Abstract:
A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method for subdividing a touch-sensitive interface of a mouse accessory into a first plurality of sectors for defining a first plurality of mouse buttons, where each sector of the first plurality of sectors corresponds to a distinct mouse button. The method can further include receiving a first signal from the touch-sensitive interface of the mouse accessory, detecting, from the first signal a selection of a sector of the first plurality of sectors, and generating a second signal indicating the selection of the sector. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 1):
A user input device, comprising:\n an adjustable, touch-sensitive interface; a processing system including a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:\n receiving, from a computing device communicatively coupled to the user input device, user input to identify a plurality of virtual regions of the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface to define a plurality of buttons, wherein the user input is received via a graphical user interface provided at the computing device, wherein the graphical user interface provides an illustration of the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface and the plurality of virtual regions, and wherein the graphical user interface provides a selection of a plurality of software applications to associate the plurality of virtual regions with a plurality of commands for each software application of the plurality of software applications; \n configuring the user input device with the user input received through the graphical user interface; \n receiving a first signal from the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface, wherein the first signal comprises a coordinate signal; and \n receiving a second signal from adjustable, touch-sensitive interface indicating that the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface has been depressed, wherein the second signal is provided to a current software application of the plurality of software applications.
