Display screen or portion thereof with transitional graphical user interface

An electronic device includes a hinge configured to foldably connect a first housing to a second housing; a display including a first display area disposed on the first housing, and a second display area and a third display area arranged on the second housing; and at least one processor configured to: in a first state in which the hinge is unfolded, display a first application in the first display area and the second display area, and display, in the third display area, at least one default button, in a second state in which the hinge is folded, control the display to display a panel button, in the third display area, and based on a selection of the panel button in the second state, display the first application in the first display area, and display, in the second display area, a first panel including at least one control button and at least one system button.

Electronic device and method for providing panel for control of application in electronic device

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display configured to display a screen on at least a portion of a display region, a sensor configured to detect an expansion or reduction of the display region, and a processor operatively connected to the display. The processor is configured to receive user input related to the screen displayed on the at least the portion of the display region, identify an expansion of the display region through the sensor, and display an input user interface (UI), including a UI component determined on the basis of the user input, on at least a portion of the expanded display region in response to the reception of the user input and the identification of the expansion of the display region.

Electronic device providing user interface, and method therefor

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise a display and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to control the display to display a plurality of contents related to an application in a first area of the display, and a plurality of objects for performing a plurality of functions related to the application in a second area of the display, select a first content from among the plurality of contents based on a first input on the display, identify at least one function corresponding to the first content among the plurality of functions, based on identifying a second input to the first content on the display, and control the display to display at least one object corresponding to the at least one function among the plurality of objects in the second area, to be visually distinguished.

Electronic device displaying user interface and method for operating the same

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes at least one housing which may have a plurality of states, at least one display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is set to display a first execution screen of at least one application on a first display area of the at least one display when the at least one housing is in a first state, wherein the first display area corresponds to the first state, identify the transition of the at least one housing from the first state to a second state, display a first screen, which includes at least one graphic object, on the second display area when a first condition is satisfied, wherein the first screen is displayed on the basis of the transition of the at least one housing from the first state to the second state, and display a second execution screen of a first application on at least a portion of the second display region in response to a first input to a first graphic object, corresponding to the first application, among the one or more graphic objects.

Electronic apparatus for providing execution screen of application, and operation method thereof

An electronic device may include: a foldable housing including at least one hinge structure; a flexible display module of which at least a partial area is exposed through the foldable housing; and at least one processor provided inside the foldable housing. The display module may include: a plurality of areas; and at least one foldable area which is disposed between at least the plurality of areas so as to correspond to the at least one hinge structure and can be folded according to the state of the at least one hinge structure. The at least one processor may be configured to: when the state of the at least one hinge structure is a first state, display a first execution screen of a first application on the display module, wherein in the first state, a first foldable area of the at least one foldable area is in a folded state; while the first foldable area of the at least one foldable area is in the folded state, detect a touch and drag input into the first foldable area from an object included in the first execution screen; and after detecting the touch and drag input, on the basis of the state of the at least one hinge structure changing from the first state to a second state, display, on the display module, a second execution screen of a second application which is obtained by using at least a part of the object and is different from the first application.

Electronic device comprising flexible display module and method for operating same

Electronic device with transitional graphical user interface

Display screen or portion thereof with graphical user interface

An electronic device may comprise a flexible display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to control the display to: display an execution screen of a first application in a first area of the display in a first position state, expand the display to include the first area and a second area, in response to a switch from the first position state to a second position state, display, in the second area, at least one object representing an executable application based on application attribute information, based on the display being expanded, and display, on the expanded display, the execution screen of the first application together with an execution screen of an application corresponding to the selected object, in response to selection of any one of the at least one object.

Electronic device for providing execution screen of application, method for operating the same, and storage medium

An electronic device includes a first housing including a first face, and a second face opposite the first face; a second housing including a third face, and a fourth face opposite the third face; a hinge connecting the first housing and the second house, wherein the second housing folds about the hinge to face the first housing; a flexible display extending from the first face to the third face; a sensor circuit configured to sense an angle formed by the first housing and the second housing folding at the hinge; and a processor operatively connected to the flexible display and the sensor circuit. The processor is configured to detect a physical state of the first housing and the second housing based on the sensor circuit, and re-execute a currently executed application, when the detected physical state changes.
