Methods and systems for facilitating electronic transactions on a mobile communications device are described. Available funding sources for sending funds to a contact from a list of contacts is provided for display on a graphical user interface (GUI) of a mobile communications device. A selection of a funding source from the available funding sources is received from the mobile communications device. In response to receiving a selection of the funding source, a payment indicator is provided for display on the GUI. A touch input associated with the payment indicator is receiving via the GUI. A transaction amount is determined based on a contact point dependent measurement of the touch input. The determined transaction amount along with the payment indicator is provided for display on the GUI.

This relates to a technology capable of efficiently deciding a screen layer to which a user input event should be delivered even when screen layers that do not receive the user input event are displayed in an overlapping manner other than a screen layer that should receive the user input event. A user interface device includes an acquisition unit, a transmission unit, a determination unit, and a decision unit. On the basis of inquiry information from the transmission unit, the determination unit concurrently determines, for a plurality of screen layers, whether input information is accepted in each of the screen layers. The decision unit decides the screen layer based on a determination result.

Systems and methods of providing content selection are provided. For instance, one or more signals indicative of a user selection of an object displayed within a user interface can be received. Responsive to receiving the one or more signals, a content attribute associated with one or more objects displayed within the user interface can be identified. A content entity can be determined based at least in part on the content attribute and the user selection. One or more relevant actions can then be determined based at least in part on the determined content entity. Data indicative of the relevant actions can then be provided for display.

An electronic mail (email) system generates an email user interface display, that allows the user to enter message content. A context-sensitive calendar preview can be triggered and displayed on the email user interface display. The email system detects a user drag and drop input dragging at least a portion of the message content onto the calendar preview, and automatically generates a calendar event based upon the detected drag and drop input, and the particular portion of the message content dragged onto the context-sensitive calendar preview.
