1. A display method of a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
- displaying at least one perceived 3-dimensional (3D) object on a display;
selecting a specific 3D object from the display by one of a long touch, a double touch, or a 3D hot key &
touch;
in response to the selecting of the specific 3D object by one of the long touch, the double touch, or the 3D hot key &
touch, displaying, on the display, a 3D manipulation portion having a predetermined shape along the selected 3D object'"'"'s edge;
detecting a touch input within the displayed 3D manipulation portion; and
adjusting a rotation and a depth of the 3D object based on a touch location and a touch type of the touch input with respect to the displayed 3D manipulation portion, wherein adjusting the rotation and the depth of the 3D object includes enlarging or reducing a size of the 3D object based on the touch type of the touch input and adjusting the depth of the 3D object based on a ratio of enlargement/reduction when the touch location of the touch input with respect to the displayed 3D manipulation portion is an outer region of the displayed 3D manipulation portion, andwherein the shape of the displayed 3D manipulation portion is same as a shape of the selected 3D object.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal and a 3D object control method thereof for controlling the depth or rotation of a 3D object using a 3D manipulation portion displayed around the 3D object. According to the present invention, a circular- or ring-shaped 3D manipulation portion may be touched to intuitively control the rotation and enlargement/reduction of the 3D object, thereby providing usefulness and convenience for the user, capable of editing the 3D object while directly viewing the transformed form and depth of the 3D object.

20. A method comprising:
-
displaying a perceived 3-dimensional (3D) object on a display of a mobile terminal; receiving an object input, by one of a long touch, a double touch or a 3D hot key &
touch, to select at least one perceived 3D object displayed on the display;in response to receiving the object input by one of the long touch, the double touch, or the 3D hot key &
touch, displaying, on the display, an editing indicator along the selected 3D object'"'"'s edge, wherein the editing indicator is displayed while the 3D object is displayed on the display;detecting a touch input with respect to the displayed editing indicator; and changing an orientation and a depth of the displayed 3D object based on a location and a type of the detected touch input with respect to the displayed editing indicator, wherein changing the orientation and the depth of the displayed 3D object includes enlarging or reducing a size of the 3D object based on the touch type of the touch input and adjusting the depth of the 3D object based on a ratio of enlargement/reduction when the location of the touch input with respect to the displayed editing indicator is an outer region of the displayed editing indicator. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)
