Abstract
Techniques for layout for a touch input surface are described. Generally, the described techniques enable a touch input surface and/or combination of touch input surfaces to be characterized as a single logical input surface. Based on different contextual factors, the single logical input surface can be divided into different touch input zones that can each receive touch input to invoke a different respective functionality. In at least some implementations, different haptic effects can be output to correspond to different touch input zones.
