1. A method for determining a user's touch gesture in a touch sensitive device comprising an interaction surface and means capable of only analyzing the location of a single touch point of a continuous single-touch event or a continuous multi-touch touch event, on the interaction surface at a time, the method comprising the steps of: a) determining a plurality of consecutive touch point coordinates of at least one continuous touch event on the interaction surface during the user's touch gesture and b) determining a predetermined single-touch pattern or a multi-touch touch pattern, based on a predetermined relation between the touch point coordinates determined in step a), and c) attributing a predetermined action corresponding to the touch pattern determined during step b).
