ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND SCREENSHOT OPERATION METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17957777 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND SCREENSHOT OPERATION METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
Abstract
The abstract describes a method for capturing screenshots or screen captures on an electronic device. The method includes capturing the screen displayed on a device's display, determining if there is additional information on the screen, extracting the additional information if it exists, checking if a command to modify the captured screen has been received, modifying the captured screen based on user input if the command is received, and storing the extracted additional information and/or the captured screen as a captured image. This method allows users to capture specific screens they desire.

Original Abstract Submitted
A screenshot or screen capture operation method for an electronic device includes: capturing a screen displayed on a display; determining whether additional information exists on the displayed screen; when the additional information exists, extracting the additional information, based on the displayed screen; determining whether a command for modifying the captured screen has been received; when the command for modifying the captured screen is determined as having been received, modifying the captured screen according to a user input; and storing the extracted additional information and/or the captured screen as a captured image. The resulting method enables a user to capture a screen intended or desired by the user.
