Abstract:
1. A method of controlling display of an electronic document in a mobile terminal, the method comprising: displaying an electronic document screen showing one page among a plurality of pages of the electronic document on a display of the mobile terminal; receiving a first input for setting a number of pages to be turned among the plurality of pages via the electronic document screen, the first input causing display of a first indicator or second indicator according to a user setting comprising a first setting and a second setting; displaying the first indicator representing the number of pages to be turned at a portion of the electronic document screen according to the first setting, wherein the number of pages indicated by the first indicator increases at an accelerated speed when duration of the first touch input is equal to or greater than a threshold period of time and the user setting is set to the first setting; displaying the second indicator representing a single chapter of the electronic document at a portion of the electronic document screen according to the second setting when the user setting is set to the second setting, the single chapter indicated by the second indicator sequentially changing in order until the first input is completed; setting the number of pages according to the number of pages indicated by the first indicator or the chapter indicated by the second indicator based on the duration of the first input, the number of pages increasing as the duration increases; flipping through the set number of pages in response to a second input, the second input comprising a flicking input, wherein the set number of pages are flipped backward or forward according to a direction of the flicking input; rotating the electronic document screen on the display in response to rotation of the mobile terminal, the rotation initiated while the one page is displayed, such that a one-page layout view of the electronic document screen is changed to a two-page layout view when the electronic document screen is rotated; displaying the electronic document as an open book-like image in response to a first predefined gesture input that is received while the electronic document screen is in the two-page layout view, the open book-like image providing a graphical representation of all pages of the electronic document, a thickness of the graphical representation varying based on a total number of the pages of the electronic document; displaying a magnified view of a portion of the graphical representation corresponding to the thickness at a middle portion of the open book-like image in response to a first touch input that is received at the portion of the graphical representation corresponding to the thickness; displaying a page corresponding to a point in the graphical representation corresponding to the thickness in response to a second touch input for selecting the point that is received while the magnified view is displayed; and making the open book-like image disappear from the electronic document screen in response to a second predefined gesture input that is received while the electronic document is displayed as the open book-like image.
