Description

  The present invention relates to display control of an information processing apparatus including a touch panel.

  In recent years, smartphones have become widespread. Since a smartphone has a touch panel, various operations can be performed with a fingertip.

  Since the touch panel of a smartphone is small, when viewing details of information displayed on the touch panel, a user operates the touch panel to perform enlarged display (pinch out). In addition, when the whole is desired, the display is reduced (pinch-in).

  In particular, when browsing linked information (for example, Web pages), you can pinch in / out the display screen, slide with your fingertips to display content that is not displayed on the touch panel, (Drag or flick) to scroll or move the page.

  Patent Document 1 describes a mechanism in which information with a link is displayed on a touch panel and a link exists at a location operated by a user.

  Patent Document 1 is a mechanism that allows selection of a link only within a link effective area, and shifts to a link destination of a link that was in a touch state when the touch was released within the link effective area. Also, when the touch moves from the link effective area to the outside while maintaining the touch state, predetermined processing other than link selection is performed based on at least one of the relative movement direction or distance of the touch with respect to the initial position of the touch. The mechanism to perform is disclosed.

WO2009 / 044770

  When displaying linked information on a smartphone, when pinch-in / pinch-out or flicking is performed, the user determines that the link is specified even though the link destination information is not intended to be displayed. There was a problem that link control for acquiring link destination information was performed.

  More specifically, with the current mechanism, it is possible to display and read the contents actually displayed on the screen (for example, a Web page) with a user-desired font size by displaying the desired portion by an intuitive operation. ing. For this reason, when the fingertip is placed on the touch panel in the following cases 1 to 3, if there is a link where the fingertip is placed, it is determined that the fingertip has been tapped when the fingertip is released after the operations 1 to 3. If it is determined to be a tap, a transition to the linked screen occurs.

  Therefore, if you want to read the continuation again, you will return to the previous page and put a burden on the user.

1. 1. Pinch out / pinch in, flick or drag. 2. Scrolling stops and scrolls further. Stop scrolling while scrolling

  In addition, if a process of transitioning to a link destination is performed when communication is not possible, there is a problem that a communication error occurs and it is not possible to return to the previous page.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a mechanism that suppresses screen transition when a link is not intended by a user and improves browsing operability by an operation on a touch panel.

  In order to achieve an object of the present invention, an information processing apparatus including a display unit of a touch panel displays a document including link information on a display control unit that controls display on the display unit, and displays the document via the touch panel. A link that prevents link processing from being performed through the touch panel when it is determined by the operation determination unit that the predetermined operation has been performed, and when the operation determination unit determines that the predetermined operation has been performed. And deterring means for deterring.

  In addition, a link setting unit that sets the validity / invalidity of the link is provided, and the suppression unit performs a predetermined operation on the display of the document via the touch panel, and the link invalidation is set by the link setting unit. In addition, the linking is suppressed so that the linking process is not performed by the operation via the touch panel.

  The image processing apparatus further includes size determination means for determining whether or not the character size of the document has reached a predetermined size by a predetermined operation for displaying the document via the touch panel, and the suppression means is the size determination means. When it is determined that the predetermined size is reached, the link is suppressed so that the link processing is not performed by the operation via the touch panel.

  Further, the apparatus further comprises flick determination means for determining whether or not the predetermined operation is a flick, and when the flick determination means determines that the predetermined operation is a flick, the suppression means performs link processing by an operation via the touch panel. It is characterized by suppressing the link so that it is not done.

  The information processing apparatus may further include a specifying unit that specifies link information of the document, and the suppression unit changes the link information of the document specified by the specifying unit to information that is not linked.

  In addition, according to an instruction on the touch panel by a user, the apparatus further includes a suppression release unit that cancels the suppression of the link by the suppression unit. The suppression unit stores the changed link information in a storage unit, and the suppression cancellation unit includes: The link information stored in the storage unit is acquired, and the unlinked information of the document changed by the suppression unit is changed to be linked according to the acquired link information.

  Further, the information processing apparatus further includes a communication state determination unit that determines a communication state of the information processing apparatus, and the suppression unit determines that the communication state level is low when the communication state determination unit determines that the communication state level is low. It is characterized in that the link is suppressed so that the link processing is not performed by the operation.

  Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 5, the overall process in the link misoperation control of the touch panel of this embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart of the entire process in the link error operation control when browsing the touch panel screen.

  First, an outline of this process will be described. This process is performed when the user displays a screen with a link (for example, a Web page) on the input unit 207, and the result of the “link ON / OFF button” being pressed, or the user scrolling or pinching in / out. Based on the result, a link determination flag (link ON / OFF) is set, automatic link control mode determination (details will be described with reference to FIG. 8) is performed based on the set information (FIG. 9), and link control ( Link disabling process or returning process) (details will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7).

  In FIG. 8, when the current mode is “automatic link control enabled mode” (mode 001), the font size changes due to the user's pinch-in / out operation, and flicks in the same direction are performed a predetermined number of times within a predetermined time. The link is automatically controlled to be valid / invalid depending on whether it is received. When the current mode is the “automatic link control disabled mode”, link control is not performed even when the font size is changed by a pinch-in / out operation and flicking in the same direction is performed a predetermined number of times within a predetermined time.

  However, even if the automatic control link valid / invalid condition in the “automatic link control enable mode” (mode 001) is satisfied, if the “link ON / OFF button” is pressed by a user operation, “ The operation content of the “link ON / OFF button” is given priority.

  The flick is an operation using a touch panel to slide a pen or a finger that touches the screen. In particular, by touching the touch panel screen to quickly pay and flicking up and down, the window is scrolled, that is, the screen is scrolled.

  Hereinafter, a detailed description of this process will be described step by step. It is assumed that various commands are issued from the smartphone 102 during communication with the server 101, various processes are performed by the server 101, and a response is sent to the smartphone 102.

  In step S501, in accordance with the URL designation by the user, a link page is displayed to display the web page (1001) including the link destination URL acquired from the web server (not shown) on the input unit 207 and to control the link. The flag and mode determination information are acquired from the server 101. The acquired link determination flag and mode determination information are stored in the RAM 212 and used in the processing of S503, S513, and S518 described later. Step S501 is a process for controlling the display of the document including the URL (link information) on the display unit (display control).

  In step S502, it is determined whether the “link ON / OFF button” has been pressed by the user.

  First, a process when the “link ON / OFF button” is pressed in step S502 (YES in step S502) will be described.

  In step S503, it is determined whether the current link is ON or OFF based on the link determination flag (FIG. 9) acquired in step S501.

  If the current link determination flag (FIG. 9) is True (link is ON) in step S503, the mode ID (801) of the mode determination information (FIG. 8) of the server 101 is set to mode 002 (auto link) in step S504. Set to the non-controllable mode. If the current link determination flag (FIG. 9) is False (link is OFF) in step S503, the mode ID of the mode determination information (FIG. 8) of the server 101 is set to mode 001 (automatic link control enabled mode) in step S508. ).

  If the mode ID (801) of the mode determination information (FIG. 8) is set to mode 002 (automatic link control disabled mode) in step S504, the button display of the “link ON / OFF button” is turned OFF in step S505. In step S506, the link determination flag (FIG. 9) of the server 101 is set to False (link OFF). That is, it is a process for setting the validity / invalidity of the link (link setting).

  Then, the link disabling process in step S600 (FIG. 6) is performed. That is, when it is determined that a predetermined operation has been performed, the link is suppressed so that the link process is not performed by an operation via the touch panel. In addition, when a predetermined operation for displaying a document is performed via the touch panel and invalidity of the link is set, the link is suppressed so that the link processing is not performed by the operation via the touch panel.

  Here, the link disabling process in step 600 will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing details of the link disabling process. The link disabling process is a process for removing a link in HTML.

  In step S601, it is searched whether “href” exists in the <a> tag in the HTML. That is, it is processing for specifying link information of a document. The <a> tag is a tag indicating a link.

  If “href” exists in step S601, the contents of “href = URL” in the HTML in step S602 are transferred to the link destination information (1102) in the order of the item ID (1101) in the link information storage table of FIG. Store. That is, it is a process of storing the changed link information in the storage means.

  After the storage, “href = URL” in the HTML stored in step S603 is deleted from the HTML. That is, it is a process of changing the link information of the specified document to information that is not linked. In more detail, the stored link information is acquired from the storage unit, and the non-linked information (href = information from which the URL is deleted) of the changed document is changed so that the link processing is performed according to the acquired link information. In other words, it is a process to restore the original.

As a result, the link of the HTML source can be changed from the ON state (1200) to the OFF state (1201).

  This process is repeated until “href” does not exist in the <a> tag in the HTML in step S601.

If “href” does not exist in the <a> tag in the HTML in step S601, the process ends, and the process returns to step S507 in FIG.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 5, in step S <b> 507, the screen subjected to the link disabling process in step S <b> 600 is displayed on the input unit 207.

  If the mode ID of the mode determination information (FIG. 8) is set to mode 001 (automatic link control enable mode) in step S508, the “link ON / OFF button” button display is turned ON in step S509, and in step S510. The link determination flag (FIG. 9) of the server 101 is set to True (link ON). That is, it is a process for setting the validity / invalidity of the link (link setting). Moreover, it is a process which cancels suppression of a link according to the instruction | indication on a touch panel by a user (inhibition cancellation).

  Then, the link return process in step S700 (FIG. 7) is performed.

  Here, the link return process in step 700 will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing details of the link return process. The link return process is a process for returning a link in HTML.

  In step S701, it is searched whether an <a> tag exists in the HTML.

  If an <a> tag exists in step S701, “href =” associated with the item ID (1101) stored in the link information storage table of FIG. 11 in the <a> tag in HTML in step S702. URL ”is set. In this embodiment, it is assumed that link destination information 1102 is acquired in the order of item ID 1101 and set in the <a> tag. As a result, the link of the HTML source is changed from the OFF state (1201) to the ON state (1200). After setting, the item ID (1101) and link destination information (1102) “href = URL” set in the HTML in the table in step S703 are deleted.

  This process is repeated until there is no <a> tag in the HTML in step S701.

  If the <a> tag in the HTML does not exist in step S701, it is confirmed in step S704 that there is no data in the link information storage table in FIG. 11, and the process returns to step S511.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 5, in step S <b> 511, the linked screen is displayed on the input unit 207. If the <a> tag in the HTML does not exist in step S704 but data exists in the link information storage table, the data is emptied in the link information storage table in step S705. Returning to the process of step S511, the linked screen is displayed on the input unit 207.

  If the link is updated from ON to OFF in step S511, the next processing is performed after a certain time so that the link is not immediately turned OFF in the automatic link control enable mode (so that the user can keep pressing the link). It is desirable to go to (transition image from 1009 to 1010 in FIG. 10).

  After displaying the screen in which the link is controlled in steps S507 and S511, it is determined in step S512 whether or not to end (for example, closing the web page or terminating the browser displaying the web screen). Then, the link erroneous operation control flowchart is ended. In the case of NO, the process returns to step S501, and the processing after step S502 is repeated.

  Next, a process when the “link ON / OFF button” is not pressed by the user in step S502 will be described.

  If the “link ON / OFF button” is not pressed by the user in step S502, the current “automatic link control possible mode” (mode 001) based on the mode determination information (FIG. 8) of the server 101 in step S513. Or “automatic link control disabled mode” (mode ID 002).

  If it is determined in step S513 that the current mode is “automatic link control disabled mode” (mode ID 002), no processing is performed and the process proceeds to step S512.

  If the current mode is “automatic link control enabled mode” (mode 001) in step S513, the web screen is enlarged or reduced by the user's pinch-in / out operation in step S514, and the font size of the web screen is set. It is determined whether it is above the reference value. When there are a plurality of font sizes, the determination is made based on the font size at a predetermined location, for example, based on the font size at the location where the link exists. That is, it is processing for determining whether or not the character size of the document has reached a predetermined size by a predetermined operation on the display of the document (Web page) via the touch panel (size determination).

  Note that the font size (character size) for determining the predetermined size is stored in the smartphone in advance.

  If the font size resulting from the user's pinch-out operation is larger than the reference value in step S514, the “link ON / OFF button” button display is turned off in step S505, and the link determination flag (FIG. 9) is set to false in step S506. (Link OFF), and the link disabling process in step S600 (FIG. 6) is performed. That is, when it is determined by the size determination that the predetermined size is reached, the link is suppressed so that the link process is not performed by an operation via the touch panel.

  If the font size resulting from the user's pinch-in operation is smaller than the reference value in step S514, it is determined in step S515 whether a flick has occurred. That is, it is processing for determining whether or not the predetermined operation is a flick (flick determination).

  If there is no flick in step S515, no processing is performed and the process proceeds to step S512.

  If there is a flick in step S515, it is determined in step S516 whether the link has been pressed during the flick.

  If the link is pressed, the process returns to step S501, the pressed link information is acquired, the link destination Web screen is acquired and displayed on the input unit 207.

  If the link has not been pressed, it is determined in step S517 whether a predetermined number of flicks have occurred within a predetermined time. If a flick occurs in the same direction a predetermined number of times within a predetermined time in step S517, the button display of the “link ON / OFF button” is turned OFF in step S505, and the link determination flag (FIG. 9) of the server 101 is set to false in step S506. (Link OFF), and the link disabling process in step S600 (FIG. 6) is performed.

Thereafter, in step S507, a link impossible screen is displayed on the input unit 207.

  In step S507, when the transition is made from the determination flicked a plurality of times in step S517, the screen that has been subjected to the link disabling process is not updated and displayed so that even if the link is pressed, it does not jump to the link destination. , Scrolling may be continued. Further, the screen may be refreshed after the flick is completed.

  Since the determination in steps S514 to S517 is a determination of an operation via the touch panel of the smartphone, it is a process of determining whether or not a predetermined operation for displaying a document (Web page) has been performed via the touch panel (operation Judgment).

  If there is no same direction flick a predetermined number of times within a predetermined time in step S517, it is determined in step S518 whether the link of the currently displayed screen is ON or OFF based on the link determination flag (FIG. 9).

  If the link determination flag is True (link ON) in step S518, no processing is performed and the process proceeds to step S512.

  If the link determination flag is False (link OFF) in step S518, the “link ON / OFF button” is turned ON in step S509, and the link determination flag (FIG. 9) of the server 101 is set to True (link ON) in step S510. To. That is, it is a process for setting the validity / invalidity of the link (link setting). Moreover, it is a process which cancels suppression of a link according to the instruction | indication on a touch panel by a user (inhibition cancellation).

  Then, the link return process in step S700 (FIG. 7) described above is performed, and the screen returned to the link in step S511 described above is displayed on the input unit 207. That is, when a flick is determined by the flick determination, the link is suppressed so that the link process is not performed by an operation via the touch panel.

  With the processing in FIG. 5, it is possible to suppress the screen transition when the link is not intended by the user and to improve the browsing operability.

  In particular, the user touches the touch panel to indicate the link information when flicking and scrolls the page, or to stop scrolling the flicked page, and the touched location is the link information location. By instructing the link, it is possible to prevent transition to a link destination unintended by the user.

  Next, the screen transition of the process of the flowchart of FIG. 5 will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen image of link validity / invalidity in the state of the automatic link control enable mode (initial value) and the automatic link control disable mode.

  First, when an attempt is made to display a screen with a link (for example, a Web page), an initial screen is displayed in the automatic link control enable mode (FIG. 8) (1001). For example, step S501.

  If the user pinches out on the screen (1001) in the initial state and the font size is smaller than the reference value, the link remains valid (1002). For example, NO in step S514.

  When the font size is smaller than the reference value as shown in the screen 1002 and the “link ON / OFF button” is tapped by the user, the user's button tap is given priority even in the automatic link control enabled mode, and the automatic link is performed. The mode is changed to the uncontrollable mode, the “link ON / OFF button” is also turned OFF, and the link is also turned OFF (1003). For example, step S504, step S505.

  In the case of the automatic link control disabled mode (mode 002 in FIG. 8), the link is maintained invalid until the “link ON / OFF button” is tapped again by the user and the mode is switched to the automatic link control enabled mode.

  Therefore, when pinching is performed by the user in the automatic link control disabled mode, the link remains invalid regardless of whether the font size is smaller than the reference value (1004). For example, NO in step S513.

  If the user performs a flick (first time) when the automatic link control disabled mode is set and the font size is smaller than the reference value, a screen 1005 is displayed. For example, when a flick (second time) is performed again within a predetermined time, the screen of 1006 is displayed. Even if several seconds elapse as it is (even when a predetermined number of flicks are not performed within a predetermined time), the screen of 1007 is maintained in which the link remains invalid.

  Even if the pinch out is performed by the user in the automatic link control disabled mode and the font size is larger than the reference value, the link remains invalid without determining whether the font size is larger than the reference value. The maintained 1008 screen is displayed.

  When the “link ON / OFF button” is tapped by the user in a state where the font size is larger than the reference value, the “link ON / OFF button” is turned ON, and the mode is switched to the automatic link control enabled mode. In this case, the link ON / OFF determination by the automatic link control in step S503 is not performed, and the user's button operation is prioritized and the font size is larger than the reference value, but the link may be validated. 1009 screen.

  After a lapse of several seconds, link determination is performed again as processing in the automatic link control enable mode. If the font size is larger than the reference value, the “link ON / OFF button” is turned OFF and the link is invalidated (screen 1010). For example, a screen when a predetermined time has elapsed after displaying the screen in step S511 after the processing in step S511.

  The reason for determining the link after a few seconds elapses is that the user has intentionally performed an operation to turn on the link because there is a possibility of pressing the link, so that it takes time to press the link. .

  Thereafter, when the user pinches in and the font size becomes smaller than the reference value, the link ON / OFF button "is turned ON for the automatic link control mode, and the link is enabled (screen 1011).

  FIG. 8 shows mode determination information stored in the external memory 311 of the server 101 (which may be the storage unit 210 of the smartphone 102). When the current mode is “automatic link control enabled mode”, mode 001 is stored. The validity / invalidity of the link is automatically controlled according to a change in the font size due to the user's pinch-in / out operation and whether a flick in the same direction has been performed a predetermined number of times within a predetermined time. When the current mode is the “automatic link control disabled mode”, the mode 002 is stored. In the “automatic link control disabled mode”, the link control is not performed even when the font size is changed by a pinch-in / out operation and flicking in the same direction is performed a predetermined number of times within a predetermined time.

  However, even if the automatic control link valid / invalid condition in the “automatic link control enable mode” (mode 001) is satisfied, if the “link ON / OFF button” is pressed by a user operation, “ The mode ID is stored in the mode determination information 800 with priority given to the operation content of the “link ON / OFF button”.

  FIG. 9 is a link determination flag stored in the external memory 311 of the server 101 (which may be the storage unit 210 of the smartphone 102).

  The link determination flag is a flag for determining whether the link on the screen is ON or OFF. When the link is ON, True is set. When the link is OFF, False is set.

  FIG. 11 is a link storage table that stores link information stored in the external memory 311 of the server 101 (which may be the storage unit 210 of the smartphone 102) so as not to link.

  The contents of “href = URL” in HTML that is not linked are stored together with the ID.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of HTML when the link is ON and the link is OFF.

  The description of HTML when the link is ON (description of a state where the link is possible) is indicated by 1200, and the description when the link is OFF (description of the state where the link is not possible) is indicated by 1201.

  The example of 1200 is an example in the case of the screen 1001, the screen 1002, and the screen 1009, for example. An example of 1201 is an example in the case of a screen 1003, a screen 1004, a screen 1005, a screen 1006, a screen 1007, and a screen 1008, for example.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 13, the link misoperation control (link control) of the touch panel in consideration of the communication state of the smartphone will be described. FIG. 13 is a flowchart in the link misoperation control of the touch panel in consideration of the communication state of the smartphone.

  In step S1301, the communication state of the communication unit 208 is acquired, and a state in which a screen to be displayed can be acquired is determined. That is, it is processing for determining the communication state (communication state determination).

  It is determined whether or not communication is possible, that is, whether or not communication is good. If the communication is impossible (not good), the process proceeds to step S502. That is, when it is determined that the communication state level is low, the link is suppressed so that the link processing is not performed by an operation via the touch panel.

  When communication is possible (good), normal processing without link control is executed. The normal process is a process of displaying a Web screen without turning off the link, and acquiring and displaying the link destination screen if there is a link at the touched location.

  This is because if the communication state is good and communication is possible, it is possible to return to the previous screen immediately after acquiring the linked Web page, so it is not necessary to disable the touch panel link. is there. If communication is impossible, it is impossible to communicate with the previous page and return, so the link is disabled.
