Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for touch event processing are provided. A touch input is received in a designated region of a touchscreen display of the electronic device. The touch input is stored in a memory of the electronic device without providing the touch input as input to an application of the electronic device, upon reception of the touch input in the designated region. A drag input is received on the touch screen display as a continuation of the touch input. A processor of the electronic device determines the touch input and the drag input as input for the application upon the drag input exceeding a threshold.
