Electronic device and method for storing image corresponding to screen on basis of touch input

Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing rotatably coupled to the first housing, a third housing rotatably coupled to the second housing, a flexible display including a first displaying area positioned on the first housing, a second displaying area positioned on the second housing, and a third displaying area positioned on the third housing, a first sensor configured to detect an angle between the first housing and the second housing, a second sensor configured to detect an angle between the second housing and the third housing, memory, comprising one or more storage media, storing instructions, and one or more processors comprising processing circuitry communicatively coupled to the flexible display, the first sensor, the second sensor, and the memory, wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to, while displaying a screen on the flexible display, detect a touch input based on an external object contacted on a border area between two displaying areas among the first displaying area, the second displaying area, and the third displaying area, and in response to the touch input based on the external object being moved along a direction in which the border area extends, store, in the memory, an image corresponding to at least a portion of the screen.
