摘要

Disclosed are a touchscreen terminal apparatus and a method for supporting a mouse UI on a screen of an application executed by a server in a server-based computing system in a terminal environment. According to the present invention, the touchscreen terminal apparatus for supporting a mouse UI includes: a mouse generating unit configured to generate control information on a mouse including a mouse pointer and a select button when an application of a server side is executed by a terminal service provided from a server; a mouse display unit configured to display the control information on the mouse on the screen in response to a generated mouse event; a mouse input unit configured to receive information that a user touches the screen; and a mouse control unit configured to transmit a mouse generation event to the mouse generating unit, to generate a mouse event, such as a selection or drag input using the mouse, in response to the users touch information transmitted from the mouse input unit, and to transmit a corresponding mouse display event to the mouse display unit to control the operation and screen display of the mouse. According to the present invention, the mouse UI is provided on the screen of the application executed by the server, thereby enabling a user to operate the application conveniently and accurately using mouse commands.
