A method for operating an electronic device including a touch sensitive display is provided. The method includes displaying at least two application execution screens on the touch sensitive display not to be superposed on one another, receiving a touch input or a hovering input through the touch sensitive display, selecting at least one application execution screen among the at least two application execution screens at least partially in response to the reception of the touch input or the hovering input, and displaying the selected application execution screen to be superposed on at least a portion of a non-selected application execution screen among the at least two application execution screens.

Electronic device including touch sensitive display and method for managing the display

A method of executing an application in a touch device is provided. The method includes displaying an execution screen of a first application as a full screen, receiving an input of an execution event for executing a second application, configuring a multi-window in a split scheme when the execution event is released on a specific window, and independently displaying screens of the first application and the second application through respective split windows.

Method and apparatus for providing multi-window in touch device

A method and an apparatus for changing a screen in an electronic device that provides a plurality of windows are provided. The method includes providing, by an electronic device, a plurality of windows functionally connected to the electronic device, selecting at least one window displaying a first application among the plurality of windows, obtaining an input related to a second application being executed in the selected at least one window, and displaying the second application through the at least one window, based on the obtained input. The present disclosure is not limited to a specific embodiment, but various embodiments based on a technical spirit of the present disclosure may be implemented.

Method and apparatus for changing screen in electronic device

An electronic device includes a touch screen display including an organic light emitting layer that is formed of a plurality of pixels, a wireless communication circuit, a processor operatively coupled with the display and the wireless communication circuit, and a memory operatively coupled with the processor. The memory stores instructions that, upon execution, enable the processor to provide a first mode of displaying a first graphical user interface (GUI) on the display by using a first number of colors in a state where all the pixels are turned on, a second mode of displaying a second GUI on the display by using a second number of colors in a state where some of the pixels are turned off, and a third mode of displaying a third GUI on the display by using the first number of colors in a state where some of the pixels are turned off, and select one of the first mode, the second mode or the third mode on the basis of at least one of a state of the electronic device, a content of the GUI or a use pattern of a user.

Method for adaptively controlling low power display mode and electronic device thereof

Methods and apparatuses for touch event processing are provided. A touch input is received in a designated region of a touchscreen display of the electronic device. The touch input is stored in a memory of the electronic device without providing the touch input as input to an application of the electronic device, upon reception of the touch input in the designated region. A drag input is received on the touch screen display as a continuation of the touch input. A processor of the electronic device determines the touch input and the drag input as input for the application upon the drag input exceeding a threshold.

Method and apparatus for performing a function based on a touch event and a relationship to edge and non-edge regions

The disclosed electronic device may include a front plate and a rear plate, a touch screen display exposed through a part of the front plate, a fingerprint sensor disposed to overlap a region of the display when viewed from above the front plate, a processor operatively connected to the display and the fingerprint sensor, and a memory operatively connected to the processor. the memory may store instructions that, when executed by the processor, control the electronic device to display a user interface including a first object at a first location of the display, to obtain a gesture input to drag the first object from the first location to the region, to move the first object to the region depending on the gesture input, and to perform authentication using the fingerprint sensor based on the finger being located on the region.

Electronic device and fingerprint authentication interface method thereof

Various embodiments of the present invention provide a method and apparatus for preventing a user's unintentional touch input in an electronic device. According to various embodiments of the present invention, an electronic device may comprise: a display for displaying a user interface; a memory; and a processor functionally connected to the display and the memory, wherein the processor is configured to set a touch blocking area in the edge area of the display, determine an exception area in the touch blocking area on the basis of the user interface, remove the determined exception area from the touch blocking area, so as to set a final touch blocking area, and process a touch event on the edge area on the basis of the final touch blocking area. Various embodiments are possible.

Electronic device and operation method therefor

Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and an apparatus for processing displaying of a display which includes a main region and a sub region in an electronic device. According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, it includes a display including a main region of a front and a sub region of at least one side extending from the main region and displaying an image based on at least part of the main region and the sub region, a memory, and a processor functionally coupled with the display and the memory, wherein the processor may be configured to sense at least part of the main region, generate imitation information for an extension screen based on the sensed region, and display the extension screen in the sub region in association with a main screen of the main region based on the imitation information. Various embodiments are possible.

Electronic device and displaying method thereof

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a rectangular display, at least one sensor, a processor electrically connected to the display and the at least one sensor, and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory stores an application program including a first layout to be displayed when the display is substantially oriented in a horizontal orientation and a second layout is played when the display is substantially oriented in a vertical orientation, and the memory stores instructions which, when executed by the processor, causes the process to perform operations including displaying a window including one of the first and second layouts on a part of the display, detecting a change in the orientation of the electronic device by using the at least one sensor, rotating the window about 90 degrees based on the detected orientation change, and continuously maintaining one of the first and second layout in the window.
