A first touch is sensed at a first button on a capacitive touch sensor. A second button on the capacitive touch sensor is activated using one of a search-and-tap technique or a search-and-lift technique.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- sensing a first touch at a first button on a capacitive touch sensor;
- and
- activating a second button on the capacitive touch sensor using one of a search-and-tap technique or a search-and-lift technique.
An article of manufacture, comprising:
- a machine-readable medium including instructions that, if executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
- sensing a first touch at a first button on a capacitive touch sensor;
- and
- activating a second button on the capacitive touch sensor using one of a search-and-tap technique or a search-and-lift technique.
