<p>The present disclosure provides a method and apparatus for changing a property of a stylus (102) input to host electronic device (110). In response to a trigger event, a stylus palette (200) is displayed on the screen (108) of device (110) in proximity to a stylus location. The location and orientation of the stylus palette (200) may also depend on a user's palm position (602) or the orientation (802) of the device. This enables a property of the stylus (102) to be selected in response to stylus interaction with the stylus palette (200). Very little stylus movement is required to make the selection due to the proximity of the palette. The trigger event may be, for example, a press of a button (118) of the stylus, detection of a stylus position within a range of heights above the screen (108) of the host electronic device (110), or detection of a stylus motion gesture such as a shake, tap, or twist.</p> |
