1. An input arrangement for controlling an electronic device, comprising: a substrate having a position-coding pattern printed thereon, said position-coding pattern coding first and second sets of absolute positions on spatially separate areas of said substrate, said first and second sets of absolute positions being mutually exclusive and coded by first and second subsets of said position-coding pattern; a handheld image-recording device comprising an image sensor for recording images of said position-coding pattern; and processing means configured for deriving at least one absolute position from the position-coding pattern in the recorded image, and for providing an instruction to the electronic device to perform a first function when said at least one absolute position belongs to the first set and a second function when said at least one absolute position belongs to the second set.
