A user interface (UI) display method is provided. The UI display method includes displaying an operation window including one or more setting items on a screen, and if a first one of the setting items is inputted, causing at least a part or all of the remaining operation window part except for the first item not to be displayed on the screen.

User interface display method and apparatus therefor

A method of controlling, by using a mobile terminal, at least one Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device is provided. The method includes searching for at least one BLE device, displaying a BLE device list, including the at least one searched for BLE device, on a display unit of the mobile terminal, receiving an input of selection of a BLE device from the BLE device list, receiving an input of user added information from a user regarding the selected BLE device, and mapping and storing property information and the user added information regarding the selected BLE device.

Method and mobile terminal for controlling Bluetooth low energy device

A device and a method for authenticating using biometric information in an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor detects an execution of an application which provides an authentication service based on biometric information, changes at least one biometric information recognition related variable, in response to detecting the execution of the application, and controls to display an application execution screen including at least one authentication guide image corresponding to the at least one biometric information recognition related variable. Other embodiments may also be possible.

Electronic device for authenticating using biometric information and method of operating electronic device

Method and mobile terminal for controlling bluetooth low energy device

A method in an electronic device is provided. The method includes detecting a number of input tools on a touch screen, switching into one input mode among at least two set input modes according to the number of the detected input tools, and receiving a set content or changing a layout of a displayed content according to a touch-inputted input tool among the detected input tools, a relative length change, and a movement direction of the touch-inputted input tool.

Method for changing an input mode in an electronic device

An electronic device and a method thereof are provided. The electronic device is configured to display a first window including a first set of at least one icon on a background screen, and detect a first movement request in a first direction move, according to the first movement request, the first window in the first direction in the background screen and add and display a second window including a second set of at least one icon on the background screen.

Electronic device and operation method thereof

An electronic device comprising: a touch screen display; and at least one processor operatively coupled to the touch screen display, configured to: detect an input on the touch screen display; identify an input range based on a location of the input; detect a first path associated with additional input that is performed at least partially in the input range and display an indication of the first path on the touch screen display; compare the first path to a second path; and perform a function in response to detecting that the first path matches the second path.

Apparatus and method for controlling security of electronic device

A method configured to process an indirect touch or direct touch input to a touch screen with various input means is provided. The method includes, if a 1st input means is positioned in a 1st position spaced apart from a touch screen, acquiring 1st sensing information based on the 1st position, if the 1st input means is positioned in a 2nd position spaced apart from the touch screen, acquiring 2nd sensing information based on the 2nd position, and identifying the 1st input means based on the acquired 1st sensing information and the acquired 2nd sensing information.

Method for processing input and electronic device thereof

A method for controlling a display device that displays a frame buffer on a plurality of screens is provided. The method includes receiving a multi-screen mode execution command to display a single frame buffer on a plurality of screens, acquiring the frame buffer, splitting the frame buffer into a plurality of frame buffers to correspond to the plurality of screens, setting an offset for each of the plurality of split frame buffers, and displaying each of the plurality of split frame buffers on an associated one of the plurality of screens based on the set offset.

Display device for displaying multiple screens and method for controlling the same

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device is configured to check whether an event is generated during a first period in a state in which a screen is displayed, change a chroma of the screen when the event is not generated during the first period, check whether the event is generated during a second period, and adjust a lighting brightness of the screen when the event is not generated during the second period.

Method and apparatus for controlling screen

A multiple display method to be performed by two or more communication terminals to expand visibility is provided. A first communication terminal establishes a wireless connection with a second communication terminal, receives device information of the second communication terminal, generates first screen data based on the device information for configuring a first screen of the first communication terminal and second screen data for configuring a second screen of the second communication terminal in association with the first screen. The second screen data is transmitted to the second communication terminal.

Multiple display method with multiple communication terminals, machine-readable storage medium and communication terminal

A fingerprint recognition method and apparatus are provided for quickly and accurately authenticating a user using a direction of a fingerprint. The fingerprint recognition method includes sensing a fingerprint input from a user; creating fingerprint data including a direction angle of the fingerprint input; and authenticating the user based on the fingerprint data.
