Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic device that performs function setting by switching a menu screen and a menu display management method. Specifically, data representing the transition state of the menu screen is stored in advance, it is detected that the operation means has been operated, and the stored data is referred to based on the detection result, and the transition of the menu screen is detected. When it is judged necessary, it is possible to change a complicated program code even if the transition state of the menu screen is diverse by adopting a configuration in which the control means controls to display the menu screen corresponding to the operation of the operating means. In addition, the present invention relates to an electronic device or the like that can safely and quickly perform deletion, addition, and replacement of a menu screen.

  Many electronic devices that perform function setting by switching menu screens have been applied. The number of menu screens, the number of layers, and the number of operation keys for selecting menu screens tend to increase. For this reason, when the menu screen is switched by operating a predetermined operation member, it is not possible to determine whether the display has shifted to the lower hierarchy or the upper hierarchy by simply looking at the screen.

  In order to solve this, a vehicle navigation device has been proposed that can easily and accurately grasp whether the menu screen has been switched to an upper hierarchy or a lower hierarchy (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  In this case, when switching to a higher-level menu screen than the currently displayed menu screen, a new menu screen is gradually displayed from the lower side to the upper side of the display screen of the display device, and the lower-level menu is displayed. When switching to the screen, a new menu screen is gradually displayed from the upper side to the lower side of the display screen of the display device.

  In addition, in order to solve the time-consuming problem, all the screens on the way to displaying the target screen must be displayed, and a menu screen transition method is proposed that can perform screen transition easily and quickly ( For example, see Patent Document 2).

  In this case, when the user wants to change the screen, the screen map information stored in the screen map information storage device is displayed on the screen. When the screen to be changed is selected, the screen jumps from the screen immediately before the screen map information is displayed. By transitioning to the previous screen, the target screen is displayed. As a result, it is not necessary to display a screen in the middle of displaying the target screen, and screen transition can be performed at a very high speed.
