METHOD, DEVICE AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR OBJECT DRAGGING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18435973 titled 'METHOD, DEVICE AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR OBJECT DRAGGING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for object dragging between different operating systems on an electronic device. Here is a simplified explanation of the patent application:

  • Establish a connection between two different operating systems on an electronic device.
  • When a user performs a drag operation on an object in one application, obtain position information related to the drag.
  • Determine if the target application window belongs to a different application in the second operating system.
  • If a drag release operation is detected, send drag data from the first application to the second application.
  • Perform a target operation on the object in the second application based on the drag data.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in software development tools, file management systems, and cross-platform applications.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of seamlessly transferring data between different operating systems on the same device.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved workflow efficiency, enhanced user experience, and increased compatibility between different applications.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include software development tools, productivity applications, and data management systems.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be the use of drag and drop functionality between different applications on the same operating system.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle security concerns when transferring data between different operating systems?

This article does not address the security measures in place to protect the data being transferred between operating systems.

Are there any limitations to the size or type of data that can be transferred using this technology?

The article does not mention any limitations regarding the size or type of data that can be transferred between applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, devices and storage media are provided for object dragging implemented at an electronic device. One of the methods includes establishing a connection between a first operating system and a second operating system; in response to a drag operation by a user on a target object in a first application in the first operating system, obtaining position information corresponding to the drag operation; in accordance with a determination that an application window corresponding to the position information belongs to a window of a second application in the second operating system, and that a drag release operation by the user on the target object is received, controlling the first application to send drag data of the target object to the second application; and performing, based on the drag data, a target operation on the target object in the second application.
