1. A method to control a screen of an electronic device, the method comprising:
- checking whether an event is generated during a first period in a state in which a screen is displayed;
changing a chroma of the screen when the event is not generated during the first period;
checking whether the event is generated during a second period;
adjusting a lighting brightness of the screen when the event is not generated during the second period;
checking whether the event is generated during a third period; and
restoring the lighting brightness of the screen to a lighting brightness that is not changed and restoring the chroma of the screen to a chroma that is not changed, when the event is generated during the third period,wherein, when the event is a key input, the chroma of the screen is restored to the chroma that is not changed from an area adjacent to a position where a key is installed to a remaining area except for the area adjacent to the position.

1. A method to control a screen of an electronic device, the method comprising:
-
checking whether an event is generated during a first period in a state in which a screen is displayed; changing a chroma of the screen when the event is not generated during the first period; checking whether the event is generated during a second period; adjusting a lighting brightness of the screen when the event is not generated during the second period; checking whether the event is generated during a third period; and restoring the lighting brightness of the screen to a lighting brightness that is not changed and restoring the chroma of the screen to a chroma that is not changed, when the event is generated during the third period, wherein, when the event is a key input, the chroma of the screen is restored to the chroma that is not changed from an area adjacent to a position where a key is installed to a remaining area except for the area adjacent to the position. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5)

6. A method to control a screen of an electronic device, the method comprising:
-
checking whether an event is generated during a first period in a state in which a screen is displayed; changing a chroma of the screen when the event is not generated during the first period; checking whether the event is generated during a second period; adjusting a lighting brightness of the screen when the event is not generated during the second period; checking whether the event is generated during a third period; and restoring the lighting brightness of the screen to a lighting brightness that is not changed and restoring the chroma of the screen to a chroma that is not changed, when the event is generated during the third period, wherein, when the event is a grip for the electronic device, the chroma of the screen is restored to the chroma that is not changed from an area corresponding to a point where the grip is generated to a remaining area except for the area corresponding to the point.

7. An electronic device comprising:
-
a display; and a screen control module configured to; check whether an event is generated during a first period in a state in which a screen is displayed on the display, change a chroma of the screen when the event is not generated during the first period, check whether the event is generated during a second period, adjust a lighting brightness of the screen when the event is not generated during the second period, check whether the event is generated during a third period, and restore the lighting brightness of the screen to a lighting brightness that is not changed and restoring the chroma of the screen to a chroma that is not changed when the event is generated during the third period, wherein, when the event is a key input, the screen control module is configured to restore the chroma of the screen to the chroma that is not changed from an area adjacent to a position where a key is installed in the electronic device to a remaining area except for the area adjacent to the position. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. An electronic device comprising:
-
a display; and a screen control module configured to; check whether an event is generated during a first period in a state in which a screen is displayed on the display, change a chroma of the screen when the event is not generated during the first period, check whether the event is generated during a second period, adjust a lighting brightness of the screen when the event is not generated during the second period, check whether the event is generated during a third period, and restore the lighting brightness of the screen to a lighting brightness that is not changed and restoring the chroma of the screen to a chroma that is not changed when the event is generated during the third period, wherein, when the event is a grip for the electronic device, the screen control module is configured to restore the chroma of the screen to the chroma that is not changed from an area corresponding to a point where the grip is generated to a remaining area except for the area corresponding to the point.
