Abstract

A method includes detecting movement of a touch on a touch-sensitive display of an electronic device from a first touch location to a second touch location. When the distance between the first touch location and the second touch location meets a first threshold, the second touch location is reported to an application layer of the electronic device. After the first threshold is met, a third touch location is reported to the application layer when movement of the touch from the second touch location to the third touch location is detected and the distance between the second touch location and the third touch location meets a second threshold.
