Abstract

An operating method and system and a storage medium using the same are provided. The operating method is applied to a handheld electronic device with at least two judging modes. First, the handheld electronic device receives a touch input, and determines a judging mode out of the judging modes according to a parameter related to the touch input. Then, the touch input is compared with a reference signal to obtain a deviation value. When the deviation value is smaller than the deviation threshold corresponding to the determined judging mode, an operation corresponding to the touch input is executed.

Claims

1. An operating method, suitable for a handheld electronic device having at least two judging modes, comprising:

receiving a touch input;

determining a judging mode out of the judging modes according to a parameter related to the touch input;

calculating a deviation value between the touch input and a reference signal;

judging whether the deviation value is smaller than a deviation threshold corresponding to the determined judging mode; and

when the deviation value is smaller than the deviation threshold, executing an operation corresponding to the touch input.

2. The operating method of claim 1, further comprising:

when the deviation value is greater than the deviation threshold, ignoring the touch input.

3. The operating method of claim 1, further comprising:

when the deviation value is greater than the deviation threshold, executing another operation corresponding to the touch input.

4. The operating method of claim 1, wherein the deviation threshold is ignored in the determined judging mode.

5. The operating method of claim 1, wherein the parameter comprises a lasting time, a path, a displacement, a speed, or an operating mode related to the touch input.

6. The operating method of claim 1, wherein the reference signal comprises a straight line or a specific path.

7. The operating method of claim 1, wherein the parameter is a lasting time of the touch input, the reference signal is a vertical line, and the deviation value is a horizontal distance between the touch input and the vertical line.

8. The operating method of claim 1, wherein the parameter is a lasting time of the touch input, the reference signal is a vertical line, and the deviation value is an angle between the tangent of the touch input and the vertical line.

9. The operating method of claim 1, wherein the touch input is used for browsing a list, a web-page, or a document.

19. A storage medium used for storing a computer program, said computer program comprising a plurality of codes used for being loaded into a handheld electronic device and enabling the handheld electronic device to execute the operating method of claim 1.

10. An operating system, suitable for a handheld electronic device having at least two judging modes, comprising:

a receiving module, for receiving a touch input;

an executing module, for determining a judging mode out of the judging modes according to a parameter related to the touch input;

a calculating module, for calculating a deviation value between the touch input and a reference signal; and

a judging module, for judging whether the deviation value is smaller than a deviation threshold corresponding to the determined judging mode;

wherein when the judging module judges the deviation value is smaller than the deviation threshold, the executing module executes an operation corresponding to the touch input.

11. The operating system of claim 10, wherein when the judging module judges the deviation value is larger than the deviation threshold, the executing module ignores the touch input.

12. The operating system of claim 10, wherein when the judging module judges the deviation value is larger than the deviation threshold, the executing module executes another operation corresponding to the touch input.

13. The operating system of claim 10, wherein the executing module ignores the deviation threshold in the determined judging mode.

14. The operating system of claim 10, wherein the parameter comprises a lasting time, a path, a displacement, a speed, or an operating mode related to the touch input.

15. The operating system of claim 10, wherein the reference signal comprises a straight line or a specific path.

16. The operating system of claim 10, wherein the reference signal is a vertical line, the parameter is a lasting time of the touch input, and the deviation value is a horizontal distance between the touch input and the vertical line.

17. The operating system of claim 10, wherein the reference signal is a vertical line, the parameter is a lasting time of the touch input, and the deviation value is an angle between the tangent of the touch input and the vertical line.

18. The operating system of claim 10, wherein the touch input is used for browsing a list, a web-page, or a document.
