CONTEXT SENSITIVE ACTIONS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- displaying, by an electronic device, a user interface of an application;
receiving, by the electronic device, touch input in a region of the displayed user interface;
determining, by the electronic device, a context;
if the determined context is a first context, performing, by the electronic device, an action if the touch input is a first touch input; and
if the determined context is a second context different from the first context, performing, by the electronic device, the action if the touch input is a second touch input, wherein the second touch input is different from the first touch input.

Abstract
Techniques for performing context-sensitive actions in response to touch input are provided. A user interface of an application can be displayed. Touch input can be received in a region of the displayed user interface, and a context can be determined. A first action may be performed if the context is a first context and a second action may instead be performed if the context is a second context different from the first context. In some embodiments, an action may be performed if the context is a first context and the touch input is a first touch input, and may also be performed if the context is a second context and the touch input is a second touch input

10. A computer-readable memory storing a plurality of instructions for controlling one or more processors, the plurality of instructions comprising:
-
instructions that cause at least one processor from the one or more processors to display a user interface of an application; instructions that cause at least one processor from the one or more processors to receive touch input in a region of the displayed user interface; instructions that cause at least one processor from the one or more processors to determine a context; instructions that cause at least one processor from the one or more processors to, if the determined context is a first context, perform an action if the touch input is a first touch input; and instructions that cause at least one processor from the one or more processors to, if the determined context is a second context different from the first context, perform the action if the touch input is a second touch input, wherein the second touch input is different from the first touch input. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system comprising:
-
a memory; and one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to; display a user interface of an application; receive touch input in a region of the displayed user interface; determine a context; if the determined context is a first context, perform an action if the touch input is a first touch input; and if the determined context is a second context different from the first context, perform the action if the touch input is a second touch input, wherein the second touch input is different from the first touch input. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
