Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising: displaying an object on a touch surface; detecting a plurality of simultaneous touch points on the torch surface in proximity to the displayed object; determining a direction between the simultaneous touch points; using the direction, establishing at least first and second locations of respective first and second types of sectors on the touch surface, the first type of sector being associated with a first type of command, the second type of sector being associated with a second type of command, the first location of the first type of sector being established to have a first relationship to the direction, the second location of the second type of sector being established to have a second relationship to the direction, the locations being dynamically ate d based on directions between subsequent plural simultaneous touch points; detecting one or more touch point movements originating from one or more of the plurality of touch points; for each of the one or more touch point movements, identifying a type of sector in which each of the one or more touch point movements enters; and in response to determining that one of the touch point movements enters a rotate sector, forming a rotate command on the object.
