METHOD FOR OPERATION OF PEN FUNCTION AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A pen function method comprising:
- collecting information, by a control unit, comprising;
pen status information including at least one of;
information regarding an arrangement state between a pen recognition panel of a terminal that recognizes proximity of a touch pen according to a particular set mode of one or more of set modes, and recognizes the touch pen and a state information on whether a actuator of the touch pen activated, type information on a currently activated application program, and a gesture recognition information according to a gesture input operation of the touch pen, or collecting the pen status information and the gesture recognition information;
identifying a pen function command corresponding to the collected information by accessing associated information in storage according to the particular set mode; and
performing a function corresponding to the identified pen function command.

Abstract
An apparatus and method for operation of a pen function in an electronic device. A pen recognition panel recognizes a touch pen according to a set mode. A control unit collects pen status information including at least one of information on an arrangement state between a pen recognition panel and a touch pen and a state information on whether a button of the touch pen is pushed, type information on a currently activated application program, and a gesture recognition information according to a gesture input operation of the touch pen, or collects the pen status information and the gesture recognition information. A storage unit stores a pen function table providing a pen function command corresponding to collected information according to the set mode, and a display panel displays information according to performing of a function corresponding to the pen function command.
