    Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling content using a graphical object in a mobile terminal are provided, in which the user may create a graphical object on the screen through touch input and easily apply various actions such as copy, delete, move, transfer, attribute change and compress to content items by means of the created graphical object. The content control method includes: detecting a preset touch input; creating a graphical object at a region where the touch input is detected; determining a mode of the created graphical object; linking at least one content item on the screen with the graphical object; and controlling the content item linked therewith depending on the mode of the graphical object. Hence, the user can control a mobile terminal through touch inputs in a more convenient and intuitive manner, increasing user convenience.

    Abstract: Example methods and terminals for sharing content are described. In one example method, an application is activated, upon detection of an event for executing the application, on a terminal, and an application screen having at least one content is displayed. Upon detecting a touch input for selecting, at least one content is selected. Upon detecting a touch input on a transmission button on the application screen, the selected content is transmitted to an external terminal. In another example method, an application screen having at least one icon for executing function is displayed; a touch input for selecting an icon associated with content to be received from an external terminal is detected; at least one identifier broadcast by the external terminal is displayed; and content is received from the external terminal corresponding to the selected identifier, upon detection of a touch input for selecting at least one identifier.
