Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Transitioning Between Touch Input to Display Output Relationships
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by an electronic device with a display, a touch-sensitive surface and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive surface, cause the device to:
- detect a contact on the touch-sensitive surface;
determine a location of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface;
determine an intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface; and
display a response in accordance with the detected contact, the response being based at least in part on an input-output mapping of intensity to response at the location of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the input-output mapping including, for a respective location on the touch-sensitive surface;
a first input-output relationship between intensity and response over a first range of intensity values;
a second input-output relationship between intensity and response over a second range of intensity values, the second range of intensity values being different from the first range of intensity values; and
a transitional intensity value where the first range of intensity values meets or overlaps the second range of intensity values, wherein, at the transitional intensity value;
the first input-output relationship has a first rate of change of response with change in intensity;
the second input-output relationship has a second rate of change of response with change in intensity; and
the first rate of change is substantially the same as the second rate of change.

Abstract
An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts, detects a contact, determines a location and intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, and displays a response, the response being based at least in part on an input-output mapping of intensity to response at the contact location. The input-output mapping including a first input-output relationship between intensity and response over a first range of intensity values, a second input-output relationship between intensity and response over a second range of intensity values, and a transitional intensity value where the first range of intensity values meets or overlaps the second range of intensity values. At the transitional intensity value, the first input-output relationship has a first rate of change, the second input-output relationship has a second rate of change, and the first rate is substantially the same as the second rate.
