Abstract
A touch type input device includes a display capable of showing a plurality of icons. A detector detects touching of an operation surface. A controller moves operational coordinates on the display based on the detection of the detector. The controller selects one of the icons in accordance with a region in which the operational coordinates are located. Further, the controller moves the operational coordinates to a specified position in the region where the operational coordinates are located when a touch-release operation is performed indicating that the touching of the operation surface has been cancelled.
