Abstract
An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that provide for a replicated user interface, including a replicated active display area and a replicated boundary area, such that the replicated user interface can recognize the same types of user inputs that are recognized by a remote user interface, and the same operations may be executed upon receipt of such inputs. The apparatus can establish a communications link with the remote user interface and determine whether the remote user interface is configured to detect a user input at least partially received in a boundary area outside an active display area of the remote user interface. A replicated active display area and a replicated boundary area may then be provided for in response to a determination that the remote user interface is configured to detect a user input at least partially received in the boundary area of the remote user interface.
