Abstract

Systems, methods and circuits for providing GUI controls with touch-gesture inputs with movable alternate interaction objects. The GUI controls include (i) a set of base interactions associated with touch gestures available over substantially an entire viewing area and (ii) a plurality of alternate interaction icons that are individually movable over the display via touch gestures by a user touch to allow one or more users to interact with the visualization presented on the display. The alternate interaction icons each have a set of alternate interaction choices that are different from the set of base interactions and appear on the display only when a selected respective alternate interaction icon is touched.
