Abstract
A method for controlling an electronic device includes the steps of: upon detecting a single-object touch on a touch pad when the electronic device operates in a cursor mode, where movement of a cursor in a visual display displayed on the display screen is enabled and controlled in response to and in correspondence with a single-object sliding touch motion on the touch pad, configuring the electronic device to determine whether a time interval that the single-object touch remains substantially stationary on the touch pad reaches a predefined threshold value; and when it is determined that the time interval reaches the predefined threshold value, configuring the electronic device to exit the cursor mode and enter a scrolling mode, where scrolling of the visual display is enabled and controlled in response to and in correspondence with a single-object sliding touch motion on the touch pad.
