Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a touch screen configured to receive a touch input, and a controller configured to select a graphic image based on environmental information and provide the graphic image to a first layer, display the first layer on the touch screen, display a second layer that includes a user interface along with the first layer, display a third layer that includes a graphic object corresponding to the user interface along with the second layer, and change the graphic image of the first layer based on the touch input to the user interface of the second layer.
Claims22
An electronic device comprising:
- a touch screen configured to receive a touch input;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- select a graphic image based on environmental information and provide the graphic image to a first layer,
- display the first layer on the touch screen,
- display a second layer that includes a user interface along with the first layer,
- display a third layer that includes a graphic object corresponding to the user interface along with the second layer, and
- change the graphic image of the first layer based on the touch input to the user interface of the second layer.
An electronic device comprising:
- a touch screen configured to receive a dragging input;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- select a graphic image based on environmental information,
- display a list on the touch screen,
- detect the dragging input in a state in which the list is displayed, to scroll the list according to the dragging input, and
- overlap and display the graphic image on the list while the list is being scrolled.
A method of displaying on a screen of an electronic device that includes a touch screen, the method comprising:
- selecting a graphic image based on environmental information and providing the graphic image to a first layer;
- displaying the first layer on the touch screen;
- displaying a second layer that includes a user interface along with the first layer;
- displaying a third layer that includes a graphic object corresponding to the user interface along with the second layer;
- and
- changing and displaying the graphic image of the first layer, based on a touch input to the user interface provided on the second layer.
