SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TEXT EDITOR TEXT ALIGNMENT CONTROL
First Claim
1. A method for an electronic device having an input device and a display, the method comprising:
- displaying a block of text within a text editing application;
displaying, in proximity of the block of text, an alignment control interface after a precondition is met;
detecting a dragging motion associated with the alignment control interface;
modifying an alignment of the block of text based, at least in part, on the detected dragging motion;
detecting an end of the dragging motion; and
displaying, in a predetermined position associated with the alignment of the block of text, the alignment control interface.

Abstract
A method for an electronic device having an input device and a display, including, displaying a block of text within a text editing application, displaying, in proximity of the block of text, an alignment control interface after a precondition is met, detecting a dragging motion associated with the alignment control interface, modifying an alignment of the block of text based, at least in part, on the detected dragging motion, detecting an end of the dragging motion, and, displaying, in a predetermined position associated with the alignment of the block of text, the alignment control interface. An electronic device including a display, an input device, a memory, and a processor, the processor being configured to execute the method.
