Electronic apparatus and method for controlling the same

A method for controlling an electronic apparatus, the method comprising:

• detecting touch operations at a plurality of positions on a touch panel;
• detecting a proximity of an object to a predetermined position;
• regarding each of the detected plurality of touch operations, setting a touch operation whose movement amount satisfies a predetermined condition as a valid operation and set a touch operation whose movement amount does not satisfy the predetermined condition as an invalid operation, when the proximity of the object is detected;
• performing processing according to the touch operation set as the valid operation by the setting, and not performing processing according to the touch operation set as the invalid operation by the setting,
• wherein, in a case where the setting determines that one of the plurality of touch operations has been set as the valid operation, the setting sets each of the touch operations except for the one set as the valid operation as the invalid operation, regardless of whether the predetermined condition is satisfied or not, when the proximity of the object is detected.

A computer-readable non-transitory storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method comprising:

• detecting touch operations at a plurality of positions on a touch panel;
• detecting a proximity of an object to a predetermined position;
• regarding each of the detected plurality of touch operations, setting a touch operation whose movement amount satisfies a predetermined condition as a valid operation and set a touch operation whose movement amount does not satisfy the predetermined condition as an invalid operation, when the proximity of the object is detected;
• and
• performing processing according to the touch operation set as the valid operation by the setting, and not performing processing according to the touch operation set as the invalid operation by the setting,
• wherein, in a case where the setting determines that one of the plurality of touch operations has been set as the valid operation, the setting sets each of the touch operations except for the one set as the valid operation as the invalid operation, regardless of whether the predetermined condition is satisfied or not, when the proximity of the object is detected.
