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 10):
A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:\n presenting an interface to identify a plurality of virtual regions of an input accessory according to a user input to define configuration data, wherein the interface comprises a graphical user interface to receive the user input to define the plurality of virtual regions according to the configuration data, wherein the graphical user interface presents an illustration of an adjustable, touch-sensitive interface of the input accessory to receive the user input to define the plurality of virtual regions, 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; receiving the user input to subdivide the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface of the input accessory into a plurality of sectors for defining a plurality of buttons according to the plurality of virtual regions, wherein each sector of the plurality of sectors corresponds to a distinct button; receiving a first signal from the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface of the input accessory, wherein the first signal comprises an indication of a touching of a sector of the plurality of sectors, and wherein the touching of the sector identifies the distinct button associated with the sector; and receiving a second signal from a second sensor indicating an activation of the distinct button, wherein the second signal is provided to a current software application of the plurality of software applications.
