PURPOSE: A device for controlling indication device's icon indication status is provided to easily recognize the selected icon's status, to increase user's recognition and to enable user to feel the icon to be more elegant even when a framed icon is selected to indicate an active icon, to resolve active selection icon, which is achieved from simple reversion of normal icon's indication state, and to diversify icon's indication state according to operator's intention. CONSTITUTION: A device for controlling indication device's icon indication status is composed of reception, extraction, output, and indication. Controller(40) controls portable device's general actions and icon indication state's actions. Controller possesses and uses one chip microprocessor and it also possesses a buffer that stores internally processed data. LCD controller(60) is operated under controller's control and it receives appropriate data from the controller, and transmits and displays data on LCD panel(80). Received data is known as 'indication data' and it's stored in a designated area under LCD controller's control. Indication data displayed on LCD panel is composed of data that is individually extracted and output by icon storage(50) and active icon storage(70). According to icon indication requests, controller individually extracts necessary indication data from icon storage and transmits it to LCD controller, and transmitted indication data is displayed on LCD panel. Controller selectively extracts active icon indication data from icon storage, transmits it to LCD controller, and enables indication to take place. Icon storage and active icon storage's indication data correspond to each other, and if a selection input is made for indicator of icon storage's stored indication, active icon storage's indication data, that corresponds to icon storage's data, is extracted and indicated.
