DYNAMIC CONTEXTUAL MENU FOR TOUCH-SENSITIVE DEVICES

One aspect of the invention is a system for providing a dynamic contextual touch menu. The system includes a multi-touch display and processing circuitry coupled to the multi-touch display. The processing circuitry is configured to detect a contextual menu display request in response to a touch detected on the multi-touch display. The processing circuitry is configured to display a dynamic contextual touch menu associated with a first element as a targeted element in response to the detected contextual menu display request. The processing circuitry is also configured to modify content of the dynamic contextual touch menu to align with a second element as the targeted element in response to a detected motion on the multi-touch display between the first and second elements.
