Sliding Operation for Touch Screen - A Design Concept of Two-Stage Sliding

Abstract:

This study aims to design a two-stage sliding function. First, plural function instructions are grouped into a functional classification, and a sliding operation is divided into anterior sliding and posterior sliding. Anterior sliding selects the functional classification, which contains the function instructions, while posterior sliding selects the function instruction to be executed. The operation and application of a sliding gesture to the smart phone and tablet PC can be greatly expanded by this design.
