Claim 9:
10. A method of controlling a display of an electronic device comprising a first housing, a second housing, a hinge structure comprising a hinge configured to rotatably connect the first housing and the second housing, and a sensing circuit configured to sense at least one of a folding operation between the first housing and the second housing and a physical movement of the electronic device, the method comprising:
displaying a first execution screen according to execution of a first application on a first display area of the display;
monitoring whether an event related to a second application occurs while the first execution screen is being displayed on the first display area; and
based on a physical movement sensed through the sensing circuit based on occurrence of the event corresponding to a first rotational direction of the electronic device, displaying a second execution screen according to the execution of the second application related to the event on a second display area of the display while the first application is being executed; and
based on the physical movement sensed through the sensing circuit based on occurrence of the event corresponding to a second rotational direction different from the first rotational direction, displaying a third execution screen according to execution of a third application related to the event on the second display area while the first application is being executed,
the third application being different from the second application, and, the second execution screen and the third execution screen comprising information related to the event.
