Abstract: An apparatus and a method for generating events corresponding to the touch attributes in the electronic device are provided. The apparatus, including an electronic device, may include a touch sensor and a processor. The processor is configured to control for determining at least one touch attribute including at least one of an intensity, an area, and a direction of a touch input based on a change in the capacitance in the touch sensor due to the touch input on the touch sensor, and executing a function corresponding to a predetermined criterion if the at least one touch attribute satisfies the predetermined criterion.

Abstract: An electronic device according to various examples comprises: a touch screen display including a touch panel; a processor electrically connected to the display; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory can be set to store instructions that, when executed, enable the processor to: receive, from the touch panel, data related to contact or proximity of an external object to the touch screen display; determine an area detected by the touch panel through the contact or the proximity on the basis of at least a part of the data; determine at least a part of the area having a relatively stronger signal strength in the area; determine at least another part of the area having a relatively weaker signal strength in the area; and display an image or a change in an image on the display on the basis of positions and/or sizes of the determined areas.
