Abstract

Techniques for managing screen input information associated with configurable gestures may be provided. For example, configuration information associated with a performable gesture and an operation may be received from an application. An association between the gesture, the operation and the application may be stored such that the operation is performed when the gesture is detected as having been performed. The operation may be global or application-specific. In some embodiments, a user is able to update a particular association. For example, the user may update a gesture associated with an operation, or the user may update an operation associated with a particular gesture.
