MANIPULATION OF GRAPHICAL ELEMENTS VIA GESTURES
First Claim
1. A method of operating a touch sensitive display screen of a computing device comprising:
- displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) element on the touch sensitive display screen;
in response to receiving touch input data indicative of a one-touch gesture, mapping the one-touch gesture to a corresponding GUI element function;
in response to receiving touch input data indicative of a multi-touch gesture, mapping the multi-touch gesture to the corresponding GUI element function; and
transforming display of the GUI element on the touch sensitive display screen based on the corresponding GUI element function.

Abstract
A method of operating a graphical user interface of a computing device is disclosed. The method comprises displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) element on the touch sensitive display screen. The method further comprises in response to receiving touch input data indicative of a one-touch gesture mapping the one-touch gesture to a corresponding GUI element function. The method further comprises in response to receiving touch input data indicative of a multi-touch gesture, mapping the multi-touch gesture to the corresponding GUI element function. The method further comprises transforming display of the GUI element on the touch sensitive display screen based on the corresponding GUI element function.

11. A touch sensitive computing system comprising:
-
a touch sensitive display screen configured to generate touch input data based on touch input on the touch sensitive display screen; and a graphical user interface (GUI) program configured to display a GUI element on the touch sensitive display screen that is selectively transformable based on the touch input data, the GUI program comprising; a gesture recognizer comprising; a one-touch module configured to receive the touch input data and recognize a one-touch gesture; a multi-touch module configured to receive the touch input data and recognize a multi-touch gesture; and a gesture library including a plurality of GUI element functions, at least some of the plurality of GUI element functions each being mapped to a corresponding one-touch gesture and a corresponding multi-touch gesture, the gesture library being configured to provide a selected function of the plurality of GUI element functions to the touch sensitive display screen to transform display of the GUI element in response to receiving a corresponding one-touch gesture from the one-touch module or a corresponding multi-touch gesture from the multi-touch module that is mapped to the selected function. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method of operating a touch sensitive display screen of a computing device comprising:
-
displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) element on the touch sensitive display screen; in response to receiving touch input data indicative of a first touch input being initiated in or entering a first region of the touch sensitive display screen corresponding to the GUI element, displaying a first set of GUI elements associated with the GUI element; in response to receiving touch input data indicative of the first touch input entering a second region of the touch sensitive display screen corresponding to a selected GUI element of the first set of GUI elements that is being displayed, displaying a second set of GUI elements associated with the selected GUI element; and in response to receiving touch input data indicative of a second touch input being initiated in or entering the second region while the first touch input is in the first region, displaying the second set of GUI elements. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
