1. A touch-sensitive sheet member comprising:
- a first raw material member having predetermined hardness; and
a second raw material member being disposed in the first raw material member,wherein the second raw material member has hardness different from the hardness of the first raw material member, andwherein the first raw material member and the second raw material member are configured to present an operator with a sliding sense of touch including at least one of a repeated concavity feeling and a repeated convexity feeling in response to a sliding operation across the touch-sensitive sheet member.
