Text-entry for a computing device
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- displaying a user interface comprising a character line, the character line comprising a plurality of characters in a substantially linear arrangement;
receiving a first input via a touch-sensitive input device, wherein the first input comprises a detected movement on a first portion of the touch-sensitive input device;
in response to receiving the first input, displaying an indication of a selected character in the character line;
receiving a second input via the touch-sensitive input device, wherein the second input comprises a detected movement from the first portion to a second portion of the touch-sensitive input device and back to the first portion; and
in response to receiving the second input, displaying the selected character in a text-entry area of the user interface that is separate from the character line.

Abstract
Example method and systems for text-entry are disclosed. A method may involve displaying a user interface comprising a character line, the character line comprising a plurality of characters in a substantially linear arrangement. The method may then involve receiving a first input via a touch-sensitive input device, wherein the first input comprises a detected movement on a first portion of the touch-sensitive input device. Further, the method may involve, in response to receiving the first input, displaying an indication of a selected character. The method may then involve receiving a second input via the touch-sensitive input device, wherein the second input comprises a detected movement from the first portion to a second portion of the touch-sensitive input device and back to the first portion. The method may then involve displaying the selected character in a text-entry area of the user interface that is separate from the character line.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the instructions comprising:
-
instructions for displaying a user interface comprising a character line, the character line comprising a plurality of characters in a substantially linear arrangement; instructions for receiving a first input via a touch-sensitive input device, wherein the first input comprises a detected movement on a first portion of the touch-sensitive input device; instructions for, in response to receiving the first input, displaying an indication of a selected character in the character line; instructions for receiving a second input via the touch-sensitive input device, wherein the second input comprises a detected movement from the first portion to a second portion of the touch-sensitive input device and back to the first portion; and instructions for, in response to receiving the second input, displaying the selected character in a text-entry area of the user interface that is separate from the character line. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)

16. A wearable computing system comprising:
-
a head-mounted display, wherein the head-mounted display is configured to provide a view of a real-world environment of the wearable computing system, wherein providing the view of the real-world environment comprises displaying computer-generated information and allowing visual perception of the real-world environment; a display system, wherein the display system is configured to display a user interface comprising a character line, the character line comprising a plurality of characters in a substantially linear arrangement; a touch-sensitive input device, wherein the touch-sensitive input device is configured to receive a first input via the touch-sensitive input device, wherein the first input comprises a detected movement on a first portion of the touch-sensitive input device; wherein the display system is further configured to, in response to receiving the first input, display an indication of a selected character in the character line; wherein the touch-sensitive input device is further configured to receive a second input via the touch-sensitive input device, wherein the second input comprises a detected movement from the first portion to a second portion of the touch-sensitive input device and back to the first portion; and wherein the display system is further configured to, in response to receiving the second input, display the selected character in a text-entry area of the user interface that is separate from the character line. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
