JP 2007-188288 A

  The present inventor has found that there is the following problem in a technique (hereinafter referred to as “the technique”) for referring to information (reference information) related to input work.

  That is, there is a problem in that the user who performs the input work calls or searches for the reference information, and troubles such as hiding the reference information that is no longer necessary are generated.

  For example, in the input work for registering information related to failures that occurred in system operation management work, the input contents for each input item are determined while referring to a plurality of data (graphs, texts, diagrams, etc.) showing the details of the failure. Then, the determined content is input. In addition, in ordering the order quantity in the material ordering business, the order quantity is determined while referring to the inventory quantity, the consumption amount of the same period in the past, and other considerations, and the decided order quantity is entered. . Thus, when there is a large amount of information to be referred to during the input operation, the above problem becomes significant.

  Also, if there are multiple input items, the information to be referred to may differ depending on each input item. In such a case, each time the input item to be processed moves to another input item, the reference that has been called up to that point If the information is not hidden on the screen (such as closing the window), the number of reference information called up on the screen continues to increase and the screen becomes difficult to see. As a result, it becomes difficult to grasp which reference information should be referred to.

  Therefore, in the present invention, in the process of performing an input operation while referring to predetermined reference information, the user calls the predetermined reference information, searches for the reference information, and hides unnecessary reference information. It is an object of the present invention to provide a user-friendly technique capable of efficiently proceeding with an input operation performed while referring to predetermined reference information without performing a complicated operation.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  The apparatus according to the present embodiment includes an arbitrary computer CPU, memory, and a program loaded in the memory (a program stored in the memory in advance from the stage of shipping the apparatus, a storage medium such as a CD, and the like on the Internet). And a storage unit such as a hard disk for storing the program, and a network connection interface, and any combination of hardware and software. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that there are various modifications to the implementation method and apparatus.

  In addition, the functional block diagram used in the description of the present embodiment shows a functional unit block, not a hardware unit configuration. In these drawings, each device is described as being realized by one device, but the means for realizing it is not limited to this. That is, it may be a physically separated configuration or a logically separated configuration.

<First Embodiment>
First, the outline | summary of the input operation assistance apparatus of this embodiment is demonstrated.

  FIG. 1 is an example illustrating a state in which an input screen realized by the input operation support device of the present embodiment is displayed on a display. The input screen is useful when inputting any of the input area B in which input items (Item01 to 05, etc.) on which the user performs input work are arranged and a plurality of input items (Item01 to 05) displayed on the display. And a reference area A in which reference information is arranged.

  The reference information is grouped and hierarchized according to some logical rules such as requirements for input work and alphabetical order, and is displayed in different regions (panels) for each highest level hierarchy (for each group). In the example of FIG. 1, the reference information is classified into four groups, Info01, Info02, Info03, and Info04, and a plurality of reference information is displayed for each group.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the input operation support apparatus according to the present embodiment has a single or a plurality of input items that are referred to in the input operation for each input item displayed on the input screen in advance. Item related information (corresponding information) including information for specifying reference information is stored in association with each other.

  The item-related information (corresponding information) shown in FIG. 2 corresponds to “input item ID” that is an identifier that identifies an input item and “reference information ID” that is an identifier that identifies reference information corresponding to each input item. It is attached. The “input item ID” and the “reference information ID” have a relationship of 1: n (n is an integer of 0 or more). For example, the input item “Item01” is associated with “Info01-1” and “Info02-2” as reference information. The input item “Item02” is not associated with any reference information (there is no information to be referred to during input work). The input item “Item04” is associated with the reference information “Info02-2”.

  When the input operation support device of the present embodiment identifies an input item (Item 01 to 05 in the case of FIG. 1) displayed on the display, the input operation support device refers to the item related information (corresponding information) shown in FIG. The reference information ID associated with the input item being identified is specified. Then, based on the identified result, the display mode (layout and the like) of the plurality of reference information in the reference area A (see FIG. 1) is determined, and the plurality of reference information is displayed in the determined display mode (layout and the like).

  For example, the input operation support device uses the identified reference information ID to determine the priority order of a plurality of groups that classify the plurality of reference information. In the screen of FIG. 1, Items 01 to 05 are displayed as input items. Each of the reference information Info01-1 and Info02-3 corresponds to one of the display input items Item01 to 05. Therefore, 1 point is added to each of the Info01 group and Info02 group. Reference information Info01-2, Info02-1, and Info02-2 correspond to two of the display input items Item01 to 05, respectively. Therefore, 2 points are added to the Info01 group and 4 points are added to the Info02 group.

  From this result, the priority of the Info01 group is 3 (Info01-1: 1 point, Info01-2: 2 points), and the priority of the Info02 group is 5 (Info02-1: 2 points, Info02-2). : 2 points, Info02-3: 1 point), the priority of the Info03 group and the 04 group can be calculated as 0. Then, the input support apparatus determines the Info02 group, the Info01 group, and the Info03 and 04 groups in order from the highest priority.

  Then, according to the determined priority order, the display mode (layout etc.) of the plurality of reference information in the reference area A is determined. Specifically, a display mode (layout or the like) that preferentially displays reference information of a group having a high priority is determined. In the example shown in FIG. 1, only the group names are displayed for the Info03 group and the 04 group having a priority of 0. The Info02 group with a priority of 5 and the Info01 group with a priority of 3 are displayed side by side so that the display area ratio is 5: 3 (the calculated priority ratio).

  When a scroll operation is accepted in the input area B from the display shown in FIG. 1 and the input item displayed on the display is changed, the input support device identifies the input item displayed on the display in real time in the changed state. . Then, the display mode (layout or the like) of the reference area A is determined based on the input items identified in the same manner as described above, and the display mode of the reference area A is changed in real time as shown in FIG.

  Thus, according to this embodiment, according to the input item currently displayed on the display, the display aspect (layout etc.) of the reference information displayed on the reference area A of a display is determined to an aspect suitable for it. Can do. When an input for changing the input item displayed on the display is received, the input item displayed in the input area B of the display is changed according to the input content, and displayed in the reference area A of the display using the change as a trigger. The display mode (layout etc.) of the reference information to be performed can also be changed.

  According to this embodiment, in the process of performing input work while referring to predetermined reference information, the user calls or searches for predetermined reference information, or hides unnecessary reference information. Thus, a user-friendly technique that can efficiently perform an input operation while referring to predetermined reference information can be realized without performing a troublesome operation such as.

  Hereinafter, the configuration of the present embodiment will be described.

  First, FIG. 4 shows an example of a functional block diagram of the input support apparatus 1 of the present embodiment. As illustrated, the input support apparatus 1 includes a first display unit 10, a display input item specifying unit 11, a correspondence information storage unit 12, a display target reference information specifying unit 13, a priority order determining unit 15, The display mode determination unit 16, the second display unit 17, the reference information storage unit 18, and the input reception unit 19 are included. Hereinafter, each part will be described.

  The first display unit 10 displays an input screen including a plurality of input items on the display. A plurality of input items are displayed in the input area B which is a partial area in the input screen (see FIG. 1). The position of the input area B in the input screen is a design matter.

  The input screen may be, for example, an input screen for registering information regarding a failure that has occurred in the system operation management business. The content of the input item is not particularly limited, and may be the content of the failure, the date and time of failure occurrence, the current situation, the frequency of failure occurrence, the content of the processing performed, the content of the related SLA, and the like.

  In addition, the input screen may be, for example, an input screen for inputting an order quantity in the material ordering business. The content of the input item is not particularly limited, and may be an order quantity for each predetermined item, a desired delivery date, or the like.

  The illustration of the input screen here is only an example, and is not limited thereto.

  The input area B displaying a plurality of input items is configured such that the input items displayed on the display are selectively changed by scroll operation, tag selection operation, screen / page switching operation, or the like. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, only the input area B in the input screen can be configured to change the display content by the above-described operation independently of other areas.

  The first display unit 10 holds data for realizing display in the input area B in advance, and realizes the display as described above in the input area B using the data.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the display input item specifying unit 11 specifies a display input item which is one or a plurality of input items displayed on the display. As described above, the input area B in which the input items are displayed is configured such that the input items displayed on the display are selectively changed according to user operations such as a scroll operation, a tag selection operation, and a screen / page switching operation. It has become. The display input item specifying unit 11 specifies an input item currently displayed on the display as a display input item among the plurality of input items selectively displayed on the display part by part.

  For example, in the example shown in FIG. 1, the display input item specifying unit 11 specifies Items 01 to 05 as display input items. In the case of the example illustrated in FIG. 3, the display input item specifying unit 11 specifies Items 04 to 08 as display input items. Since the specifying process by the display input item specifying unit 11 can be realized according to the conventional technique, the description thereof is omitted here.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the reference information storage unit 18 stores a plurality of reference information related to at least some of the plurality of input items. The reference information related to the input item is information that is referred to when the input item is input. For example, information for determining the input content, information for determining the validity of the input content, and the like are the reference information.

  The detailed content of the reference information is a design matter. For example, when the input item is the above-described failure content and failure occurrence date and time, a list of alerts indicating failure information that is issued when the failure occurs may be used as the reference information. If the input item is the current status, a screen showing the current status of the monitoring target in real time may be used as the reference information. In addition, when the input item is related SLA content, a list of the SLA content may be used as reference information. Further, when the input items are the order quantity and the desired delivery date for each predetermined item described above, information indicating the current inventory quantity, information indicating the past consumption quantity, and the like may be used as the reference information.

  The correspondence information storage unit 12 stores correspondence information in which an input item is associated with one or more pieces of reference information related to the input item. FIG. 2 shows an example of correspondence information.

  In the correspondence information illustrated in FIG. 2, an “input item ID” that is an identifier that identifies an input item and an “reference information ID” that is an identifier that identifies reference information corresponding to each input item are associated with each other. The “input item ID” and the “reference information ID” have a relationship of 1: n (n is an integer of 0 or more). For example, the input item “Item01” is associated with “Info01-1” and “Info02-2” as reference information. The input item “Item02” is not associated with any reference information (there is no information referred to at the time of input). The input item “Item04” is associated with the reference information “Info02-2”.

  The correspondence information (see FIG. 2) only needs to be able to uniquely determine the correspondence between the input item and the reference information. For example, the correspondence information (see FIG. 2) may be represented by the name of the input item or the type of reference information.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the display target reference information specifying unit 13 refers to the correspondence information (see FIG. 2), and displays display target reference information that is reference information related to the display input item specified by the display input item specifying unit 11. Identify.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the priority order determination unit 15 includes a plurality of pieces of reference information according to a predetermined rule based on the display input item specified by the display input item specification unit 11 (based on which input item is displayed). Priorities are assigned to multiple groups. The grouping of the plurality of pieces of reference information can be based on some logical law such as requirements regarding input work or alphabetical order of names of reference information, but details thereof are not particularly limited. Further, the number of groups is not particularly limited. A plurality of reference information is grouped in advance, and the priority order determination unit 15 may hold information (means) for identifying the group in advance. In the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, the value (01, 02, 03, etc.) immediately after “Info” in the reference information ID is information for identifying the group to which each reference information belongs. Reference information having the same value (01, 02, 03, etc.) immediately after “Info” belongs to the same group.

  Here, an example of means for assigning priorities to a plurality of groups will be described.

  As an example, the priority order determination unit 15 can determine the priority order of groups based on the number of display target reference information included in each group. In the screen of FIG. 1, Items 01 to 05 are displayed as input items. The display target reference information Info01-1 and Info02-3 correspond to one of the display input items Item01 to 05, respectively. Therefore, 1 point is added to each of the Info01 group and Info02 group. Further, the display target reference information Info01-2, Info02-1, and Info02-2 correspond to two of the display input items Item01 to 05, respectively. Therefore, 2 points are added to the Info01 group and 4 points are added to the Info02 group.

  From this result, the priority determining unit 15 determines that the priority of the Info01 group is 3 (1 point + 2 points), the priority of the Info02 group is 5 (1 point + 4 points), and the priority of the Info03 group and the 04 group is 0. calculate. Then, the priority order determination unit 15 determines the Info02 group, the Info01 group, and the peer Info03 and 04 group in descending order of priority. Note that not only the priority determined by the priority determining unit 15 but also the priority of each group calculated by the priority determining unit 15 may be used in the display mode (layout etc.) determination process by the display mode determining unit 16. Good.

  Other examples will be described. The correspondence information storage unit 12 further stores relevance information in which information indicating related strength is associated for each pair of input items and reference information related to each other (see FIG. 5). In the example shown in FIG. 5, the numerical value in parentheses attached to the end of each reference information is information indicating the related strength. The maximum score is 3, and the greater the value, the stronger the related strength (relevance). For example, it can be seen that the degree of association between Item01 and Info01-1 is 3, and the degree of association between Item01 and Info02-2 is 1.

  Then, the priority order determination unit 15 can determine the priority order of the groups based on the number of display target reference information included in each group and the related strength between the display input item and the display target reference information. .

  In the screen of FIG. 1, Items 01 to 05 are displayed as input items. The degree of relevance of the display target reference information Info01-1 corresponding to the display input item Item01 is 3. For this reason, 3 points are added to the Info01 group. Further, since the relevance of the display target reference information Info02-2 corresponding to the display input item Item01 is 1, 1 point is added to the Info02 group. Other display target reference information corresponding to other display input items is processed in the same manner, and points are added to each group.

  From this result, the priority determining unit 15 determines that the priority of the Info01 group is 7 (Info01-1: 3 points, Info01-2: 2 + 2 points), and the priority of the Info02 group is 8 (Info02-1: 2 + 1 points, Info02). -2: 1 + 3 points, Info02-3: 1 point), the priority of the Info03 group and the 04 group can be calculated as 0. Then, the priority order determination unit 15 determines the Info02 group, Info01 group, and Info03 and 04 group in order from the highest priority. Note that not only the priority order determined by the priority order determination unit 15 but also the priority of each group may be used in the display mode (layout etc.) determination process by the display mode determination unit 16.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the display mode determination unit 16 displays the display target reference information on the display based on the display input item currently displayed on the display (based on which display input item is displayed). The display mode (layout etc.) to be determined is determined.

  And the 2nd display part 17 takes out display object reference information from the reference information memory | storage part 18, arranges in the display mode (layout etc.) which the display mode determination part 16 determined, and the input screen on which the display input item is displayed Are displayed in the reference area A. The second display unit 17 may display reference information other than the display target reference information in the reference area A, or may display only the display target reference information.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the input screen is useful when inputting any one of an input area B in which input items (Item 01 to 05, etc.) on which the user performs input work are arranged and a plurality of input items displayed on the display. And a reference area A in which reference information is arranged. In the example of FIG. 1, the input area B and the reference area A are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction, but other layouts such as a vertical direction may be used.

  Here, an example of a display mode (such as a layout) determined by the display mode determination unit 16 will be described.

  For example, the display mode determination unit 16 displays a plurality of reference information collectively for each group, and in accordance with the priority levels determined by the priority level determination unit 15, a display mode (layout) that preferentially displays groups with higher priority levels. Etc.) can be determined.

  More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the display mode determination unit 16 does not change the arrangement of a plurality of groups arranged according to a predetermined rule (a predetermined arrangement order, a predetermined positional relationship, etc.) It is possible to determine a display mode (such as a layout) in which a display area of a group with a high priority is made larger than a display area of a group with a low priority.

  In the example shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of groups are arranged in a line according to a predetermined rule. The display mode determination unit 16 can determine a display mode (layout or the like) in which the size of the display area of each group is changed according to the priority order without changing the arrangement order. The size of the display area of each group may be determined using the priority of each group calculated by the priority order determination unit 15, for example.

  In the case of the example in FIG. 1, only the group names are displayed for the Info03 and 04 groups whose priority is 0. Note that the Info03 and 04 groups whose priority is 0 may be hidden. The Info02 group with a priority of 5 and the Info01 group with a priority of 3 are displayed in such a size that the display area ratio is 5: 3.

  In the case of such a means, even if the display mode (layout, etc.) of the reference area A is changed, the positional relationship of the plurality of groups is not changed, so that the user can easily grasp which group is displayed at which position. can do. Based on the size of the display area of each group, it is easy to grasp which reference information contained in which group should be referred to when performing input work on the display input items currently displayed on the display. can do. That is, a group with a large display area may be referred to preferentially.

  As an example of other display modes (layouts, etc.), the display mode determination unit 16 has a layout in which a plurality of groups are arranged in descending order of priority (eg, arranged from top to bottom or left to right). Layout) can be determined. In the case of such means, the user refers to the reference information included in any group when performing an input operation on the display input item currently displayed on the display based on the arrangement order of the plurality of groups. You can easily figure out what to do. For example, when a plurality of groups are arranged in descending order of priority from the top to the bottom of the screen, the group located at the top may be referred to preferentially.

  By the way, if each group contains display target reference information (reference information related to the display input item) and other reference information (reference information not related to the display input item), or if only the display target reference information is included, When only other reference information is included, it is either. The display mode determination unit 16 may further determine the display mode (layout or the like) of the plurality of reference information in each group.

  For example, in the case of a group including only display target reference information or a group including only other reference information, a display in which a plurality of reference information is arranged in a predetermined arrangement method (arrangement order, positional relationship, etc.). A mode (a layout or the like) may be determined.

  On the other hand, in the case of a group in which display target reference information and other reference information are mixed, a plurality of pieces of reference information are arranged in a predetermined arrangement method (arrangement order, positional relationship, etc.), and the display target reference information is given priority. You may determine the display mode (layout etc.) displayed. For example, when a plurality of reference information included in each group is configured to be selectively displayed on a display using a means such as a scroll operation, the scroll position and page position so that the minimum display reference information is displayed. The tag position may be determined. Alternatively, a plurality of pieces of reference information are arranged in a predetermined arrangement method (arrangement order, positional relationship, etc.), and display target reference information is highlighted (displayed larger than other reference information, different in color from other reference information) The display mode displayed) may be determined. Or after arranging display object reference information in order from the top, the layout which arranged other reference information under it may be determined.

  The input receiving unit 19 receives an input for changing a display input item displayed on the display. The operation for changing the display input item varies depending on the configuration of the input area B, and includes, for example, a scroll operation, a tag selection operation, and a screen / page switching operation. The input receiving unit 19 receives an input for changing the display input item by such an operation.

  If the input reception part 19 receives the input which changes a display input item, the 1st display part 10 will change the display in the input area B by using it as a trigger. Also, using this as a trigger, the above-described processing for specifying the display input item by the display input item specifying unit 11, the processing for specifying the display target reference information by the display target reference information specifying unit 13, the priority by the priority determining unit 15 The process for determining the display mode, the process for determining the display mode (layout, etc.) by the display mode determining unit 16, and the process for displaying the display target reference information by the second display unit 17 are performed in conjunction with each other. As a result, when the input receiving unit 19 receives an input for changing the display input item, the input item displayed in the input area B of the display is changed according to the input content, and the reference information displayed in the reference area A of the display The display mode (layout, etc.) is also changed.

  Next, an example of the processing flow of the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

  First, when the input support apparatus 1 receives an input for displaying an input screen having the input area B and the reference area A on the display, the display input item specifying unit 11 is first displayed on the display based on the initial setting or the like. One or a plurality of input items (display input items) are specified (S10). Thereafter, the display target reference information specifying unit 13 refers to the correspondence information storage unit 12 (see FIG. 2), and specifies reference information (display target reference information) associated with the display input item specified in S10 ( S20).

  Thereafter, the priority order determination unit 15 assigns priorities to a plurality of groups obtained by grouping a plurality of reference information according to a predetermined rule based on the display input items specified in S10 (S30).

  Next, the display mode determination unit 16 determines a display mode (layout or the like) for displaying the display target reference information on the display based on the display input item specified in S10. For example, the display mode determining unit 16 displays a plurality of pieces of reference information collectively for each group, and determines a display mode (such as a layout) that preferentially displays a group having a high priority (S40).

  Thereafter, for example, an input screen as shown in FIG. 1 is displayed on the display (S50). In the input screen shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of input items determined based on, for example, initial settings are displayed in the input area B (first display unit 10). Further, the display target reference information extracted from the reference information storage unit 18 is displayed side by side in the reference area A in the display mode (layout or the like) determined in S40 (second display unit 17).

  After the input screen shown in FIG. 1 is displayed on the display, it is assumed that the user performs, for example, a scroll operation on the input area B and performs an input for changing an input item displayed on the display. For example, it is assumed that the items 01 to 03 shown in FIG. 1 are hidden and an operation of scrolling to the state where Item 04 is displayed at the top is performed.

  Then, the input receiving unit 19 receives the input. And the 1st display part 10 changes the display content in the input area B according to input content.

  Further, the display input item specifying unit 11 specifies one or more changed input items (display input items) displayed on the display after the change (S10 ′). Thereafter, the display target reference information specifying unit 13 refers to the correspondence information storage unit 12 (see FIG. 2), and the reference information (display target reference information) associated with the changed display input item specified in S10 ′. Is identified (S20 ′).

  Thereafter, the priority order determination unit 15 assigns priorities to a plurality of groups obtained by grouping a plurality of reference information according to a predetermined rule based on the display input item specified in S10 ′ (S30 ′).

  Next, the display mode determination unit 16 determines a display mode (layout or the like) for displaying the display target reference information on the display based on the display input item specified in S10 ′. For example, the display mode determination unit 16 displays a plurality of pieces of reference information collectively for each group, and determines a display mode (such as a layout) that preferentially displays a group having a high priority (S40 ′).

  Then, the second display unit 17 changes the display in the reference area A to a display in which the display target reference information specified in S20 ′ is arranged in the display mode (layout or the like) determined in S40 ′.

  As a result, the display shown in FIG. 1 is changed to the display shown in FIG.

  Thus, according to this embodiment, according to the input item currently displayed on the display, the display aspect (layout etc.) of the reference information displayed on the reference area A of a display is determined to an aspect suitable for it. Can do. When an input for changing the input item displayed on the display is received, the input item displayed in the input area B of the display is changed according to the input content, and displayed in the reference area A of the display using the change as a trigger. The display mode (layout etc.) of the reference information to be performed can also be changed.

  Hereinafter, modifications of the present embodiment will be described.

  The input support apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment includes a stationary display and a computer, and may display the above-described input screen (see FIGS. 1 and 3) on the display, or may be a notebook computer, a smartphone, or the like. It may be configured as a portable device.

  7 to 9 show examples of input screens when the input support device 1 of the present embodiment is a smartphone.

  As shown in the figure, the input screen includes an input area B ′ in which input items (Item 01 to 05, etc.) on which the user performs input work and reference information that is useful when inputting the input items displayed on the display. Reference area A ′. In the illustrated example, the input area B ′ and the reference area A ′ are arranged side by side in the vertical direction, but other display modes (layout, etc.) such as the horizontal direction may be used.

  In the case of the example shown in FIG. 7, since the display area of the display is small, the number of input items in the input area B ′ is one. Also, the Info03 and 04 groups having a priority of 0 are not displayed, and the Info01 group and the Info02 group having a predetermined value with a priority of 1 or higher are displayed with a predetermined display area ratio.

  Assume that the input receiving unit 19 receives an input for changing an input item displayed in the input area B ′ from the state illustrated in FIG. 7. For example, assume that Item 01 shown in the state shown in FIG. 7 is hidden and an input for displaying Item 03 is accepted.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 8, the 1st display part 10 changes the display content of input area B 'according to the said input. Further, the second display unit 17 changes the display content of the reference area A ′ according to the display change of the input area B ′. 7 and 8 show that the scroll position of Info01 is changed. Referring to the correspondence information in FIG. 2, it can be seen that Info01 is related to Item01, and Info01-2 is related to Item03. Therefore, in the example of FIG. 7 where the display input item is Item01, the display mode determination unit 16 determines the display mode at the scroll position where Info01-1 is preferentially displayed as the display mode of the Info01 group. Yes. On the other hand, in the example of FIG. 8 in which the display input item is Item03, the display mode determination unit 16 determines the display mode at the scroll position where Info01-2 is preferentially displayed as the display mode of the Info01 group. .

  Next, it is assumed that the input receiving unit 19 receives an input for closing the Info02 group display from the state illustrated in FIG. Then, the display mode determination part 16 determines the display mode according to the input content. Then, the second display unit 17 displays the reference information in the reference area A ′ in a newly determined display mode (see FIG. 9). In the case of the example shown in FIG. 9, the Info02 group displays a bar displaying only the name, and the area displaying the details of the reference information is closed. In addition, bars of other groups that have been hidden are displayed in the empty space in the same manner as the Info02 group.

  As another modification, in the above example, the priority is given to each group, and the reference information is displayed in units of groups. However, the priority is given in units of reference information (Info01-1, Info01-2, etc.). It can also be attached and displayed. For example, using the relevance levels described with reference to FIG. 5, a plurality of display target reference information may be prioritized in descending order of relevance levels. Then, only the display target reference information may be displayed in order from the highest priority. That is, reference information other than display target reference information may be hidden. In the case of this modification, only the display target reference information can be displayed on the display, which is effective when the display space is small.

  According to the present embodiment described above, in the process of performing input work while referring to predetermined reference information, the user calls out or searches for predetermined reference information, and hides unnecessary reference information. Thus, a user-friendly technique that can efficiently perform an input operation while referring to predetermined reference information can be realized without performing a troublesome operation such as.

<Second Embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the display mode of the reference information (selection input item) is based on the input item (display input item) displayed on the display and the display item (selection input item) selected by the user in the display input item. Layout).
