ABSTRACT:
Transforming the size of an input position indicator, such as a cursor, within a window presented by a display screen of a computer system. The window typically includes borders defining an enclosed presentation area for displaying information on the display screen. In response to determining the position of the input position indicator within the window, the size of the input position indicator can be transformed based upon that position determination.
