Abstract

An electronic device includes a touch-sensitive display; a storing module, an accessing module, a display controller, a sensing module, and a file operating module. The accessing module obtains a folder representative icon from the storage module. The display controller displays the folder representative icon on the touch-sensitive display. The sensing module detects a first slide operation along a first direction on the folder representative icon. The file operating module spreads out a first display window, along the first direction from a side of the folder representative icon to display the sub-folder representative icon. The sensing module further detects a second slide operation on the sub-folder representative icon. The file operating module further spreads out the second display window, along a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, from a side of the sub-folder representative icon.
