ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for feedback of object size during direct manipulation. In one embodiment, the invention determines whether the file size of an object being directly manipulated exceeds a threshold and, if the file size exceeds the threshold, varies the mouse tracking speed. The mouse tracking speed is preferably reduced if the file size exceeds an upper threshold and increased if the file size exceeds (falls below) a lower threshold. The mouse tracking speed is preferably restored to its unvaried value upon the conclusion of the direct manipulation.
