19. One or more computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein when executed by at least one processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the at least one processor to:
-
receive signals indicating a touch has been sensed on a touch screen display displaying a cartographic map; cause at least one toolbar to be displayed at an edge of the touch screen display in response to the received signals; receive signals indicating a finger movement has been sensed along one of the at least one toolbars; and cause a configuration of the displayed map to be changed based on the sensed finger movement. - View Dependent Claims (20)
