A user terminal device capable of attaching and detaching a pen is provided. The device includes a detector configured to detect a user manipulation regarding a screen, and a controller configured to change a layout of the screen to correspond to a pen use mode in response to the pen being removed from the user terminal device, perform a control operation corresponding to the detected user manipulation in response to the user manipulation using the pen being detected, and restore the layout of the screen to its original state in response to the pen being remounted on the user terminal apparatus.

User terminal device with pen and controlling method thereof

A user terminal device is provided. The user terminal device includes a display configured to display a map screen, a detector configured to sense a user manipulation, and a controller configured to, when a location and a direction are determined by the user manipulation on the map screen, display at least one photo image corresponding to the location and the direction of the user manipulation on the map screen.

User terminal device for displaying map and method thereof

A mobile device, a method for displaying a screen thereof, a wearable device, a method for driving the same, and a computer-readable recording medium are provided. The mobile device operating with a wearable device includes a display configured to display a private screen which is personalized to a user after authentication of the wearable device based on at least one of a user state and an operational state of the mobile device and a controller configured to control the display to display the private screen after the authentication.

Mobile device, method for displaying screen thereof, wearable device, method for driving the same, and computer-readable recording medium

Methods and apparatuses for transmitting data to an external device are provided. The method includes establishing a communication link with the external device by using a first application, and displaying a first window that corresponds to the first application, in response to an execution request for a second application that is different from the first application, displaying a second window that corresponds to the second application as a background of the first window, receiving a sharing mode request via the first window, and in response to the sharing mode request, setting an operation mode of the device as a sharing mode, and transmitting data that is provided from the second application to the external device via the communication link.

Method and device for transmitting data, and method and device for receiving data

Provided is a method and apparatus for controlling a user interface. The method of controlling a user interface of an electronic device includes: displaying a drawing object formed by a path input into the electronic device on a screen, and controlling the user interface by applying different functions to a drawing object area and the remaining area excluding the drawing object area in the touch screen.

Electronic device and method for controlling a touch screen of the electronic device

A user terminal device is disclosed. The user terminal device includes a display, an inputter configured to receive a user drawing manipulation, a storage configured to store an image generated by the user drawing manipulation and information of a control operation matched with at least one part of the image, and a controller configured to display a home screen composed of a plurality of display layers sequentially overlaid on the display, and display the image on at least one display layer from among the plurality of display layers. The controller may be further configured to, in response to one part of the image being selected, perform the control operation matched with the selected part. Accordingly, a user's own home screen can be displayed.

User terminal device and display method thereof

A user terminal device is provided. The device includes a display configured to display a screen including an object, a detector configured to detect a user drawing input which is input on the object or in an area surrounding the object, a controller configured to, in response to the user drawing input being detected, execute a program corresponding to the object and display, on the display, a screen where the user drawing input is processed as an input of the program. Accordingly, the operations of the user terminal device may be controlled conveniently.

User terminal device and controlling method thereof

A portable terminal device using a touch pen and a handwriting input method thereof are provided. The handwriting input method of the portable terminal device using a touch pen includes displaying an execution screen of an application on a touch screen in response to the application being executed, overlapping a handwriting input layer, which is configured for a handwriting input, with the execution screen, inputting a handwriting image on an area of the handwriting input layer using the touch pen, determining a data type for recognizing the input handwriting image in consideration of an attribute of the area corresponding to a position in which the handwriting image has been input on the execution screen, and recognizing the input handwriting image as the determined data type, and applying a recognized result of the determined data type to the application.

Portable terminal device using touch pen and handwriting input method thereof

A user terminal device includes a display which displays a screen including an object drawn by a user, a sensor which senses user manipulation, and a controller which provides animation effects regarding the objects when a preset event occurs, and performs a control operation matching the object when an object is selected by user manipulation.

User terminal device for providing animation effect and display method thereof

Method and device for controlling a user interface

A display apparatus is disclosed. The display apparatus includes a storage configured to store a plurality of images, a controller configured to select a plurality of related images having a common element from the plurality of images, and a display configured to sequentially display the plurality of related images while executing an image transition between each of the sequentially displayed related images through intermediation of the common element of the plurality of related images, whereby the related images can be provided to a user in a continuous manner.
