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):
The user input device of  claim 1 , wherein the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface comprises a capacitive sensor for detecting physical contact of the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface to provide the coordinate signal and a second sensor for detecting when the adjustable, touch-sensitive interface has been depressed to provide the actuation signal, wherein the capacitive sensor is divided into a plurality of electrically isolated regions, and wherein each of the plurality of electrically isolated regions corresponds to one of the plurality of virtual regions.
