Abstract
The invention relates, in an embodiment, to a system for handling one or more pop-up messages activated by one or more applications and displayed on an output device associated with an electronic device, the electronic device is associated with an input device is provided. The system for handling pop-up messages includes an identification module to identify an active pop-message activated by an application of one or more applications. The system for handling pop-up messages also includes a recording control module to record a movement path associated with the input device. The system for handling pop-up messages also includes a translation module configured to translate recorded data pertaining to the movement path into a command pertaining to the active pop-up message.

A system for handling one or more pop-up messages, the one or more pop-up messages activated by one or more applications and displayed on an output device associated with an electronic device, the electronic device also associated with an input device, the system comprising:
- an identification module configured to identify an active pop-up message, the active pop-up message activated by an application of the one or more applications;
- a recording control module configured to control recording for at least a movement path associated with the input device;
- a translation module configured to translate recorded data pertaining to at least the movement path into at least a command pertaining to the active pop-up message, the translation module being configured to translate first data into a first command, the translation module being configured to translate second data into a second command, the second command being different from the first command, the first data pertaining to a first movement path associated with the input device, the second data pertaining to a second movement path associated with the input device, the first movement path being characterized by a first geometric shape, the second movement path being characterized by a second geometric shape, the second geometric shape being different from the first geometric shape;
- and
- programmed circuits for performing one or more tasks associated with one or more of the identification module, the recording control module, and the translation module.
A method for handling one or more pop-up messages, the one or more pop-up messages activated by one or more applications and displayed on an output device associated with an electronic device, the electronic device also associated with an input device, the method comprising:
- identifying an active pop-up message, the active pop-up message activated by an application of the one or more applications;
- controlling recording for a movement path associated with the input device, the movement path being characterized by a geometric shape;
- and
- translating recorded data pertaining to the movement path into a command pertaining to the active pop-up message, the command being a first command if the geometric shape is a first geometric shape, the command being a second command if the geometric shape is a second geometric shape, the second command being different from the first command, the second geometric shape being different from the first geometric shape.
