ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD

摘要

An electronic device and a control method thereof are described. The control method is adopted by an electronic device which includes a touch panel, a processing unit and an IO port. The control method includes: executing an application, and outputting an output signal from the IO port to an external device according to the application; receiving sense energies, by a plurality of sense units of the touch panel; setting the sense unit with the sense energy exceeding a predetermined energy as a touched sense unit; and when a first condition is met, stopping or suspending, by the processing unit, the application; wherein the first condition includes a touch trail formed by the touched sense units stretching from the first side to the second side and lasting for a predetermined period.
