1. A computer implemented method for emulating a mouse with a multi-touch sensitive display surface, wherein a touching of the multi-touch sensitive display surface by a user creates a capacitive coupling between the user and the multi-touch sensitive display surface at a location of the touching, comprising the steps of:

  • sensing concurrently a first touching by a first finger at a first location on a multi-touch sensitive display surface and a second touching by a second finger at a second location on the multi-touch sensitive display surface, wherein the sensing uses capacitive couplings between the user and the multi-touch sensitive display surface; and

    displaying a graphic object on the multi-touch display surface at a position dependent on the first location and the second location.
