Abstract

See full text

A method and hand held electronic device are provided for performing a dual sided gesture on respective touch sensitive surfaces of a hand held electronic device. The method includes displaying an object on a display screen of the hand held electronic device, that is viewable from at least one side of the hand held electronic device. A virtual center of gravity associated with the displayed object is then defined. Simultaneous gestures are then received tracking the position and movement of an end of a pointer on each of a pair of respective surfaces of the hand held electronic device, each surface having a corresponding touch sensitive input. The location and movement of each gesture is then compared relative to the defined virtual center of gravity, and the displayed object is repositioned in response to the location and movement of each gesture relative to the defined virtual center of gravity.
