Abstract

A method of controlling an electronic device using a stylus includes establishing a wireless communication connection between the electronic device and the stylus; displaying a pointing object on a screen displayed on a display of the electronic device, wherein a position of the pointing object on the screen corresponds to a position of the stylus; obtaining first information related to whether an orientation of the electronic device is changed and second information related to whether the screen is fixed; setting a direction of a coordinate system of the display based on the first information and the second information; and moving the pointing object on the screen within the coordinate system to correspond to a movement of the stylus in space.
