APPARATUS, METHOD, COMPUTER PROGRAM AND USER INTERFACE
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor; and
at least one memory including computer program code;
wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to;
provide an active area of a touch sensitive display and an inactive area of the touch sensitive display such that in response to the detection of a user input beginning in the active area, a first function is performed and in response to the detection of a user input beginning in the inactive area the first function is not performed; and
provide a display area of the touch sensitive display configured to display content where the display area overlaps at least a portion of the active area and the inactive area;
wherein the location of the active area is invariant with respect to performance of the first function.

13. A method comprising;
-
configuring a touch sensitive display to provide an active area of the touch sensitive display and an inactive area of the touch sensitive display; configuring a touch sensitive display to provide a display area of the touch sensitive display for displaying content where the display area overlaps at least a portion of the active area and the inactive area; detecting a user input and determining whether the user input began in the active area or the inactive area wherein in response to the detection of a user input beginning in the active area, a first function is performed and in response to the detection of a user input beginning in the inactive area the first function is not performed; and
wherein the location of the active area is invariant with respect to performance of the first function. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
