Abstract
A computer implemented method for a touch screen user interface for a computer system. A first touchscreen area is provided for accepting text input strokes. A second touchscreen area is provided for displaying recognized text from the text input strokes. The text input strokes are displayed in the first touchscreen area. The text input strokes are recognized and the resulting recognized text is displayed in the second touchscreen area. A portion of the recognized text is displayed in the first touchscreen area, wherein the portion of the recognized text is shown as the text input strokes are recognized. The portion of the recognized text displayed scrolls as the new text input strokes are recognized. The portion of the recognized text in the first touchscreen area can be displayed in a different format with respect to the recognized text in the second touchscreen area. The text input strokes in a first part of the first touchscreen area are graphically shown as they are being recognized by the computer system. The touchscreen user interface method can be implemented on a PID (personal information device) and can be implemented on a palmtop computer system.
