Abstract
A method and apparatus for displaying an object are provided. The display apparatus includes a display unit which displays an object, a first touch sensing unit which senses a user input by a first input method, a second touch sensing unit which senses a user input by a second input method, a coordinate calculation unit which calculates coordinate values sensed by the first and the second touch sensing units, and a controller which, in response to a user input being simultaneously sensed by the first and the second touch sensing units, compares the coordinate values sensed by the first and the second touch sensing units and determines whether the user input is a single touch input or a multi-touch input, and, according to a result of the determination, controls to display the object on the display unit.
