Patent ID: 10365817

Abstract:
A mobile communication terminal has a controller and a touch display. The touch display is arranged to display at least a first graphical object and a second graphical object, receive a touch, and determine a touch position and a touch duration for the touch. The controller is configured to receive the touch position and the touch duration, determine a graphical object, among the first graphical object and the second graphical object, corresponding to the touch position, determine if the touch duration exceeds a reference time threshold, and if so, generate a click event for the corresponding graphical object. The first graphical object is associated with a first time threshold, and the second graphical object is associated with a second time threshold. The first time threshold is different from the second time threshold. The controller is further configured to retrieve the first time threshold if the corresponding graphical object is the first graphical object and use the first time threshold as the reference time threshold, and retrieve the second time threshold if the corresponding graphical object is the second graphical object and use the second time threshold as the reference time threshold. The first time threshold is either higher or lower than said second time threshold depending on one or more of the following: a size, shape or/and color of the corresponding graphical object, a distance from the corresponding graphical object to a neighboring graphical object, a relative location of the corresponding graphical object in a touch area of the touch display, and a level of the corresponding graphical object in a menu hierarchy.
