Controlling responsiveness to user inputs on a touch-sensitive display
First Claim
1. Apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory having computer-readable code stored thereon which when executed controls the at least one processor:
- to cause display of content generated by a software application associated with the processor;
to receive signals indicative of touch inputs on a touch-sensitive display; and
to respond to detection of a content window provided by the software application being enlarged by entering a first mode in which touch-based interactions in one or more predetermined sub-regions at a perimeter of the touch-sensitive display are rejected.

Abstract
A communications terminal comprises a and a touch-sensitive display for displaying content generated by a software application associated with the processor and for receiving touch-based interactions for use with said software application. A display controller is operable to selectively accept and reject touch-based interactions in one or more predetermined sub-region(s) of the touch-sensitive display. Interactions in said sub-region(s) are rejected in response to said software application being woken from an idle state by an event triggered independent of user interaction and subsequently accepted in response to a predetermined event, for example by user action in an active zone outside of the sub-region(s).

8. A method comprising:
-
causing display of content generated by a software application associated with the processor; receiving signals indicative of touch inputs on a touch-sensitive display; and responding to detection of a content window provided by the software application being enlarged by entering a first mode in which touch-based interactions in one or more predetermined sub-regions at a perimeter of the touch-sensitive display are rejected.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-readable code, which, when executed by computing apparatus, causes the computing apparatus to perform a method comprising:
-
causing display of content generated by a software application associated with the processor; receiving signals indicative of touch inputs on a touch-sensitive display; and responding to detection of a content window provided by the software application being enlarged by entering a first mode in which touch-based interactions in one or more predetermined sub-regions at a perimeter of the touch-sensitive display are rejected.
