1. A method for temporarily manipulating an operation of an object in accordance with a touch pressure or a touch area, the method comprising:
- displaying an image on a touch screen;
receiving a touch that is input to the touch screen;
displaying a magnifier on the image when receiving the touch;
detecting at least one of a magnitude of the touch pressure and a size of the touch area;
displaying an object in the magnifier proximate to the touch that is zoomed in;
adjusting an extent to which a portion of the object is zoomed in based on at least one of the magnitude of the touch pressure and the size of the touch area; and
setting an offset between a center of the magnifier and the touch position at a constant value when the object in the magnifier proximate to the touch is zoomed in and size of the magnifier is maintained constant;
wherein the offset between the center of the magnifier and the touch position is set as a value of a radius of the magnifier;
wherein the magnifier is displayed at a position on the touch screen with the offset between the center of the magnifier and the touch position in a predetermined fixed direction regardless of a rotation of the touch screen.

Abstract
A method for temporarily manipulating an operation of an object in accordance with a touch pressure or a touch area may be provided. The method includes: operating the object at a first state; detecting at least one of a magnitude of the touch pressure and a size of the touch area when the touch is input to a touch panel; operating the object at a second state of a first operation according to at least one of the magnitude of the touch pressure and the size of the touch area; and operating the object at the first state when the touch is released.

3. A terminal comprising:
-
a touch screen configured to display an image; a processor configured to; receive a touch that is input to the touch screen; display a magnifier on the image when receiving the touch; detect at least one of a magnitude of the touch pressure and a size of the touch area; display an object in the magnifier proximate to the touch that is zoomed in; adjust an extent to which a portion of the object is zoomed in based on at least one of the magnitude of the touch pressure and the size of the touch area; and set an offset between a center of the magnifier and the touch position at a constant value when the object in the magnifier proximate to the touch is zoomed in and size of the magnifier is maintained constant; wherein the offset between the center of the magnifier and the touch position is set as a value of radius of the magnifier; wherein the magnifier is displayed at a position on the touch screen with the offset between the center of the magnifier and the touch position in a predetermined fixed direction regardless of a rotation of the touch screen.
