CONCURRENTLY DISPLAYING MULTIPLE CHARACTERS FOR INPUT FIELD POSITIONS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method implemented in a computing device, the method comprising:
- receiving a first user input via a keyboard;
identifying multiple keys of the keyboard that are touched as part of the first user input;
determining multiple characters based on the multiple keys that are touched as part of the first user input; and
concurrently displaying, in a character list corresponding to a first position of an input field of a display, the multiple characters.

Abstract
For each of multiple user inputs, multiple keys of a keyboard that are touched as part of the user input are identified. Additionally, for each of the multiple user inputs, multiple characters that are to be displayed concurrently are determined based on the multiple keys that are touched as part of the user input. Both a character input field and the multiple characters determined for each of the multiple user inputs are displayed. One or more suggested inputs can also be displayed, and a user-selected one of the suggested inputs identified as an input to the character input field.

11. A device comprising:
-
a user input module to identify, for each of multiple user inputs, multiple keys of a keyboard that are touched as part of the user input; a character determination module to determine, for each of the multiple user inputs, multiple characters that are to be displayed concurrently based on the multiple keys that are touched as part of the user input; and a user interface display module to display both a character input field and the multiple characters determined for each of the multiple user inputs. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A computer storage media having stored thereon multiple instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the one or more processors to:
-
display a character input field; determine, for each of multiple user inputs, multiple characters that are to be displayed concurrently based on multiple keys that are touched as part of the user input; display, in a first portion partially overlapping the character input field, the multiple characters; identify, based on the multiple characters of the multiple user inputs, one or more suggested inputs; display, adjacent the character input field, the one or more suggested inputs; receive a user selection of one of the one or more suggested inputs; and identify the selected one suggested input as an input to the character input field.
