Abstract
The invention concerns a method, touch input display device and computer program product for moving at least one object presented by the touch input display device. In the touch input display device it is detected that a touching member (46) is at least in close proximity of a first object (38) at a first location provided by the touch input display device, a distancing factor of the first object caused by the detection of the touching member is determined and the first object is moved in a direction and a distance selected according to the distancing factor for presenting the object at a second location. The invention allows the rearranging of objects provided by the device such that they better suit a user.
