Technologies are generally described for providing a tethered selection handle for direct selection of content on a touch or gesture interface. Touch or gesture input on a computing device may be detected to begin content selection, and a start handle may be displayed near the initial input location. An end handle may be displayed to indicate an end of the selection. After the selection, the end handle, a portion of the end handle, or a separate indicator may be displayed at a location of user's current interaction point to indicate to the user that the computing device is aware of the movement of the user's interaction point away from the end handle, but the content selection had not changed. The newly displayed indicator may be tethered to the end handle to further indicate the connection between the end of the selected content and the user's current interaction point. |
