A method in a KVM switch system for interacting with the user to switch computer ports using a touch panel device having a touch-sensitive screen is described. The system allows a user to accomplish port switching by “drawing” a symbol (such as an Arabic number) representing a port number on the touch screen, coupled with other actions, such as one or more touches of the screen, an action using another input device such as a mouse, keyboard, buttons, etc., to confirm the port number input.
