Abstract:
An electronic device includes a display module. The electronic device also includes an input interface configured to be functionally connected to the electronic, to transmit an input detection signal to the electronic device by detecting an input of additional input unit formed at a side, and to transmit to the electronic device at least one of a movement signal generated by detecting a movement while an input of the additional input unit is maintained and a scroll signal generated by detecting an input of a scroll unit installed at a side. The electronic device further includes a processor configured to receive an input detection signal from the input interface, to receive at least one of the movement signal and the scroll signal while the input of the additional input unit is maintained, and to control a user interface based on the received signal.
