Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a display presenting a user interface (UI) comprising a pyramidical arrangement of a set of symbols, wherein the pyramidical arrangement comprises a plurality of rows of symbols with each row of symbols comprising one more symbol than a row that precedes it and a base row comprising a symbol for each touch of a touch combination involving at least three different fingers of a user and wherein each symbol of the set of symbols identifies a different executable operation of a set of operations; a multiple touch sensing input device; and a processor performing different operations from the set of operations based on different touch actions received from the multiple touch sensing input device, wherein each individual touch of the at least three finger touch combination produces a touch action that performs a different operation that is identified by a different symbol at the base row, different pairs of two touches of the at least three finger touch combination produce touch actions that perform different operations that are identified by symbols in a first row preceding the base row, and a set of three touches of the at least three finger touch combination produces a touch action that performs a different operation that is identified by a symbol in a second row preceding the first row.
