Abstract:
Electronic devices and methods for controlling a display are provided. The method includes extracting at least one function applicable to at least two applications displayed on a display, displaying the extracted at least one function as an icon, and applying a function corresponding to the displayed icon to at least one application of the at least two applications, corresponding to selection of the displayed icon.
Abstract:
A method includes detecting whether a cover covers the at least one portion of the display, receiving a call signal, displaying an information related to the reception of the call signal on the at least one portion of the display in response to the reception of the telephone call reception signal, detecting an external object that is adjacent to a surface of the display, and connecting a call in response to the detection of the adjacency of the external object. An electronic device includes a controller configured to cause the display to display receiving a call through the window in response to receiving the call while the cover is detected to cover the display, and control the call to be connected in response to detecting an external object that is adjacent to a surface of the display.
Abstract:
An electronic device for executing a plurality of applications and a method for controlling the electronic device are provided. The method includes determining a first application related to an acquired user input from among the plurality of applications, and executing a task corresponding to the user input in the first application.

Abstract:
An electronic device and a method for controlling a display are provided. The method includes sensing, via the electronic device, a rotation of the electronic device, identifying, by the electronic device, at least one layer having direction information that is different from a direction of the sensed rotation among a plurality of layers included in an application, changing, via the electronic device, a direction of the identified at least one layer to a direction corresponding to the sensed rotation, and displaying, via the electronic device, the application including the changed at least one layer.
