Abstract
An apparatus includes a touch sensing unit configured to receive a first-type touch input in a first mode, the first-type touch input being not processed in a second mode dedicated for a second-type touch input, and a controller configured to determine whether the first mode is operated, and to process an operation in the first mode according to the first-type touch input. A method for processing a plurality of touch input types includes receiving a touch input, determining a type of the touch input from a plurality of touch input types including a first-type touch input and a second-type touch input, and, in response to a determination that the touch input corresponds to the first-type touch input, processing the touch input if the touch input corresponds to a defined input pattern or the touch input is received in a first mode for processing the first-type touch input.
