Abstract

A computing device including a touch sensitive screen to display a graphical representation of a user interface and a processor module configured to control the graphical representation in response to signals representing user interaction. The user interface includes an orbital touch control to move in angular and radial directions relative to a reference point in response to signals representing user interaction with the orbital touch control. The processor module further can generate, in response to the signals representing the user interaction with the orbital touch control, control signals controlling parameters associated with data received at the computing device. The control signals include an indication of a value of a first parameter dependent on an angular position of the orbital touch control relative to the reference point and a value of a second parameter dependent on a radial position of the orbital touch control relative to the reference point.
