METHOD FOR GENERATING MULTIPLE WINDOWS FRAMES, ELECTRONIC DEVICE THEREOF, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT USING THE METHOD
First Claim
1. A method for generating multiple windows frames, suitable for an electronic device with a touch panel, wherein a center of the touch panel is a display area, and a non-display area surrounds the display area, the method comprising:
- detecting a touch trajectory generated by continuously touching the touch panel;
determining whether the touch trajectory is started from one side of the non-display area and passed through the display area to be extended to another side of the non-display area; and
splitting the display area according to the touch trajectory to display at least two windows frames if the touch trajectory is started from one side of the non-display area and passed through the display area to be extended to another side of the non-display area.

Abstract
A method for generating multiple windows frames, an electronic device thereof, and a computer program product using the method are provided. In the present method, first, a touch trajectory generated by continuously touching a touch panel of the electronic device is detected, wherein the center of the touch panel is a display area, and a non-display area surrounds the display area. Then, whether the touch trajectory is started from one side of the non-display area and passed through the display area to be extended to another side of the non-display area is determined. If so, the display area is split according to the touch trajectory to display at least two windows frames. As a result, an intuitional and convenient method for generating multiple windows frames in the display area is provided, and the operation of the electronic device is made very convenient.
