Abstract

System and methods are provided relating to bi-manual operation of a touchscreen. Multiple display elements displayed on the touchscreen are selected. A first input to the touchscreen is received defining a datum on the touchscreen, wherein the first input is resultant from sustained contact between a first hand of a user and the touchscreen. A second input to the touchscreen is received defining a reference point on the touchscreen, wherein the second input is resultant from sustained contact between a second hand of the user and the touchscreen. The multiple display elements are positioned to be displayed on the touchscreen in an evenly distributed manner relative to the datum and the reference point.
