Systems and methods of blocking, ignoring, suspending, or otherwise altering edge-related UI gestures on touch-sensitive computing devices or on non-touch sensitive computing devices having active edge I/O commands in certain situations are disclosed. In one embodiment, a second UI gesture coming from an outside edge may be altered after a first UI gesture from a user using an running application under certain conditions—e.g., if the second UI gesture is made within a certain time period after the first UI gesture, the second UI gesture is made within a certain proximity of the first UI gesture, etc. In another embodiment, a computing device is disclosed that comprises a controller, a display screen and an operating system that alters certain edge-related UI gestures that might be made by an operating system if, e.g., certain conditions are present. |

1. A method for blocking UI gestures on a computing device, said computing device comprising a display screen, the method comprising:
presenting a UI screen upon said display screen to a user, said UI screen associated with an application that the user is running on said computing device; receiving a first UI gesture from said user, wherein said first UI gesture that starts within the active display area of said display screen and crosses a first edge of said display screen; blocking a UI event associated with a second UI gesture, wherein said second UI gesture starts outside of said active display area of said display screen and crosses an edge of said display screen; and wherein said blocking occurs according to set of blocking conditions. |
