The display unit 140 to which the specific phonebook UI1 of the present invention is applied can easily and quickly find the persons included in a specific group by displaying various information included in each phonebook information by group.

3 to 5 are views showing an example of a phonebook UI2 according to another embodiment of the present invention. Prior to the description, it is assumed that the phonebook UI2 according to another embodiment of the present invention is applied before selecting a phonebook item in the menu. The phonebook UI1 of FIG. 2 and the phonebook UI2 of FIG. 3 can be supported so that they can be selected from menu items, respectively. In the following description, each item displayed in the phonebook UI2 will be described as "node" for ease of explanation. In the following description, it will be assumed that the names described in the respective nodes are centered on the relationship of the number of teeth, etc., but the names or nicknames of the persons can be input to each node. It will be described that one node is described in each node. However, a plurality of nodes may be described in one node according to necessity and design.

Referring to FIG. 3, a phonebook UI2 according to another embodiment of the present invention can be displayed by selecting an item for a phonebook in a menu tree. Referring to the drawings, the display unit 140 displays on the upper center portion that the currently displayed screen indicates the contents of the "phonebook" in the menu, and the names of the groups included in the phonebook, "," Army ", and the like are assigned and displayed. Here, the controller 160 of the present invention may control to display a screen listing function items for selecting various phonebooks to support various information of the phonebook.

Here, when "group search" is selected, the control unit 160 can control to display a screen including names of the above-mentioned groups.

In the case where the input signal of the input unit 120 corresponds to the user input in the above FIG. 3 and the input signal of the input unit 120 is "family ", the controller 160, Are displayed on the basis of the node tree, that is, the organization lineage. In more detail, the control unit 160 configures the entire telephone number or name belonging to the "family" To display this organizational lineage, the memory 150 needs to store in advance the information input as shown in the organization lineage. In other words, when storing the phone book information, that is, the specific phone number and the name, in the phone book, the control unit 160 displays the organization lineage that can describe the specific contents including the phone number and the name, Supports the entry of items corresponding to the items. The organizational genealogy thus created is divided into levels and displays phonebook information.

To describe this in more detail, the control unit 160 displays, on the basis of "I ", a person having the same degree or the same rank as a person in the same hierarchical level. That is, the control unit 160 divides the hierarchy in the node tree structure and displays the hierarchy in a stepwise manner. Accordingly, "I", "my brother" and "my brother" are judged to have the same hierarchical characteristics such as the same surname, rank, class, grade, and sequence, and are arranged in the same layer, for example, in the second layer. "Daughter" and "Son" are arranged in a lower hierarchy on the basis of "I", and are arranged in a lower hierarchy than the hierarchy in which the "I" is located, for example, a hierarchy. In the same way, "Mother", "Father", "Uncle", "Little Father", etc. may be arranged in a higher layer, for example, three layers, based on "I" have. And "grandfather" may be arranged in a higher hierarchy than the hierarchy in which the "mother" or "father " In this way, the user of the portable terminal 100 can input all the persons who are to be inputted by the user from the cousin to the fable of the family, in the family lineage. Upon input, the control unit 160 can create a separate creation window to support the creation of a phone number, name, alias, anniversary, memo, and the like.

That is, the control unit 160 determines whether or not a specific character such as "Daughter Friend", "Daughter Friend 2", "Daughter Friend 3", " Such as "son friend 1", "son friend 2", or the like.

Through this process, it is possible to know the position of the person stored in the phonebook in relation to me, and to easily grasp the relationship, the number of souls, and the order without additional information in the name or name of another person.

On the other hand, the screen shown in FIG. 4 is capable of adjusting the size of the screen by the zoom-in and zoom-out functions. When the zoom-in function is activated, instead of reducing the number of nodes as shown in FIG. 5, The detailed information or information described in the node can be changed so that it can be confirmed more greatly. Alternatively, when the zoom-out function is activated, the control unit 160 controls the size of each node included in the screen to be displayed in a minimum size that can be identified so that the organization genealogy of the entire family can be viewed around the "I" . Additional description thereof will be described with reference to Fig.

FIG. 5 is a view showing a specific area enlarged by the zoom-in function in the screen shown in FIG. 4 of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the screen of the present invention displays a systematic genealogy including persons who are zoomed in around the "I" and are capable of becoming immediate family members in the entire organization genealogy. Here, each node is created to include items input by the user of the mobile terminal 100, and if there is no child, the items of "my daughter" and "son" included in the first layer may be deleted. In addition, when a specific person dies, it is possible to display a deadline for a specific node together with a deadline, and the node can display colors differently from other nodes. In the same manner, it is possible to specify that the color of a specific node can be displayed by putting a color arbitrarily designated by the user of the portable terminal 100, so that it can be designated as "yellow" or the like when the health is poor. The node of interest can be set to display a specific node different from other nodes by inputting a color or an identification symbol or a pattern which is easy for the user to identify, so that it can be easily confirmed when searching for phone book information. On the other hand, when the size of the node is larger than a certain size, the controller 160 can control the detailed information of the node to be displayed on each node. In other words, when the number of nodes displayed on the screen or the size of the node is greater than or equal to a predetermined size, the controller 160 displays detailed information related to the node, such as a telephone number, , A nickname, and the like can be displayed. In addition, when the detailed information can be additionally described by reducing or increasing the number of nodes due to the additional zoom in function, or when a specific node is designated, the controller 160 can display additional node information related to the node shown in FIG. 4 You can display more. That is, the control unit 160 can adjust the amount of information that can be displayed on the node step by step according to the size change of the node displayed on the screen.

Referring to FIG. 6, the phone book UI2 of the present invention shows organization lineages that can be displayed when "company" among the groups shown in FIG. 3 is selected. In the phone book UI2 according to the present invention, personnel corresponding to the respective levels are allocated to the first to sixth layers. That is, the display unit 140 displays the persons registered in the company group among the information stored in the phonebook by the upper and lower organizational hierarchies centering on "I". In this organization lineage, the mobile terminal user can arrange the same rank in the nodes placed between the respective layers, but by arranging the year difference of the rank from left to right, more clear organization lineage can be confirmed. In addition, each node can move between layers according to an operation of the input unit 120, for example, an event such as a drag. The mobile terminal user can change the node by using hierarchical movement when the position of a person located at a specific node is changed. When a new node is added to a specific layer, the controller 160 can automatically change the rank of nodes located in the same layer and the newly added node. On the other hand, when a specific person moves out of a long time, such as when a specific person leaves, moves out, or leaves training, the user of the mobile terminal specifies the color of the corresponding node differently, You can quickly and easily judge using UI2. In FIG. 6, although it is shown to display using a specific rank and sex, the name of each node can be arbitrarily adjusted by the user of the portable terminal.

In a case where a specific node is designated by a highlight scheme or the like in the above-mentioned "company" phonebook UI2, the display unit 140 can display detailed information of the corresponding node by using a bubble window or the like as shown in FIG. The node designation may be performed by a touch event when the display unit 140 is a touch screen, and may be performed using a direction key input and a confirmation key input of the input unit 120 in the absence of the touch screen function. The detailed information displayed by the bubble window may be information such as a telephone number, anniversary, address of a specific node, or may include a separate memo.

As described above, the phonebook UI2 according to the embodiment of the present invention displays the characters included in the group according to the organization lineage, thereby displaying the relation between the characters included in the specific group and me, the relationship between specific characters, Can be quickly and easily grasped.

Meanwhile, the phone book UI2 according to the present invention can provide a portable terminal using an integrated message function, a multi-party call function, and an event alarm function. A method for selecting a plurality of persons for providing the integrated message function, the multi-party call function, and the event alarm function will be described. Herein, a plurality of personnel selection methods will be described by taking an integrated message function as an example.

In the integrated message function, the phone book UI2 of the present invention can transmit an integrated message by designating the persons currently displayed on the display unit 140 by a zoom-in and zoom-out function. In other words, when the integrated message is to be sent in the state as shown in FIG. 4, the entire number displayed by the current zoom-out, that is, the whole from the grandfather down to the son and the daughter can be selected have. On the other hand, when the integrated message function is performed, the control unit 160 controls the display unit 140, which displays the immediate family members, mother, To select people to whom to send messages. In addition, the controller 160 may select a specific layer and select all the persons included in the layer as the persons to which the message is to be transmitted when the integrated message function of the present invention is performed. For example, in the case of the touch screen in FIG. 6, when the control unit 160 selects a specific area, for example, a blank area in which nodes are not displayed, of the areas in which the nodes of the second layer are arranged, Extract the telephone numbers of the persons included in each node so that the message can be transmitted to all the persons. If the touch screen is not displayed, the control unit 160 may provide a menu item of "hierarchical selection" and "node selection" In this case, the controller 160 may display the currently specified layer while allowing each layer to be inverted according to the movement of the direction key in the "layer selection ". If the specific layer is selected, the control unit 160 may select the persons of all the nodes included in the layer and extract the telephone number so that the message can be transmitted. Also, in the integrated message function of the present invention, the controller 160 can support selection of all lower nodes or all higher nodes among other nodes connected to the node when the specific node displayed on the display unit 140 is selected. In the case where the display unit 140 provides a touch screen function, when the control unit 160 sets an area selected by a touch event, for example, a closed curve on the display unit 140, Can be selected as the persons to which the message is to be transmitted and the corresponding telephone numbers can be extracted.
