  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18146722 Titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE, METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR DISPLAYING VISUAL OBJECT FOR CHANGING SIZE OF DISPLAY REGION OF FLEXIBLE DISPLAY'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes an electronic device that has a flexible display that can be slid into or out of the device's housing. The device also includes an actuator that can retract or extend the display. It has a memory and a processor that can display a visual object to guide the user in changing the display region to a specific reference state. This is done when the processor identifies that the current state of the display region is different from the desired reference state.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing, a flexible display configured to slide into or out of the housing, an actuator configured to pull in at least a portion of the flexible display into the housing or pull out at least a portion of the flexible display from the housing, a memory, and a processor. The processor is configured to display a visual object for guiding to change a state of a display region to a reference state, based on identifying that the state of the display region is distinguished from the reference state.
