MOUSE FUNCTION PROVISION METHOD AND TERMINAL IMPLEMENTING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A mouse function provision method of a terminal having a display unit equipped with a touch panel, the method comprising:
- displaying a mouse operation image on a screen of the display unit in response to a mouse host application execution request;
detecting a touch gesture made with a touch input tool on the mouse operation image;
determining, when movement of the touch input tool is detected, whether a touch hold time counted from the detection of the touch gesture is greater than a first hold threshold; and
transmitting, when the touch hold time is greater than the first hold threshold, an object move command to an output terminal and, when the touch hold time is not greater than the first hold threshold, a pointer move command.

Abstract
A touch panel-equipped mobile terminal is configured to be used as a mouse according to a mouse function provision method. The mouse function provision method includes displaying a mouse operation image on a screen of the display unit in response to a mouse host application execution request; detecting a touch gesture made with a touch input tool on the mouse operation image; determining, when movement of the touch input tool is detected, whether a touch hold time counted from the detection of the touch gesture is greater than a first hold threshold; and transmitting, when the touch hold time is greater than the first hold threshold, an object move command to an output terminal and, when the touch hold time is not greater than the first hold threshold, a pointer move command.

6. A mouse function provision method of a terminal, the method comprising:
-
displaying an object and a pointer on the object; receiving first touch coordinate and second touch coordinate from a mobile terminal having a touch panel at an interval; determining whether a touch input tool has moved, based on displacement between the first and second touch coordinate; determining, when the touch input tool has moved, whether a touch hold time counted from a time when the first touch coordinate have been received is greater than a first hold threshold; and displaying, when the touch hold time is greater than the first hold threshold, the object and pointer moved at a position corresponding to the second touch coordinate and, when the touch hold time is not greater than the first hold threshold, the pointer moved at a position corresponding to the second touch coordinate. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A mobile terminal comprising:
-
a display unit having a touch panel; a communication unit configured to communicate with an output terminal displaying an object and a pointer; and a control unit configured to;
display a mouse operation image on a screen of the display unit in response to a mouse host application execution request;
detect a touch gesture made with a touch input tool on the mouse operation image;
determine, when movement of the touch input tool is detected, whether a touch hold time counted from the detection of the touch gesture is greater than a first hold threshold; and
transmit, when the touch hold time is greater than the first hold threshold, an object move command to an output terminal and, when the touch hold time is not greater than the first hold threshold, a pointer move command. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A terminal comprising:
-
a display unit configured to display an object and a pointer on the object; a communication unit configured to receive first touch coordinate and second touch coordinate from a mobile terminal at an interval; and a control unit configured to control to;
display an object and a pointer on the object;
receive first touch coordinate and second touch coordinate from a mobile terminal having a touch panel at an interval;
determine whether a touch input tool has moved, based on displacement between the first and second touch coordinate;
determine, when the touch input tool has moved, whether a touch hold time counted from a time when the first touch coordinate have been received is greater than a first hold threshold; and
display, when the touch hold time is greater than the first hold threshold, the object and the pointer moved at a position corresponding to the second touch coordinate and, when the touch hold time is not greater than the first hold threshold, the pointer moved at a position corresponding to the second touch coordinate. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
