Abstract:
A computing device (e.g., a host computer in communication with a tablet input device) receives pen data corresponding to first and second positions of a pen device. The computing device compares the first and second positions to obtain an angle and an offset distance between the positions. The computing device selects a scrolling direction (either vertical or horizontal) based on the angle, with the selection being biased towards vertical scrolling. The computing device determines a number of scrolling events based on the offset distance, which may include comparing the offset distance with a preselected minimum distance. The computing device sends the scrolling events to an application executing on the computing device. The scrolling events cause the application to render scrolling in the selected scrolling direction. The pen data may include an indication of pen-down status and/or pen button activation to help determine whether to activate or terminate scrolling.

Claim (Index 19):
A computer-implemented method executed by a computing device comprising one or more processors, the computing device being communicatively coupled to a tablet input device, the method comprising:\n receiving first pen data corresponding to a first pen event detected by the tablet input device, wherein the first pen event comprises a first pen angle value; receiving second pen data corresponding to a second pen event detected by the tablet input device, wherein the second pen event comprises a second pen angle value; performing a comparison of the first pen angle value and the second pen angle value to obtain a pen angle delta between the second pen angle value and the first pen angle value; determining an application control event based at least in part on the size of the pen angle delta; and sending the application control event to an application executing on the computing device, wherein the application control event is configured to control at least part of the functionality of the application.
