Abstract

A mouse cursor control method, applied in a computer, includes receiving a first pressing gesture and a second pressing gesture, when the first pressing gesture maintains and recognizes the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture as a function of a left mouse button or a right mouse button according to a position relationship between the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture.

Claims

1. A computer, comprising:

a display, the display configured to display a mouse cursor;

a touch panel, the touch panel configured to receive a first pressing gesture and to receive a second pressing gesture when the first pressing gesture maintains; and

a computer system, the computer system configured to recognize the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture as a function of a left mouse button or a right mouse button according to a position relationship between the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture;

wherein a first touch point is defined between the touch panel and the first pressing gesture and a second touch point is defined between the second pressing gesture and the touch panel;

the computer system is configured to recognize two sliding gestures as a “

drag”

function of the left mouse button when the touch panel senses the two sliding gestures sliding from the first touch point and the second touch point along the same direction.

2. The computer of claim 1, wherein the computer system is configured to recognize the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture as a left mouse button when the first pressing gesture is located on a left side of the second pressing gesture.

3. The computer of claim 2, wherein the computer system is configured to recognize a “

click”

gesture as a “

click”

function of the left mouse button when the touch panel senses the first pressing gesture and the “

click”

gesture.

4. The computer of claim 2, wherein the computer system is configured to recognize a “

double click”

gesture as a “

double click”

function of the left mouse button when the touch panel senses the first pressing gesture and the “

double click”

gesture.

5. The computer of claim 1, wherein the touch panel is made of carbon nano tube.

6. A mouse cursor control method, applied in a computer, comprising:

receiving, by a touch panel, a first pressing gesture and a second pressing gesture when the first pressing gesture maintains;

recognizing, by a computer system, the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture as a function of a left mouse button or a right mouse button according to a position relationship between the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture, and

recognizing two sliding gestures as a “

drag”

function of the left mouse button when the touch panel senses the two sliding gestures sliding from a first touch point and a second touch point along the same direction;

wherein the first touch point is defined between the touch panel and the first pressing gesture and the second touch point is defined between the second pressing gesture and the touch panel.

7. The mouse cursor control method of claim 6, wherein recognizing, by the computer system, the first pressing gesture and the second pressing gesture as a left mouse button when the first pressing gesture is located on a left side of the second pressing gesture.

8. The mouse cursor control method of claim 7, wherein recognizing, by the computer system, a “

click”

gesture as a “

click”

function of the left mouse button when the touch panel senses the first pressing gesture and the “

click”

gesture.

9. The mouse cursor control method of claim 7, wherein recognizing, by the computer system, a “

double click”

gesture as a “

double click”

function of the left mouse button when the touch panel senses the first pressing gesture and the “

double click”

gesture.

10. The mouse cursor control method of claim 6, wherein the touch panel is made of carbon nano tube.
