Abstract
Embodiments of drop target gestures are described. In various embodiments, a first input on a touch-screen is detected and determined as a selection of an object displayed on the touch-screen. A second input on the touch-screen is detected and determined as a selection of a target position to move the object, the second input being detected while the first input remains in contact with the touch-screen. The first input is then detected as no longer being in contact with the touch-screen, and a display of the object is initiated at the target position on the touch-screen giving the appearance that the object moves from a location of the first input to the second input.
