Abstract

See full text

A system and method for providing a continuous input mode is disclosed. In the continuous input mode, a combination of a vector signal and a command signal is received from an input device. Upon receipt of a vector signal and a command signal, an image is moved on a display screen, for example. The image continues to move until the command signal is terminated. If a new vector signal is received prior to termination of the command signal, then the direction of image movement may be changed and will occur until termination of the command signal. Additional aspects of the present invention relate to input devices and computer-readable media with computer executable instructions utilized in switching between the input modes.
