MOBILE TERMINAL HAVING TOUCH SCREEN AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING CURSOR THEREOF
First Claim
1. A method for displaying a cursor of a portable terminal comprising a capacitive overlay type touch screen, the method comprising:
- detecting one of access by an object on a touch screen and contact by the object with the touch screen;
determining whether a value of change of capacitance is one of equal to a first threshold and greater than the first threshold, and is less than a second threshold;
displaying a cursor in an area where the change of the capacitance is detected, if the value of change of capacitance is one of equal to the first threshold and greater than the first threshold, and is less than the second threshold; and
performing a function corresponding to the area where the cursor is displayed, if the value of change of capacitance detected in the area where the cursor is displayed is one of equal to the second threshold and greater than the second threshold.

Abstract
A portable terminal including a touch screen and method for displaying a cursor thereof are provided. The method includes determining whether a capacitance is equal to or greater than a first critical value and is less than a second critical value, if the change of the capacitance is sensed in the touch screen, displaying a cursor in an area where the change of the capacitance is sensed, if the capacitance is equal to or greater than the first critical value and is less than the second critical value, and performing a function corresponding to the area where the cursor is displayed, if the capacitance sensed in the area where the cursor is displayed is equal to or greater than the second critical value.
