Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for animating a drag gesture are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving a user input that drags a user interface element along a user-induced path across a display. The actions further include moving the user interface element along the user-induced path across the display. The actions further include determining that the user input has ceased. The actions further include determining an additional path and a speed for the user interface element to move along the additional path based on the user-induced path and a speed of the user input. The actions further include moving the user interface element along the additional path to a resting location at the determined speed for the user interface element to move along the additional path.
