Abstract
Methods, devices, and computer readable storage device for navigation of a touchscreen display include calculating a scaled position based on a scaling factor. The scaling factor is based on dimensions of a region of reach and dimensions of the touchscreen display.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- determining, by a processor, a region of reach, wherein the region of reach corresponds to a portion of a touchscreen display of a device;
- calculating, by the processor, a value of a scaling factor based on factors comprising:
- dimensions of the region of reach;
- dimensions of the touchscreen display;
- a movement direction;
- an initial touchdown point;
- and
- calculating, by the processor, a scaled position, wherein the scaled position is based on factors comprising:
- the initial touchdown point;
- a direct position of a user contact on the touchscreen display;
- and
- the value of the scaling factor.
