Accordingly, when the user opens a screen for additional manipulation on the work screen, the user can perform the desired manipulation without the extra effort of moving the screen for the additional manipulation and immediately check the screen on which the manipulation is reflected. .

According to one aspect of the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, there is provided a method for displaying a user interface, the method comprising: displaying an operation unit window including one or more setting items on a screen; When an input occurs in the first item among the one or more setting items of the operation unit window displayed on the screen, at least a part or the remaining part of the operation unit window displayed on the screen except for the first item is not displayed on the screen. characterized.

According to another aspect of the present invention to achieve the above object, there is provided a user interface display device, comprising: an input unit for receiving a user's manipulation; a display unit for displaying an execution image of an application program, an operation state, and a menu state; A manipulation unit window including one or more setting items is displayed on the display unit, and when the input occurs to a first item among the one or more setting items of the manipulation unit window displayed on the display unit according to an input through the input unit, the display unit is displayed on the display unit. and a control unit for controlling not to display at least a part or the remaining part of the operation unit window except for the first item on the display unit.

As described above, by using the method and apparatus for displaying a user interface according to the present invention, when a user opens a screen for manipulation on the screen, it is possible to minimize a portion covered by the screen for manipulation. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent additional user actions, such as a manipulation of moving the pop-up menu so as not to cover the figure below. In addition, it has the advantage of being able to immediately check the operation and the screen that is actually reflected.

4 is a flowchart of a user interface display operation according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4 , according to the present invention, when an input is generated in a part that the user actually manipulates after displaying the manipulation unit window on the screen, the part other than the part where the input is generated in the manipulation unit window disappears from the screen. In addition, when the user's input is terminated (when the focus is released to complete selection or perform another operation), the initially provided operation unit window is restored to the screen. Accordingly, the present invention simultaneously provides a window on the operation unit that the user can change and a screen on which the operation is reflected.

First, in step 201, the manipulation unit is executed through a user manipulation such as a voice command, touch, or button press, and then, in step 203, the executed manipulation unit window is displayed on the screen. In this case, the manipulation unit may be, for example, an environment setting of the portable terminal device, a notification bar, and the like, and the manipulation unit window may be configured to include one or more setting items. In this case, the setting items may be various, for example, setting the brightness of the screen, setting the font size, setting the volume, and the like. In addition, the operation unit window displayed on the screen may be displayed as a full screen or a partial screen of the portable terminal device.

Thereafter, in step 205, it is determined whether an input has occurred in the first item, which is one of the one or more setting items of the operation unit window. In this case, the input may be a button press, touch, hovering, voice input, etc. for activating the first item.

As a result of the determination in step 205, if it is determined that an input has occurred in the first item of the manipulation unit window, the process proceeds to step 207. If it is determined that no input is generated in the first item of the manipulation unit window, the operation of the present invention is terminated.

Thereafter, in step 207, the remaining portions of the control panel window except for the first item are not displayed on the screen. This is to change the screen setting so that, when an input is generated in a part actually manipulated by the user, the remaining parts other than the first item of the manipulation unit window are not displayed so that only the first item is displayed on the screen.

Thereafter, in step 209, it is determined whether or not the setting of the screen is changed according to the input generated in the first item of the operation unit window. According to the determination result of step 209, if it is determined that the screen settings have been changed according to the input generated in the first item of the control panel window, the process proceeds to step 211, and the screen settings are not changed according to the input generated in the first item of the control panel window. If it is determined that not, proceed to step 213 .

Thereafter, in step 211, the setting change is applied to the screen.

Thereafter, in step 213, it is determined whether the input of the first item is terminated. In this case, the input termination may be a case in which the setting of the first item is completed, or may be a case in which the setting of the first item is terminated by selecting an end button or a cancel button, selecting a return button, or the like. In addition, the input termination may be input termination according to the lapse of a preset time, or may be a case in which an input occurs in a portion other than the first item. If it is determined in step 213 that the input of the first item has been completed, the process proceeds to step 215. If it is determined in step 213 that the input of the first item has not been completed, the process returns to step 207 again.

Thereafter, in step 215, the remaining parts except for the first item of the operation mode window are displayed again on the screen. This restores the control panel window again.

5 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a user interface display according to a hand touch according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5 , when a touch input is applied to a scroll bar for adjusting screen brightness as shown in FIG. 5 (a) in a state where the control panel window is displayed on the home screen in full screen, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), in the control panel window other than the scroll bar Makes the part of all disappear from the screen so that only the scroll bar is displayed on the home screen. At this time, if the scroll bar point is moved through touch and/or drag, the brightness of the screen is changed and applied according to the scroll bar point position as shown in FIG. 5C . When the touch is released from the scroll bar, the control panel window is restored on the home screen again as shown in FIG. 5(d).

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the manipulation unit in the computer or notebook computer may be a setting menu including setting items such as background setting and resolution setting, or an editing menu of documents and images. Also, the input generated in the first item, which is one of the one or more setting items of the operation unit window, may be a mouse over, a mouse click, a mouse drag, and the like.

Then, according to the position of the mouse over, the image is changed to the color corresponding to the position of the mouse over. At this time, when one color is clicked with the mouse, the color is applied to the image, the theme color item is made to disappear from the screen, so that only the image is displayed on the screen.

An operation of displaying a user interface according to a mouse input according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 7 . In the state in which the control panel window overlaps the image and is displayed on the screen, when the mouse is over the 3D rotation item to apply 3D rotation to the image as shown in (a) of FIG. 7, in the control panel window as shown in FIG. 7 (b) All parts other than the 3D rotation item disappear from the screen, so that only the 3D rotation item is displayed on the image. Then, according to the position of the mouse over, the image rotates in the corresponding rotation direction of the rotation item where the mouse over is located. At this time, when one rotation item is clicked with the mouse, the image is rotated in the rotation direction of the rotation item, and the operation unit window as shown in FIG. 7 (a) is displayed again on the screen.
