1. A method, comprising: activating, by a computing device, a graphical key of a graphical keyboard, wherein the graphical key is associated with a touch-target and is displayed at a touch-based interface, wherein the computing device controls a graphical selector displayed at the touch-based interface using input received at the touch-target; upon activation of the graphical key, receiving gesture input corresponding to a directional gesture at the touch-based interface, wherein the directional gesture is a swipe motion originating at the touch target; and moving the graphical selector from a first graphical location at the touch-based interface to a second graphical location at the touch-based interface by at least one selected increment, wherein the at least one selected increment is at least partially based on a speed of the gesture input originating at the touch target, wherein the at least one selected increment comprises a first increment if the speed of the gesture input is below a speed threshold, and wherein the at least one selected increment comprises a second increment larger than the first increment if the speed of the gesture input is above or equal to the speed threshold, wherein the at least one selected increment is one or more of a space, a letter, a character, a plurality of characters, a word, a line, a sentence, a paragraph, a single pixel, a plurality of pixels, a distance, a block, a row, a column, or an image segment.
