摘要:
Methods and systems of multi-word automatic correction (“autocorrect”) are provided. Autocorrect generally can select a corrected word based on a typed word and a dictionary of correctly-spelled words. Multi-word autocorrect can add to this functionality by revisiting the selection of an initial corrected word if a subsequently-typed word indicates that it would be more appropriate to instead select an additional corrected word. In some cases, an autocorrect system can make a multi-word correction based on a multi-word phrase in a dictionary, such as replacing “new york” with “New York” as described above. In other cases, an autocorrect system can make a multi-word correction to correct a mistakenly-typed delimiter character. In other cases, an autocorrect system can use grammar rules to obtain additional context information with each subsequently-typed word and make multi-word corrections on that basis.

A method for configuring a hardware keyboard without user intervention. At least one of language information and location information from one or more hardware and software information sources associated with the electronic device is obtained. The hardware and software information is prioritized based on the reliability of their associated language and location information. A keyboard language and layout is determined for the hardware keyboard based on the language information and location information obtained from the information source having the highest relative priority. The electronic device is configured to interpret key input signals from the hardware keyboard based on the determined keyboard language and keyboard layout.

A method and system for display a user interface object. A user interface object for receiving user input to the application program is determined and the user interface object is displayed on the display. A first set of characteristics of the user interface object is control in accordance with the application program. The first set of characteristics include appearance of the user interface object and user interactions with the application program via the user interface object. A second set of characteristics of the user interface different form the first set of characteristics are controlled in accordance with the control program. The second set of characteristics include the display state of the user interface object.

A system and method for issuing commands to an application based on contextual information. A control application receives an indication that a text manipulation event has occurred in a user interface of a second application. Next, the control application queries the second application to obtain contextual information established by the second application prior to the event, the contextual information providing context to the text manipulation event that occurred in the user interface of the second application. The control application then issues one or more commands to the second application based on the contextual information providing context to the text manipulation event.

A method and system for displaying an on-screen keyboard. An on-screen keyboard and a plurality of input fields are displayed on the touch-sensitive display. Each input field has an associated input interface and the on-screen keyboard is associated with a first input field. A subsequent contact with the touch-sensitive display that corresponds to a second input field is detected. The second input field is associated with a second input interface that is distinct from the on-screen keyboard and the second input interface is compatible with text input form the on-screen keyboard. The second input interface is concurrently displayed with the on-screen keyboard in response to the detected subsequent contact with the second input field.
