Abstract

See full text

Multi-touch user interface interaction is described. In an embodiment, an object in a user interface (UI) is manipulated by a cursor and a representation of a plurality of digits of a user. At least one parameter, which comprises the cursor location in the UI, is used to determine that multi-touch input is to be provided to the object. Responsive to this, the relative movement of the digits is analyzed and the object manipulated accordingly. In another embodiment, an object in a UI is manipulated by a representation of a plurality of digits of a user. Movement of each digit by the user moves the corresponding representation in the UI, and the movement velocity of the representation is a non-linear function of the digit's velocity. After determining that multi-touch input is to be provided to the object, the relative movement of the representations is analyzed and the object manipulated accordingly.
