Abstract

See full text

Components and characters are separated in a user interface for stroke based input of Chinese characters. A user enters a stroke sequence, and matching components and characters are separately displayed in separate selection lists. When the user selects a component, the character selection list is updated to only display characters that contain that component. This input methodology can be implemented on mobile phones, as well as other computing devices such as personal digital assistants. More characters are visible in the character selection list, which aids all users. Of further benefit to those who do use components, more components are displayed as components and characters do not need to share selection list space. Furthermore, separating components and characters reduces confusion between characters and components that look similar.
