1. A method comprising:
operating, by a processor of a decoding device, a scanning engine to capture an image of an object with an encoded data marking within a field of view (FOV) of the scanning engine;
operating, by a processor of a decoding device, a display component of a touch screen display of the decoding device to display an initial icon on the touch screen display;
monitoring, by the processor, at least one tactile component of the touch screen display to detect a commencement of pressing of a tip of a digit of a hand on the touch screen display at the initial icon; and
in response to the detection of the commencement of the digit tip press, and in response to the digit tip press commencing with a pressure greater than a predetermined lower pressure level and less than a predetermined higher pressure level, performing predetermined operations and operating the at least one tactile component of the touch screen to provide haptic feedback indicative of the performed predetermined operations.
