Description

  The present invention relates to a display control device, a display control method, and a program for moving and displaying an object across a screen.

  A smartphone or tablet equipped with a touch panel is known that displays a plurality of objects such as thumbnail images and icons on a plurality of screens and allows the user to freely change the display order. For example, on a mobile phone, you can move (drag) the app icon to the screen edge of each page while touching the app icon to change the icon to the next page and move the icon to the specified location. There is something you can do. Thus, when an icon is dragged to the screen edge, the screen is changed and the icon is moved across the screen.

  Further, Patent Document 1 proposes a method for selecting object scrolling and object replacement without greatly changing the positional relationship of objects when the objects do not fit on one screen. In Patent Document 1, on the screen on which a plurality of icons are arranged, the user moves the stick onto the arrow icons displayed on both ends of the screen while touching the icon to which the user wants to move. In other words, the screen can be scrolled by dragging over the arrow icon. Then, the icon to be moved can be moved over the icon to be exchanged, and the two can be exchanged. Thus, in patent document 1, a screen is changed with an arrow icon.

JP 2012-58979 A

  In the mobile phone described above, when the icon is moved across the screen, when the icon is dragged to the screen edge, the system detects it and the screen automatically changes. However, since the detection speed of the system related to the scrolling operation cannot be recognized by the user, if the user does not move the icon from the screen edge in a timely manner, the screen may be scrolled more than intended. In addition, since the region at the screen edge for recognizing the execution of the scroll operation is not clear, the drag may be released.

  Similarly, in Patent Document 1, since the detection speed of the system cannot be recognized by the user, the screen may be scrolled more than intended. Furthermore, in Patent Document 1, two icons can be replaced, but an icon cannot be inserted.

  The display control apparatus of the present invention for solving the above-described problems includes a specifying unit that specifies that an object is selected from a plurality of objects displayed on the display screen of the display unit, and the specifying unit is an object Display control means for displaying on the display screen an auxiliary unit for moving the display position of the selected object in response to specifying the selection, and display of the object via the auxiliary unit displayed on the display screen Receiving means for receiving an instruction to move the position; and determining means for determining an arrangement position of the selected object based on the movement instruction received by the receiving means; and the auxiliary unit selects the selected object. Can be moved between a plurality of display screens, and the display control means is selected based on a movement instruction received by the receiving means.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments do not limit the present invention according to the claims, and all combinations of features described in the present embodiments are essential to the solution means of the present invention. Not exclusively.

(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a configuration of a display control apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
A display device 100 illustrated in FIG. 1 is a device operated with a touch panel such as a smartphone or a tablet. The display device 100 includes a CPU 10, a RAM 11, a hard disk (HD) 12, a display unit 13, an operation unit 14, a ROM 15, a detection unit 16, and a processing unit 17.

  The CPU 10 is a central processing unit that integrally controls each unit of the display device 100 by executing programs such as an operating system (OS), application software, and a device driver. The CPU 10 controls each device of the display device 100 and calculates / processes data according to a program stored in the RAM 11, ROM 15 or hard disk 12.

  The RAM 11 is used not only as a work area for the CPU 10 but also as a temporary storage area when the CPU 10 performs various processes. The ROM 15 is a memory that stores a startup program and the like. The hard disk 12 is a fixed storage unit that stores an OS, application software, and the like, and stores processing results performed by the CPU 10.

  The display unit 13 is a CRT display, a liquid crystal display, or the like, and displays a graphical user interface (hereinafter also referred to as GUI) under the control of the CPU 10. For example, various objects such as application icons and images are displayed on the GUI.

  The operation unit 14 is a device for the user to give various instructions to the display device 100. In the present embodiment, at least a part of the operation unit 14 is a touch panel integrated with the display unit 13, and further includes buttons and the like. Also good. As described above, in the present embodiment, the touch display panel has the functions of the display unit 13 and the operation unit 14 (at least a part thereof) at the same time.

  The detection unit 16 detects a user operation on the screen, receives a response to the operation from the processing unit 17, and causes the display unit 13 to display the result. The processing unit 17 processes various operations performed by the user via the operation unit 14 and commands sent from the CPU 10, and prompts each part to respond to the user.

  The CPU 10, RAM 11, HD 12, display unit 13, operation unit 14, ROM 15, detection unit 16, and processing unit 17 are connected via a system bus, and can exchange data. Here, the display on the display device 100 of FIG. 1 will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

  A display screen 201 in FIG. 2 corresponds to the display unit 13 in FIG. 1 and displays a plurality of objects 202 (here, thumbnails of images). The display screen 201 operates by receiving an input from the user by a touch operation. The touch operation here may be an operation performed on a part of a human body such as a finger, or may be an operation using a tool such as a stylus pen.

  There are image thumbnails A to Z that can be displayed on the display screen 201, and the image thumbnails A to L are displayed on the display screen 201 shown in FIG. Is displayed. The thumbnails of images displayed on the display screen 201 can be scrolled up and down. Examples of the object include an icon (for example, an app icon) that expresses the content and target of processing with a small picture or symbol, an image thumbnail, and the like. An example of the display screen 201 is a home screen.

  Here, a case where it is desired to change the display position of the thumbnail D (hereinafter also referred to as the object D) will be described.

  First, the user 400 presses and holds the object D to be moved. When the detection unit 16 illustrated in FIG. 1 detects that the user 400 has long pressed D, the CPU 10 shifts the display device 100 to a mode in which thumbnails of images are replaced (hereinafter also referred to as “replacement mode”). In addition, the operation | movement used as the trigger which rushes into replacement mode is not limited to long press. For example, a predetermined specific type of gesture may be used as a trigger, such as clicking with two fingers, sliding with two fingers, or drawing a circle from a tapped location. In addition, a function button for controlling the switching mode may be displayed on the display unit 13 and the click of the function button may be used as a trigger, or pressing of another button included in the display device 100 may be used as a trigger.

  FIG. 3A shows a state in which the display screen 201 has shifted to the replacement mode. On the display screen 201, the object D that has been long-pressed is displayed in a state of being slightly lifted from the other thumbnails, and a scroll bar 301 is newly displayed therebelow. The scroll bar 301 is an auxiliary unit for assisting the screen transition of the selected object D. That is, the scroll bar 301 is an auxiliary unit that assists in moving an object between different display screens.

  A knob 302 (a gray portion in the figure) of the scroll bar 301 indicates where the screen displayed on the display screen 201 is in the entire display. That is, when the display screen is scrollable, the knob 302 indicates the position on the entire screen currently being displayed. In FIG. 3A, since the object A, which is the first image, is displayed at the top, the position of the knob 302 also points to the top. Here, the entire screen refers to the entire screen that displays the object, and includes a screen that is not displayed on the display screen 201. That is, the display screen displayed on the display screen 201 is a part of the entire screen. When the entire screen is composed of a plurality of screens, the display screen 201 displayed on the display unit 13 displays any one of the plurality of screens. The display screen 201 displayed on the display unit 13 is not limited to this, and may display a part of one screen (entire screen). That is, a large screen may be displayed for each predetermined range.

  The size of the knob 302 of the scroll bar 301 depends on the number of display screens of the display device 100 and the size of the entire screen. For example, when there are five display screens, the size of the knob 302 is one fifth of the scroll bar, and when there are three screens, the size of the knob 302 is one third of the scroll bar. Here, the “number of display screens” may be determined in advance so that a new screen cannot be added, or may be increased or decreased by the user. When the number of display screens can be increased or decreased by the user, the size of the knob 302 may be switched according to the number of display screens. In consideration of the addition of a new screen, the size of the knob 302 may be set to 1/6 when there are five screens. In this case, the icon (here, object D) on the screen being displayed by the user is scrolled to the sixth screen, and the object D to be moved is arranged on the sixth screen, so that a new A screen can be added. The scroll bar 301 is displayed at the position pointed by the user. The scroll bar 301 is a bar along the direction instructing switching of the display screen 201. In FIG. 3, the scroll bar 301 is displayed vertically from the position pointed by the user. That is, the display screen 201 shown in FIG. 3 is switched on the side of the vertical end portion of the display screen 201.

  In this embodiment, the display screen can be scrolled only in the display area of the scroll bar 301. In the present embodiment, by displaying the scroll bar 301 on the display of the object 202 to be moved, the object 202 can be easily moved to a different area or screen. As in the case where the position where the scroll bar 301 is displayed is away from the position pointed to by the user, the user does not need to move the object D to the display position of the scroll bar in order to scroll while dragging the object D. In this embodiment, since the display screen can be scrolled up and down, the scroll bar 301 is displayed along the vertical direction of the display screen, that is, vertically.

  The screen can be scrolled by moving the knob 302 of the scroll bar 301. For example, in FIG. 3B, the knob 302 moves to the position pointed by the user 400 within the area of the scroll bar 301, and the position pointed by the user overlaps with the knob 302. When the position of the knob 302 moves to the position of X% of the entire scroll bar 301, the display screen 201 also changes to the screen at the position of X% of the entire screen.

  Note that the display method of the knob 302 is not limited to this. For example, the knob 302 indicates that the screen being displayed is a screen where X% of the entire screen exists, and depends on the position indicated by the user. It may not be changed. In this case, when the user 400 moves the object to be moved in the identification area of the scroll bar 301 in parallel with the direction in which the scroll bar 301 is provided, the distance between the position pointed by the user and the position of the knob 302 is not changed. Scrolls.

  Here, the display area of the scroll bar 301 and the recognition area of the scroll bar 301 will be described. The display area of the scroll bar 301 refers to the area of the scroll bar 301 displayed on the display screen 201, and the recognition area of the scroll bar 301 refers to an area where the scroll bar 301 is recognized as being operated. Point to. The recognition area of the scroll bar 301 may be the same as the display area of the scroll bar 301, but in this embodiment, an area larger than the display area of the scroll bar 301, specifically, a predetermined range in the display area. It is assumed that the area is added.

  When the object D is scrolled downward in the display screen 201 from FIG. 3A, each display item (each object 202) is moved upward in the display screen 201 as shown in FIG. In FIG. 3B, thumbnails A, B, and C disappear from the display screen 201, and thumbnails M, N, and O arranged below the thumbnails J, K, and L are displayed on the display screen 201. Yes. Since the object D is a movement target, the area where the object D exists in the display area is blank.

  If the finger is not removed from the object D on the display screen 201 (while the finger is still touched) and the finger is moved in parallel and removed from the recognition area of the scroll bar 301, the system determines that the user 400 has finished the scroll operation and scrolls. Remove the bar 301 from the display screen 201. Then, as shown in FIG. 4A, when the object D is moved between the object M and the object N, the object E moves to the area where the object D exists, and the area where the object E exists. The object F moves to. Similarly to the above, the objects G to M are moved to the area where the previous thumbnail exists, and as a result, the space between the object M and the object N is widened and a free area is formed. In this state, when the finger that dragged the object D is released from the display screen 201, the object D is placed in a free space generated between the object M and the object N, and the display screen as shown in FIG. . With the above method, the procedure for changing the position of the object 202 accompanying the movement of the screen is completed.

  In the above-described embodiment, the arrangement positions of all the objects arranged from the object after the object D to be moved to the position where the object D is inserted (that is, the objects E to M) are changed. It is not limited to this. For example, when the area where the object D is to be inserted is in the same column as the area where the object D was present, the arrangement may be changed only in that column.

  The flow described above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. This flowchart is a processing flow in which the CPU 10 loads a program stored in the ROM 15 to the RAM 11 and executes it.

  First, when the user long-presses the object to be moved, the detection unit 16 detects this, and the CPU 10 specifies long-pressing of the object (S501). That is, when any object among the plurality of objects 202 displayed on the display screen 201 of the display unit 13 is touched for a predetermined time or more (for example, the first threshold or more), it is specified that the object is selected.

  Then, the display device 100 enters the image thumbnail replacement mode, and the CPU 10 displays the scroll bar 301 at the position of the user's finger on the display screen 201 (S502). Then, the CPU 10 determines whether scrolling is not performed on the currently displayed display screen 201 (S503). Here, it is determined whether scrolling is stopped on the display screen 201.

  When the display screen 201 is being scrolled, that is, when the scroll of the scroll bar 301 of the display screen 201 is being received, it is determined that the scroll has not stopped on the display screen (No in S503). . Then, the screen for the moved range is scrolled (S504), and the process returns to S503.

  When it is determined that the display screen 201 is not scrolled, that is, the scrolling is stopped (Yes in S503), the position currently designated by the user is outside the area of the scroll bar 301. Is determined (S505).

  If the position designated by the user is within the area of the scroll bar 301, it is determined that the current position of the user is not outside the area of the scroll bar 301 (No in S505), and the process returns to S503 to scroll the screen. Transition to judgment.

  When the position designated by the user has moved outside the area of the scroll bar 301 (Yes in S505), it is determined that the scrolling has ended, and the scroll bar is removed from the display screen 201 (S506). That is, the movement of the object between the screens is finished, it is determined that the object to be moved is moved on the currently displayed screen, and the scroll bar 301 is deleted from the display screen 201. When it is detected that the object 202 to be moved has been moved to the movement destination in the displayed screen (S507), an empty area is created in the movement destination of the object 202, and when the object is released, the released object is released. The object 202 to be moved is placed at the determined position, and the movement process is terminated (S508). That is, the arrangement position of the object 202 on the display screen is determined according to the position where the object is released. Note that the position where the object is released refers to the position where the touch operation of the object is finished.

  Here, the case where the display order is changed on the display screen in which the object 202 to be moved exists without moving the object 202 between the screens in the flowchart described above will be described. When the scroll bar 301 is displayed, if the object 202 is moved within the display screen without scrolling and the finger is removed outside the display area of the scroll bar 301, the process proceeds from S503 to S505, and Yes in S505. The process proceeds to S506. After the transition to S506, the object 202 to be moved is moved to the position to be changed, and the display order is changed.

  In the present embodiment, the user can easily stop scrolling on an appropriate screen. Specifically, by moving the object that is the movement target in the display area of the scroll bar, the object that is the movement target can be moved to a desired screen. Therefore, it is possible to suppress scrolling of an extra screen, and it is easy to scroll by a necessary amount.

  Further, by displaying the scroll bar, the user can easily recognize the position where the scroll is executed and the position where the scroll is stopped. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the dragging from being canceled due to the designated position being off the screen by mistake.

  Further, in this embodiment, the scroll bar is displayed at the position currently designated by the user (the position where the user is currently touching), so that the user does not move his / her finger to the recognition area of the scroll bar. The object can be moved to a desired display screen.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, it is possible to intuitively recognize at which position on the display screen the object to be moved is located (moving) by the knob 302, so that the desired screen can be easily obtained. The object 202 can be moved.

(Embodiment 2)
In the present embodiment, the process is executed separately for the operation of moving the movement target and the operation of scrolling the screen. In this embodiment, when the user presses and holds an object to be moved for a first threshold or more, the object is set to a replacement mode in which the object can be moved within the display screen. Furthermore, when the user presses and holds for a second threshold value that is greater than the first threshold value, the object is set to a scroll mode that can move between different screens. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same thing as Embodiment 1, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  When the user wants to move the object to be moved across the screen, the user can transition by long pressing the object to be moved.

  In the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, a case in which thumbnails of images are replaced will be described. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a flow of display control according to the present embodiment. The flowchart shown in FIG. 6 is a flow of processing in which the CPU 10 loads a program stored in the ROM 15 to the RAM 11 and executes it.

  First, when the user long-presses the object to be moved for a certain time (first threshold) or longer, the detection unit 16 detects this, and the CPU 10 identifies long-pressing of the object (S601). That is, when any object among the plurality of objects 202 displayed on the display screen 201 of the display unit 13 is touched for the first threshold or more, it is specified that the object is selected.

  Then, the display screen object switching mode is entered (S602). By shifting to the replacement mode, the user can replace objects in the screen.

  Next, it is determined whether there is an instruction to move the object to be moved in the replacement mode. Specifically, it is determined whether or not the moving distance of the object that has been pressed long is within a predetermined range (S603). In addition, what is necessary is just to set suitably the distance determined to be a movement of an object within a predetermined range.

  When the user moves the object to be moved within the currently displayed screen, that is, when the moving distance of the object that is being pressed exceeds the predetermined range (No in S603), It can be determined that the movement is instructed, and the process proceeds to S610. The object to be moved is moved to the designated location (S610), a free area is created at the destination, the object to be moved is placed in the free area (S611), and the process proceeds to S612.

  When the user does not move the object to be moved within the currently displayed screen, that is, when the moving distance of the object being pressed is within a predetermined range (No in S603), the object is selected. It is determined whether the predetermined time has elapsed (S604). Specifically, after shifting to the replacement mode, it is determined whether the object to be moved has been pressed for a predetermined time (second threshold) or more (S604). The second threshold value may be the same as or different from the first threshold value. In the present embodiment, the time after the transition to the replacement mode is counted in S604. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the accumulated time from S601 may be counted. In this case, a time longer than the first threshold may be set as the second threshold. When it is detected that the object to be moved has been pressed for a certain time or more, that is, more than the second threshold (Yes in S604), the screen shifts to the screen scroll mode and the scroll bar 301 is displayed at the position of the user's finger. (S605). Then, S606 to S611 are executed. Note that steps S606 to S611 are the same as the processing of steps S503 to S508 in the first embodiment, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

  In step S612, it is determined whether it is detected that the finger has been removed from the identification area of the scroll bar 301 on the display screen 201. If it is detected in S612 that the finger has been removed from the identification area of the scroll bar 301 of the display unit (YES in S612), the replacement mode is terminated and the process is terminated (S613). If it is not detected in S612 that the finger has been removed from the identification area of the scroll bar 301 of the display unit (No in S612), the process returns to S603.

  In the present embodiment, when the object 202 displayed on the display screen 201 is pressed for the second threshold or more, it is determined that the scroll mode is entered, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when a specific gesture such as clicking with two fingers, sliding with two fingers, drawing a circle, or the like is executed, it may be determined to shift to the scroll mode. In addition, a function button for controlling the replacement mode may be displayed on the display unit 13 and a click on the function button may be used as a trigger, or a depression of another button included in the display device 100 may be used as a trigger. In the present embodiment, the user moves the moving object across the screen and the process of moving the moving object to another area in the screen according to the time for which the moving object is long pressed (the time when the object to be moved is selected). You can select the mode that suits your purpose. Even if the scroll mode is ended by mistake, the scroll mode can be entered again from the middle.

(Other embodiments)
The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above. For example, the position where the scroll bar is displayed may be displayed in the vicinity of the position touched by the user as shown in FIG. 7 instead of the position of the user's finger (touched position). Specifically, the display position of the scroll bar 301A may be, for example, close to the position touched by the user without overlapping the object. Thereby, it can suppress that the displayed object becomes difficult to see.

  In the embodiment described above, the scroll bar 301 is a bar extending in the vertical direction of the display screen 201, specifically, a bar extending from one end to the other end of the display screen 201, but is not limited thereto. It is not a thing. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the scroll bar 301B may be shorter than the length of the display screen 201 in the vertical direction. Thereby, it can suppress that a finger | toe remove | deviates from the display screen 201. FIG. In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, the scroll bar 301B may be thickened so that the scroll area is widened so that the scroll bar 301B is not easily disengaged from the display area of the scroll bar 301B.

  In the above-described embodiment, the scroll bar 301 is displayed vertically. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, a scroll bar 301C extending in the horizontal direction may be displayed on a screen that scrolls horizontally. Further, as shown in FIG. 9B, a scroll bar 301D including a scroll bar extending vertically and a scroll bar extending horizontally may be displayed. Thereby, the target object can be moved in both the vertical direction and the horizontal direction.

  The object that controls scrolling is not limited to a scroll bar. For example, as shown to Fig.10 (a), the button which can move a screen up and down may be included. A button 1001 shown in FIG. 10A is a button having a function of moving the screen up, and a button 1002 is a button having a function of moving the screen downward. When the user points to the button 1001, the screen moves up, and when the user points to the button 1002, the screen moves down. Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 10B, when the user shifts to the scroll mode, all the screens existing during the display operation may be reduced and displayed. The reduced screens 1003 to 1006 are obtained by reducing the screens existing during the display operation, and the empty screen 1007 is a newly added empty screen. The user can scroll the object to be moved up and down between the displayed screens. By stopping for a certain period of time on a specific screen, the user can determine the destination screen of the object to be moved and scroll. It suffices to end the mode. In this case, if an empty screen 1007 is not selected, the screen 1007 is not newly added.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case of moving one object has been described as an example. However, two or more objects may be selected and moved.

  The above-described embodiment can also be realized by executing the following processing. That is, software (program) that realizes the functions of the above-described embodiments is supplied to a system or apparatus via a network or various storage media, and a computer (CPU, MPU, etc.) of the system or apparatus reads the program. It is a process to be executed. Further, the program may be executed by one computer or may be executed in conjunction with a plurality of computers. Further, it is not necessary to implement all of the above-described processing by software, and part or all of the processing may be realized by hardware such as an ASIC. Further, the CPU is not limited to the one that performs all the processing by one CPU, and a plurality of CPUs may perform the processing while appropriately cooperating.
