Abstract

See full text

An electronic device, computer implemented method and computer program product adapted to facilitate the management of and application of actions to objects displayed on the electronic device are disclosed. A wire metaphor, including so-called pass-through and lassoing techniques are used to illustrate the use of an uninterrupted gesture path to facilitate the contextual selection and application of a predefined action to associated target objects displayed on a mobile device that employs a touch screen user interface. Examples of such actions include grouping, moving, arranging, aligning, distributing, joining, and applying a theme to the selected target objects.
