Portable terminal capable of controlling display brightness and method for controlling display brightness thereof
First Claim
1. A portable terminal, comprising:
- a touch screen display; and
a processor configured to;
control the touch screen display to display a brightness selection interface for selecting one of a plurality of brightness steps, wherein the plurality of brightness steps are from a lowest brightness step to a highest brightness step,receive, via the touch screen display, a first user input for selecting a first brightness step of the plurality of brightness steps, at a first position of the brightness selection interface,control the touch screen display to display an indicator at the first position at which the first user input is received and control a brightness of the touch screen display based on the first brightness step corresponding to the first position,receive, via the touch screen display, a second user input for selecting a second brightness step of the plurality of brightness steps, at a second position of the brightness selection interface, andcontrol the touch screen display to change a position of the indicator from the first position to the second position at which the second user input is received without displaying the indicator at any intermediate position between the first position and the second position and change the brightness of the touch screen display based on the second brightness step corresponding to the second position.
