1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- detecting at least two touches on a touch screen;
determining touch areas each corresponding to one of the at least two touches;
determining a location on the touch screen in proximity to, but at least partially outside of the touch areas; and
displaying a point of interaction at the determined location on the touch screen.

21. An electronic device, comprising:
-
a touch screen for receiving touch input; a processor to execute instructions; and a memory coupled with the processor to store instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations to generate an application programming interface (API) that allows an API-calling component to perform the following operations; detecting at least two touches on the touch screen; determining touch areas each corresponding to one of the at least two touches; determining a location on the touch screen in proximity of, but at least partially outside of the touch areas; and displaying a point of interaction at the determined location on the touch screen. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)
