Abstract

The invention relates to a method for managing file folder and related equipment. A multifunctional equipment displays a plurality of selective user interface objects on a display device; for responding to the detected first input, the equipment moves the first of the plurality of selective user interface objects on the display device to a position adjacent to the second of the plurality of selective user interface objects on the display device; and for responding to satisfying the predetermined file folder creation criterion, the equipment creates a file folder containing the first and the second object, wherein the file folder creation criterion is that: the first object is adjacent to the second object, while a first input is detected.
