31. A method for determining a current level of an interactive bargraph, comprising:
-
associating an interactive bargraph with an independent non-visible touch map image having a plurality of pixel values;
retrieving a current pointer coordinate from the interactive bargraph;
translating the current pointer coordinate into the touch map image;
retrieving one of the plurality of pixel values based on the translated current pointer coordinate; and
determining the current level of the interactive bargraph based on the retrieved pixel value.
