## Abstract

A method of controlling a mobile apparatus to display an end effect is provided. The method includes displaying at least one object on a first layer on a touch screen, converting the at least one object in response to a first gesture that converts the at least one object, detecting that the conversion for the at least one object is ended, and displaying an end effect, which represents a message saying that the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore or represents additional information, on the touch screen.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method of controlling a mobile apparatus to display an end effect, the method comprising:
displaying at least one object on a first layer on a touch screen;
converting the at least one object in response to a first gesture that converts the at least one object;
detecting that the conversion for the at least one object is ended; and
displaying an end effect, which represents a message saying that the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore or represents additional information, on the touch screen.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the end effect is displayed on a second layer on the touch screen.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The method of claim 2, wherein the second layer is a translucent window or an opaque window.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising:
removing the end effect from the touch screen;
detecting a second gesture that converts the at least one object; and
displaying the end effect on the touch screen.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one object is formed as a web page, contact information, an image, a text, a video, an audio, an icon, an item, a tab, or a combination thereof.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the conversion is any one of a scroll, a magnification and a reduction.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the end effect is displayed in a region where the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the end effect is displayed in a box type in a region where the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the additional information comprises at least one of information associated with a currently executed application, information associated with a current status of the mobile apparatus, and contents for memorization.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the end effect is displayed in response to a case where the detected length of the gesture is longer than a preset length.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the end effect is a conversion effect.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The method of claim 11, wherein the conversion effect imposes an oscillating effect or a distortion effect on the message or the additional information.

### Claim 13

A mobile apparatus that displays an end effect, the mobile apparatus comprising:
a touch screen configured to display at least one object on a first layer; and
a controller configured to convert the at least one object in response to a first gesture that converts the at least one object, to detect that the conversion for the at least one object is ended, and to display an end effect which represents a message saying that the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore or represents additional information, on the touch screen.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the end effect is displayed on a second layer on the touch screen.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The mobile apparatus of claim 14, wherein the second layer is a translucent window or an opaque window.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the controller is configured to remove the end effect from the touch screen, to detect a second gesture that converts the at least one object, and to display the end effect on the touch screen.

### Claim 17 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the at least one object is formed as a web page, contact information, an image, a text, a video, an audio, an icon, an item, a tab, or a combination thereof.

### Claim 18 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the conversion is any one of a scroll, a magnification and a reduction.

### Claim 19 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the end effect is displayed in a region where the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore.

### Claim 20 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the end effect is displayed in a box type in a region where the at least one object to be converted does not exist anymore.

### Claim 21 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the additional information comprises at least one of information associated with a currently executed application, information associated with a current status of the mobile apparatus, and contents for memorization.

### Claim 22 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the end effect is displayed in response to a case where the detected length of the gesture is longer than a preset length.

### Claim 23 (depends on 13)

The mobile apparatus of claim 13, wherein the end effect is a conversion effect.

### Claim 24 (depends on 23)

The mobile apparatus of claim 23, wherein the conversion effect imposes an oscillating effect or a distortion effect on the message or the additional information.
