Portable multifunction device, method, and graphical user interface for adjusting an insertion point marker
In accordance with some embodiments, a computer-implemented method is performed at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display. The method includes: displaying graphics and an insertion marker at a first location in the graphics on the touch screen display; detecting a finger contact with the touch screen display; and in response to the detected finger contact, expanding the insertion marker from a first size to a second size on the touch screen display and expanding a portion of the graphics on the touch screen display from an original size to an expanded size. The method further includes detecting movement of the finger contact on the touch screen display and moving the expanded insertion marker in accordance with the detected movement of the finger contact from the first location to a second location in the graphics.
1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by a portable electronic device with one or more processors and a touch screen display, cause the device to:
display graphics and an insertion marker at a first location in the graphics on the touch screen display, wherein the insertion marker has a first size and the graphics have a second size;
detect a single-finger gesture on the touch screen display;
in response to the detected single-finger gesture on the touch screen display:
display a magnifying screen that includes:
the insertion marker that is expanded from the first size to a size larger than the first size;
a portion of the graphics adjacent the first location that is expanded from the second size to a size larger than the second size;
detect movement of a single finger contact on the touch screen display;
in response to the detected movement of the single finger on the touch screen display, change the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen in accordance with the detected movement of the single finger contact; and
cease to display the magnifying screen, if the single finger contact with the touch screen display is broken.
2. The medium of claim 1 , wherein:
the single finger gesture includes a sustained single-finger contact with the touch screen display, and
the detected movement of the singer finger contact is continuous movement of the sustained single-finger contact, without breaking the contact with the touch screen display.
3. The medium of claim 1 , wherein the magnifying screen has a predefined shape.
4. The medium of claim 1 , wherein the graphics on the touch screen display comprise a text entry area that includes at least one character entered using a soft keyboard displayed in a second area separate from the text entry area on the touch screen display.
5. The medium of claim 1 , wherein the location of the single finger contact is anywhere within a text entry area.
6. The medium of claim 1 , wherein the detected movement of the single finger contact has a horizontal component on the touch screen display and a vertical component on the touch screen display, and changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen includes changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen only in accordance with the horizontal component of motion of the single finger contact when the single finger contact moves outside a text entry area.
7. The medium of claim 1 , wherein the insertion marker is a cursor, insertion bar, insertion point, or pointer.
8. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display,
displaying graphics and an insertion marker at a first location in the graphics on the touch screen display, wherein the insertion marker has a first size and the graphics have a second size;
detecting a single-finger gesture on the touch screen display;
in response to the detected single-finger gesture on the touch screen display:
displaying a magnifying screen that includes:
the insertion marker that is expanded from the first size to a size larger than the first size;
a portion of the graphics adjacent the first location that is expanded from the second size to a size larger than the second size;
detecting movement of a single finger contact on the touch screen display;
in response to the detected movement of the single finger on the touch screen display, changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen in accordance with the detected movement of the single finger contact; and
ceasing to display the magnifying screen, if the single finger contact with the touch screen display is broken.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein:
the single finger gesture includes a sustained single-finger contact with the touch screen display, and
the detected movement of the singer finger contact is continuous movement of the sustained single-finger contact, without breaking the contact with the touch screen display.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the magnifying screen has a predefined shape.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the graphics on the touch screen display comprise a text entry area that includes at least one character entered using a soft keyboard displayed in a second area separate from the text entry area on the touch screen display.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the location of the single finger contact is anywhere within a text entry area.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the detected movement of the single finger contact has a horizontal component on the touch screen display and a vertical component on the touch screen display, and changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen includes changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen only in accordance with the horizontal component of motion of the single finger contact when the single finger contact moves outside a text entry area.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the insertion marker is a cursor, insertion bar, insertion point, or pointer.
15. A portable electronic device, comprising:
one or more processors;
memory; and
one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
displaying graphics and an insertion marker at a first location in the graphics on the touch screen display, wherein the insertion marker has a first size and the graphics have a second size;
detecting a single-finger gesture on the touch screen display;
in response to the detected single-finger gesture on the touch screen display:
displaying a magnifying screen that includes:
the insertion marker that is expanded from the first size to a size larger than the first size;
a portion of the graphics adjacent the first location that is expanded from the second size to a size larger than the second size;
detecting movement of a single finger contact on the touch screen display;
in response to the detected movement of the single finger on the touch screen display, changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen in accordance with the detected movement of the single finger contact; and
ceasing to display the magnifying screen, if the single finger contact with the touch screen display is broken.
16. The device of claim 15 , wherein:
the single finger gesture includes a sustained single-finger contact with the touch screen display, and
the detected movement of the singer finger contact is continuous movement of the sustained single-finger contact, without breaking the contact with the touch screen display.
17. The device of claim 15 , wherein the magnifying screen has a predefined shape.
18. The device of claim 15 , wherein the graphics on the touch screen display comprise a text entry area that includes at least one character entered using a soft keyboard displayed in a second area separate from the text entry area on the touch screen display.
19. The device of claim 15 , wherein the location of the single finger contact is anywhere within a text entry area.
20. The device of claim 15 , wherein the detected movement of the single finger contact has a horizontal component on the touch screen display and a vertical component on the touch screen display, and changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen includes changing the portion of the graphics that is expanded and displayed in the magnifying screen only in accordance with the horizontal component of motion of the single finger contact when the single finger contact moves outside a text entry area.
