Abstract: In a time data display mode, a time data is displayed in at least one display block partially assigned to a touch screen of an electronic device. After the touch gesture or the drag gesture is detected in one of the display block, the current time data in the display block can be replaced with a new time data according to the touch gesture or the drag gesture. The new time data may be a following time data or a previous time data which can be determined according to a location of the touch gesture, or a direction and a distance of the drag gesture. In addition, the extent of a change in the time data may be determined according to duration of the touch gesture or a speed of the drag gesture.

Abstract: Provided is a method of controlling display of an item. In the method, a plurality of individual items is displayed. A touch input is detected from at least two of the displayed individual items. An outline of a folder item to be generated is displayed around a plurality of the at least two touched individual items. Upon receiving a touch release input, the folder item is generated and displayed within the outline to arrange the individual items that receive touch inputs therein.

Abstract: A mobile terminal and a method of displaying a menu thereof are provided. The method includes displaying a list of upper-level menus in an order on a display screen, displaying a first upper-level menu at an upper end of the display panel, a second upper-level menu that is next to the first upper-level menu in the order at a lower end of the display screen, and lower-level menus of the first upper-level menu in a list between the first upper-level menu and the second upper-level menu in response to selection of the first upper-level menu from the list of upper-level menus, and executing a selected lower-level menu in response to selection of one of the lower-level menus.

Abstract: An electronic device and a method arrange icons on a screen of the electronic device. In the method, when a user selects an icon displayed on a screen, the device determines whether there is a sub-icon associated with the selected icon. If there is a sub-icon, the device arranges and displays the sub-icon in a radial arrangement on the screen around the selected icon, so the user can visually perceive the relation between the selected icon and its sub-icon, and easily select and use a desired function or data associated with the sub-icon.

Abstract: A mobile terminal and a method for controlling a screen thereof are provided. A plurality of tasks is classified in categories such as an event log and a timeline. The screen is divided into a main screen area in which a main screen image such as a home screen is displayed, and a sub screen area in which a task list associated with one of the categories is displayed. The task list displayed on the sub screen area is substituted with a task list of another category when a change command occurs, while the main screen image can be maintained unchanged. The sub screen area can be enlarged and additional tasks of the same category displayed upon sensing a sub screen enlargement command.
