Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provides methods, computer program products, and a system for determining a probable user selection on a user interface and generating a functional shadow cursor that is displayed on the user interface at a determined location of most probable user selection. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to access a user interface, generate a shadow cursor on the user interface based on a generated transition graph, and disabling the original cursor. In response to receiving user feedback, embodiments of the present invention can remove and disable the shadow cursor and return the original cursor as the sole functioning cursor. In response to receiving user feedback, embodiments of the present invention can shift the generated shadow cursor to a next probable selection.
