Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes receiving user input comprising a gesture on a touchscreen, the gesture having a gesture velocity. The gesture velocity is compared with an inertia movement threshold. Based on the comparing, the gesture is determined to be an inertia gesture. When the gesture velocity is greater than or equal to the inertia movement threshold, simulated inertia is applied to visual information displayed on the touchscreen.
