end of the deleting process. The delete device can also be configured to, during the deleting process, to detect a sliding movement of a user'"'"'s finger on at least one touch-sensitive touch field and to control the movement of the delete element depending on the detected sliding movement.

17. A method for operating an operating device, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by an input device having a first touchscreen, a character input by a user; displaying, by a display device having a second touchscreen different from the first touchscreen or a touch-insensitive screen, characters which are input by the user via the input device, in an input field; and deleting, by a processor executing a program, at least one character displayed in the input field by a deleting process, the deleting including; during the deleting process, moving, by the processor, a delete element successively over in each case one of the characters displayed in the input field and in so doing in each case deleting the character or marking the character for a deletion to be carried out at an end of the deleting process, during the deleting process, detecting, by the processor, a sliding movement of a finger of the user on at least one first touch-sensitive touch field provided by a first touch-sensitive display area of the first touchscreen, and controlling the movement of the delete element based on the sliding movement of the finger of the user on the at least one first touch-sensitive touch field detected by the processor such that a sliding path distance of the sliding movement corresponds to movement of the delete element, and during the deleting process, the processor optically connecting by lines a current touch location of the finger on the first touchscreen to the delete element represented in the input field on the display device, when the processor detects the sliding movement of the finger of the user on the at least one first touch-sensitive touch field. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
