Abstract

A touch interface includes a display screen. The interface detects an approach and a position of a finger of a user with respect to the screen. The interface displays on the screen at least one graphical element associated with a touch-selection zone, surrounding an anchor point of the graphical element on the screen. The interface estimates a trajectory of a point of the finger and an impact point of the trajectory on the screen, and moves the graphical element in the direction of the impact point, when a distance between the anchor point and the impact point falls below a first threshold.
