Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a method for processing information and an electronic device. The method comprises: displaying an object on a touch display unit of an electronic device; determining a central axis of the displayed object; acquiring movement information of the displayed object in the case that user'"'"'s operation associated with the displayed object on the touch display unit is detected; and, adjusting the central axis of the displayed object during a moving process of the displayed object corresponding to the movement information, the central axis of the displayed object is parallel to moving trajectory corresponding to the movement information in the case that the displayed object stops moving.

Claims

1. A method for processing information, comprising:

displaying an object on a touch display unit of an electronic device;

determining a central axis of the displayed object;

acquiring movement information of the displayed object in the case that user'"'"'s operation associated with the displayed object on the touch display unit is detected; and

adjusting the central axis of the displayed object during a moving process of the displayed object corresponding to the movement information, the central axis of the displayed object is parallel to moving trajectory corresponding to the movement information in the case that the displayed object stops moving.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein said determining a central axis of the displayed object is performed based on display content and display size of the displayed object.

3. The method according to claim 2, wherein said determining a central axis of the displayed object is performed further based on a feature of the display content of the displayed object.

4. The method according to claim 3, wherein the feature comprises a standing orientation of the display content.

5. The method according to claim 1, wherein said acquiring movement information of the displayed object comprises:

acquiring speed information and angle information associated with user'"'"'s operation on the displayed object;

acquiring the moving trajectory of the displayed object based on the angle information; and

acquiring a moving time period of the displayed object based on the moving trajectory and the speed information.

6. The method according to claim 5, wherein said adjusting the central axis of the displayed object further comprises:

controlling, based on the moving trajectory and the moving time period, the displayed object to symmetrically rotate with respect to the central axis of the displayed object during the moving process of the displayed object corresponding to the movement information, such that the central axis of the displayed object is parallel to the moving trajectory corresponding to the movement information in the case that the displayed object stops moving.

7. The method according to claim 6, wherein said controlling the displayed object to symmetrically rotate with respect to the central axis of the displayed object comprises:

acquiring a force exerted on the displayed object in the case that user'"'"'s operation associated with the displayed object on the touch display unit is detected; and

controlling the displayed object to symmetrically rotate with respect to the central axis of the displayed object and rotate in the direction of the exerted force.

8. An electronic device, the electronic device having a touch display unit, the electronic device comprising:

a determining unit, configured to determine a central axis of a displayed object which is displayed on the touch display unit;

a first acquiring unit, configured to acquire movement information of the displayed object in the case that user'"'"'s operation associated with the displayed object on the touch display unit is detected; and

an adjusting unit, configured to adjust the central axis of the displayed object during a moving process of the displayed object corresponding to the movement information, such that the central axis of the displayed object is parallel to the moving trajectory corresponding to the movement information in the case that the displayed object stops moving.

9. The electronic device according to claim 8, wherein the determining unit is further configured to:

determine the central axis of the displayed object based on display content and display size of the displayed object.

10. The electronic device according to claim 9, wherein the displayed object is a picture and the determining unit is further configured to determine the central axis of the displayed object further based on a feature of the display content of the displayed object.

11. The electronic device according to claim 10, wherein the feature comprises a standing orientation of the display content.

12. The electronic device according to claim 8, wherein the first acquiring unit is further configured to:

acquire speed information and angle information associated with user'"'"'s operation on the displayed object;

acquire the moving trajectory of the displayed object based on the angle information; and

acquire a moving time period of the displayed object based on the moving trajectory and the speed information.

13. The electronic device according to claim 12, wherein the adjusting unit is further configured to:

control, based on the moving trajectory and the moving time period, the displayed object to symmetrically rotate with respect to the central axis of the displayed object during the moving process of the displayed object corresponding to the movement information, such that the central axis of the displayed object is parallel to the moving trajectory corresponding to the movement information in the case that the displayed object stops moving.

14. The electronic device according to claim 12, wherein the adjusting unit comprises:

a second acquiring unit, configured to acquire a force exerted on the displayed object in the case that user'"'"'s operation associated with the displayed object is detected; and

a controlling unit, configured to control the displayed object to symmetrically rotate with respect to the central axis of the displayed object and rotate in the direction of the exerted force.
