TextTearing

Abstract: Having insufficient space for making annotations is a problem that afflicts both paper and digital documents. We introduce the TextTearing technique for in situ expansion of inter-line whitespace and pair it with a lightweight interaction for margin expansion as a way to address this problem. The full system leverages the dynamism of digital documents and employs a bimanual design that combines the precision of pen with the fluidity of touch. Our evaluation found that a simpler unimanual variant of TextTearing… Show more

“…The design of some of these digital text reading environments was informed by studies of active reading tasks [29,63]. Some have also suggested leveraging the digital environment to support new tasks, such as TextTearing to create space for annotations [73] or word-scale visualizations to allow cross-referencing within a text [22].…”

“…Yoon et al [19] made use of the model of Vogel et al to reject unintended touches while an active stylus pen is recognized. Whereas for the handwriting with a general stylus pan, the pen nib does not always touch a display.…”

“…According to the past researches [19] and the existing application [17], utilizing an occlusion area will be a reliable approach to reduce occurrences of IDIR. It is important to point out that in making the dynamical occlusion area without any pen nib information, this then requires other information which detects can detect hand positions.…”

“…Other palmrejection techniques require the user to bring the pen tip on or near the screen before setting the palm down, which requires users to modify their natural movements (e.g. [55], or Microsoft Windows tablets, which turn off touch when the pen comes in range). Our approach uses sensors to detect when a touchscreen contact is associated with the hand holding the pen, thus showing that the problem can be framed as one of sensing appropriate contextual information.…”

“…In the modern context of multi-touch tablets, pen input has received renewed interest, particularly when used as a distinct modality in tandem with touch [21,34,55]. However, many problems and ambiguities arise because the system can't easily determine whether the user intends to interact with the pen, with touch, or with the two in combination.…”
