Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof

A mobile terminal and a method of controlling the operation of the mobile terminal are provided. The method includes displaying a first image on a touch screen; and if a multi-touch input is detected from the first image and then a drag input for dragging the first image is detected, displaying the first image as being torn from one side of the touch screen and storing the first image. Therefore, it is possible to easily store an image displayed on the touch screen in response to a multi-touch input and thus to effectively use the image for various purposes.

Mobile terminal and method of controlling operation of the mobile terminal

A method of controlling a mobile terminal is provided. The method includes displaying a first screen image, receiving weather information, providing a semi-transparent filter effect corresponding to the weather information, and overlaying the semi-transparent filter effect onto the first screen image to create a second composite image, and displaying the second composite image. A mobile terminal is also provided, which includes a display module configured to display a first screen image as an idle screen background, a wireless communication unit configured to receive weather information through a communication network, and a controller configured to overlay a semi-transparent filter effect corresponding to the received weather information onto the first screen image to create a second composite image, and then to display the second composite image.

Mobile terminal capable of providing weather information and method of controlling the mobile terminal

A mobile terminal and display controlling method thereof are disclosed. The present invention includes detecting whether the position of the keypad is shifted to cover a partial display region of the display unit, if it is detected that the position of the keypad is shifted, changing a normal display mode into a control display mode, and if the control display mode is entered, performing a display operation corresponding to the control display mode in a different display region except the partial display region. Accordingly, in case that a keypad is located to cover a display region of a display unit in part, the present invention enables a display function to be effectively performed in the rest of the display region except the partially covered display region.
