Embodiment Construction

[0027] For the sake of clarity, the drawings show only the details necessary for an understanding of the invention. In order to emphasize the characteristics of the invention, structures and details which are not necessary for understanding the invention and which are obvious to a person skilled in the art have been omitted from the drawings.

[0028] FIG. 1 shows in a schematic diagram an electronic device 1 comprising at least a touch screen 2 and a touch tool 3 and a clamp 4 for the touch tool. In the example shown, the means for detecting the state (mode) of the touching tool 3 is a presence detector 5 , such as eg a switch or a sensor, which is used to generate information when the touching tool 3 is in position in the holder 4 . In addition, the electronic device 1 may comprise other necessary structures, such as eg a button 6 . Mobile communication applications are naturally also equipped with means for communication.

[0029] In this context, it should be mentioned t...
