Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments, a computing device is described. The device sends instructions to a display of the device for displaying at least a portion of a user interface having one or more selectable objects. The device sends instructions to the display for displaying an object selection indicator at a first size. In response to receiving an input corresponding to a first gesture, the device sends instructions to the display for moving the object selection indicator towards a target selectable object of the one or more selectable objects in accordance with the first gesture. After receiving an input that corresponds to detecting an end of the first gesture, the device sends instructions to the display for resizing the object selection indicator to a second size that is based on a size of the target selectable object and is distinct from the first size.
