20110148933 | INFORMATION-PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROGRAM - In a communication terminal device, in a case where the arrangement of the windows is changed in a list screen, an overhead screen is initially displayed, in which the list screen is overviewed, and the arrangement of the windows is subsequently changed in the overhead screen, and a magnified screen (original screen) of the overhead screen, in which the arrangement of the windows has been changed, is displayed last, as described in the foregoing. By displaying a magnified image, it is possible to make windows better visible in a small display area of a mobile phone. Also, in a case where a window exists that cannot be displayed in a magnified screen, by displaying an overhead screen, it becomes possible for a user to recognize a fact that a window that cannot be displayed exists in a magnified screen, and also recognize a position of the window. | 06-23-2011 |
20110161873 | INFORMATION-PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROGRAM - An information-processing device, if an instruction to display a window group is received, displays the window group in a first size in a display area of display means, and then displays at least a part of the window group in a second size that is greater than the first size in the display area. If operation means receives an instruction to specify a window that is displayed in the display area, the information-processing device executes a process based on the specified window. | 06-30-2011 |
20110164048 | INFORMATION-PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROGRAM - An information-processing device comprises: a reception means for receiving an instruction to display an object image(s) on a display means for displaying an image, via an operation means for receiving an operation; a determination means for determining a number of the object image(s) when the object image(s) is displayed on the display means in response to the instruction; and a display control means for, in a case where the number determined by the determination means is equal to or larger than three and equal to or smaller than a threshold value, arranging and displaying the object images at positions such that, when points respectively determined in adjacent object images are connected by line segments, a figure formed by the line segments represents a polygon having a number of vertices corresponding to the determined number, and, in a case where the number determined by the determination means exceeds the threshold value, arranging and displaying the object images in rows extending in a predetermined direction in a display area of the display means. | 07-07-2011 |
20110167368 | INFORMATION-PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROGRAM - An information-processing device according to the present invention displays plural windows in a certain arrangement. The information-processing device selects one of displayed windows as a selected window, and in response to an operation to specify a direction, sets a window located in the direction as a selected window. The information-processing device also, in a case where plural windows are displayed in a certain arrangement, changes the arrangement in accordance with a predetermined operation. The change may be made in a regular manner or according to a random pattern. For example, in a case where window W | 07-07-2011 |
20110167389 | INFORMATION-PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROGRAM - The information-processing device according to the present invention, if a subject operation direction is “rightward,” specifies in a coordinate axis across a rightward direction, a range that overlaps an area between coordinates (Ya | 07-07-2011 |
20110173627 | INFORMATION-PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROGRAM - When executing plural application programs in parallel, a control unit assigns a small storage area to each application program so that a part of a function implemented by execution of each application program is provided. When providing a service of high value to a user, a control unit assigns a large storage area to any one of the application programs so that a full function that is implemented by execution of the application program is provided. | 07-14-2011 |
20120182312 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND PROGRAM - A communication apparatus stores schedule information and a decorative image attached to the schedule information in association with each other. The communication apparatus specifies a display section, at which the schedule information is displayed, in a schedule area in which the schedule information is arranged. In addition, the communication apparatus determines, as a candidate for a position on a schedule screen at which the decorative image is arranged, a position that, if the decorative image is arranged thereon, makes at least a part of the attached image overlap the schedule area in which the schedule information stored in association with the decorative image is arranged, and further prevents the decorative image from overlapping the specified display section. In addition, the communication apparatus arranges the decorative image on the position selected from a plurality of positions determined as candidates. | 07-19-2012 |
20120185760 | DATA-PROCESSING DEVICE, DATA-PROCESSING METHOD, PROGRAM, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A data-processing device includes: a display control means that causes a display means to display multiple input fields that receive input of data; an acquisition means that acquires multiple items of data constituting a data group; a recording means that records into a storage means a first item of data, which is one of the multiple items of data acquired by the acquisition means, while associating the first item of data with a first input field predetermined, and records into the storage means a second item of data, which is one of the multiple items of data acquired by the acquisition means and inputted later than the first item of data, while associating the second item of data with a second input field(s) that is included in the multiple input fields and is different from the first input field; and a specifying means. | 07-19-2012 |
20130305186 | DISPLAY DEVICE, USER INTERFACE METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A display device includes a display and a display controller that controls the display to display any of a plurality of screens and an input unit that receives a user's operation. The display controller displays one or more images corresponding to one or more software programs at positions, which correspond to the operation received by the input unit, in a customized area scrollable in the horizontal direction and adjacent to the left or right side of the initial screen, and displays a predetermined type of information at a predetermined position in a non-customized area scrollable in the vertical direction and adjacent to the initial screen at a position other than the customized area. The display controller scrolls the customized area using the size of the screen as the unit of scrolling. | 11-14-2013 |
20140059492 | DISPLAY DEVICE, USER INTERFACE METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A display apparatus includes: a display having a screen in which an image is displayed; an input unit having a surface on which a user's touch is sensed; a display controller that displays a plurality of individual icons and one or more category icons each of which represents a category of one or more individual icons; and a motion recognition unit that detects a pinching-out motion to widen a distance between two points of touch on the surface based on a motion sensed by the input unit, wherein the display controller changes a state of one or more individual icons associated with at least one category from an enfolded state in which the one or more individual icons are not displayed to an unfolded state in which the one or more individual icons are displayed. | 02-27-2014 |
