Abstract:
A method and device are described for determining input regions that are affected by a user input at a graphical user interface, GUI. For each input region, the following are associated with one another: (i) an actuation level of the input region, (ii) an allocation of the input region to a region of the GUI, and (iii) a blocking type of the input region. The method includes detecting a user input, wherein the user input is allocated an input position on the GUI. The method additionally includes determining at least one input region that contains the input position. Finally, the method includes evaluating the blocking type allocated to that input region in order to determine whether the user input to at least one lower-ranking input region that contains the input position is blocked.

Claim (Index 16):
A device for determining input regions that are affected by a user input at a graphical user interface, GUI, wherein for each input region the following are associated with one another:\n (i) an actuation level of the input region, wherein a plurality of actuation levels is defined in an order of ranking; (ii) an allocation of the input region to a region of the GUI; and (iii) a blocking type of the input region, which indicates whether a user input to a lower-ranking actuation level is blocked; wherein the device comprises a processor which is adapted: to detect a user input, wherein the user input is allocated an input position on the GUI; to determine at least one input region that contains the input position; and to evaluate, at least for the highest-ranking determined input region, the blocking type allocated to that input region in order to determine whether the user input to at least one lower-ranking input region that contains the input position is blocked.
