A machine with a display screen may provide a user interface with an edge-aware pointer (e.g., an edge-aware cursor). This pointer may be edge-aware in the sense that the machine may reorient the pointer based on the pointer being moved (e.g., according to input received from a user) near one or more edges of the display screen. The machine may provide a pointer in the form of an offset pointer that is automatically rotated to a new orientation based on the pointer being moved within a threshold distance from the edge of the display screen. Hence, the pointer may enable a user to precisely position the pointer and precisely indicate any location on the display screen, regardless of proximity to any edge of the display screen. |
