Abstract

A data displaying method and apparatus is disclosed. The method includes: obtaining a touch action coordinate triggered in a displaying page by a user; intercepting a first region from the displaying page, wherein the center of the first region is the touch action coordinate and the size of the first region is a predefined value that is determined by the size of a magnifier to be drawn; magnifying the first region, and taking the magnified first region as a brush pattern, wherein the magnification of the first region is determined by the magnification of the magnifier; and calculating a second region for drawing the magnifier in the displaying page, and drawing and displaying the magnifier in the second region by using the brush pattern. By the method and apparatus, a magnifier function can be realized on a Symbian platform, and the user can accurately select wanted characters.

Claims

1. A data displaying method, comprising:

obtaining a touch action coordinate triggered in a displaying page by a user;

intercepting a first region from the displaying page, wherein the center of the first region is the touch action coordinate and the size of the first region is a predefined value that is determined by the size of a magnifier to be drawn;

magnifying the first region, and taking the magnified first region as a brush pattern, wherein the magnification of the first region is determined by the magnification of the magnifier; and

calculating a second region for drawing the magnifier in the displaying page, and drawing and displaying the magnifier in the second region by using the brush pattern.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the touch action coordinate is a coordinate of touch down action of a user on a screen, or a coordinate of touch move action of the user on the screen.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the calculating the second region for drawing the magnifier in the displaying page comprises:

determining a location around the touch action coordinate, wherein a distance between the location and the touch action coordinate is a predefined value; and

taking a region in the displaying page as the second region, wherein the center of the region is the determined location and the size of the region is the same as the size of the magnifier.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the taking the magnified first region as the brush pattern comprises:

intercepting a third region from the magnified first region, wherein the center of the third region is the touch action coordinate and the size of the third region is the same as the size of the first region before magnification; and

taking the third region as the brush pattern.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the drawing the magnifier by using the brush pattern in the second region comprises:

sending parameters including the coordinate of the center of the second region and the size of the second region to a drawing function for drawing the magnifier on a Symbian platform;

filling, by the drawing function, the second region by using the parameters and the brush pattern; and

drawing a rim of the magnifier at the edge of the second region after the filling.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the method applied to a mobile terminal device;

and

the touch action coordinate triggered in the displaying page by the user is obtained after a freely copying function configured in the browser of the mobile terminal device is started.

7. The method of claim 1, after drawing the magnifier, further comprising:

cancelling the drawn magnifier when the user performs a touch up action from the screen for the drawn magnifier.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the first region is a square region and the second region is a round region;

and

the side of the square region is equal to the diameter of the round region.

9. A data displaying apparatus, comprising:

one or more processors;

memory; and

one or more units stored in the memory and to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more units including;

an obtaining unit, configured to obtain a touch action coordinate triggered in a displaying page by a user;

an intercepting unit, configured to intercept a first region from the displaying page, wherein the center of the first region is the touch action coordinate and the size of the first region is a predefined value that is determined by the size of a magnifier to be drawn;

a magnifying unit, configured to magnify the first region, and take the magnified first region as a brush pattern, wherein the magnification of the first region is determined by the magnification of the magnifier;

a calculating unit, configured to calculate a second region for drawing the magnifier in the displaying page; and

a drawing unit, configured to draw and display the magnifier by using the brush pattern in the second region.

10. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the calculating unit is configured to determine a location around the touch action coordinate, wherein a distance between the location and the touch action coordinate is a predefined value, and take a region in the displaying page as the second region, wherein the center of the region is the determined location and the size of the region is the same as the size of the magnifier.

11. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the magnifying unit is configured to intercept a third region from the magnified first region, wherein the center of the third region is the touch action coordinate and the size of the third region is the same as the size of the first region before magnification, and take the third region as the brush pattern.

12. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the drawing unit comprises:

a sending sub-unit, configured to send parameters including the coordinate of the center of the second region and the size of the second region to a drawing function for drawing the magnifier on a Symbian platform, wherein the drawing function fills the second region by using the parameters and the brush pattern; and

a drawing sub-unit, configured to draw a rim of the magnifier at the edge of the second region after the filling.

13. The apparatus of claim 9, further comprising:

a processing unit, configured to cancel the drawn magnifier when the user performs a touch up action from a screen for the drawn magnifier.

14. A mobile terminal device for data displaying, comprising a data displaying apparatus, wherein the data displaying apparatus comprises:

one or more processors;

memory; and

one or more units stored in the memory and to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more units including;

an obtaining unit, configured to obtain a touch action coordinate triggered in a displaying page by a user;

an intercepting unit, configured to intercept a first region from the displaying page, wherein the center of the first region is the touch action coordinate and the size of the first region is a predefined value that is determined by the size of a magnifier to be drawn;

a magnifying unit, configured to magnify the first region, and take the magnified first region as a brush pattern, wherein the magnification of the first region is determined by the magnification of the magnifier;

a calculating unit, configured to calculate a second region for drawing the magnifier in the displaying page; and

a drawing unit, configured to draw and display the magnifier by using the brush pattern in the second region.
