This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for activating a function by selecting a graphical user interface (GUI) element on a screen of a vehicle using a capacitive controller. In some implementations, the method can include detecting an active selection of a first GUI element on the screen of the vehicle selectable using the capacitive controller positioned on a steering wheel of the vehicle. In addition, the method can include detecting a movement of a finger of a driver in the vehicle across the capacitive controller on the steering wheel of the vehicle. The method can further include determining a direction of the movement of the finger. The method can additionally include automatically moving the active selection to a second selectable GUI element on the screen based on the direction of the movement of the finger.
