Abstract

In one aspect, a device includes at least one processor, a touch-enabled display accessible to the at least one processor, and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to detect a hover of a body part of a user or other physical object above the touch-enabled display, where the hover does not include the physical object physically touching the touch-enabled display. The instructions are also executable to identify a graphical object underneath the hover and to cache data associated with the graphical object prior to the graphical object being selected based on the physical object physically touching the touch-enabled display.
