Abstract
A method and apparatus for transmitting/receiving multimedia data in the form of divided data segments. The data transmission method of the present disclosure includes detecting a multimedia data transmission request, segmenting multimedia data into data segments according to a predetermined condition in response to the multimedia data transmission request, and transmitting the data segments selectively or as a whole. By detecting of a gesture on or above a preview image, a plurality of segments can be displayed. In the case of hovering (proximity input) as the detected signal strength changes quantity with a distance of the proximity input, the quantity of preview images displayed may increase or decrease. In an embodiment, the gesture to view more segments may be a pinch-to-zoom gesture. The electronic device is constructed for operation of the methods disclosed herein.
