ABSTRACT:
A graphical pointing device and method for controlling a graphical pointer displayed within a display device of a data processing system are disclosed. The graphical pointing device includes a transducer, which converts manipulation of the graphical pointing device into electrical signals utilized by a data processing system to move a graphical pointer displayed within a display device. In addition, the graphical pointing device includes a graphical pointer speed control for varying a relationship between the electrical signals and manipulation of the graphical pointing device, thereby enabling the graphical pointer to be moved within the display device at various speeds by differing adjustments of the graphical pointer speed control without modifying programming within the data processing system.
