User protocols that utilize a computers touchscreen as a display sized touchpad for computer control with both an intermediate cursor and direct finger touch computer control capability. One protocol combines: cursor initiation where and when a single finger contacts appropriate touchscreen locations; accurate cursor positioning with directional and distance controlling screen contacting motions; and creating touchpad button down events with a delayed additional finger making momentary or continuing finger screen contacts while a preceding finger is still in contact. Cursor Initiation eliminates searching for the cursor, and enables a deft selection capability comparable to direct touch selection.

Both protocols enable: precision selection capability vs. significant direct finger contact selection limitations; probing how the image display is organized before selection; and the use of software and operating systems functionally similar to that on cursor based personal computers.
