Description

  The present invention relates to an apparatus for controlling scrolling of a screen.

  In recent years, multifunction devices having various functions such as copying, scanning, faxing, network printing, and document servers have become widespread. Such a multi-function peripheral is sometimes called “MFP (Multi Function Peripherals)”.

  In addition, the performance of hardware such as ADF (Auto Document Feeder), print engine, CPU (Central Processing Unit), RAM (Random Access Memory), and hard disk is improved, and the environment for software development is improved. Accordingly, various incidental functions used together with the above-described functions have been developed.

  For example, as an additional function of the copy function (so-called optional function), the “background adjustment function” that removes the so-called show-through, the “automatic rotation function” that automatically rotates the scanned image, and multiple original sheets Functions such as a “continuous reading function” for continuously scanning and a “book original function” for so-called book finishing are provided.

  In this way, multifunction devices are becoming increasingly multifunctional. As the number of functions increases, the user can cause the MFP to execute various processes.

  However, the more processing variations that can be executed, the more complicated the operation method of the multifunction peripheral becomes.

  For example, in the case of a multifunction machine that employs a GUI (Graphical User Interface), icons for each optional function are displayed on the display, but the number of icons that can be displayed on the display at a time is limited. To increase the number of icons displayed on the display at a time, the size of the icon must be reduced. This makes it difficult for the user to see the icon.

  As described above, the more optional functions, the more difficult it is for the user to search for icons of optional functions to be used.

  The icon must be displayed in a certain size. Therefore, there are cases where all icons cannot be displayed on the display at once. In this case, as described in Patent Document 1, the icons are displayed in order by scrolling the screen.

JP 2006-243952 A

  The user must perform some operation in order to scroll the screen. The number of operations is preferably as small as possible.

  In view of such a problem, an object of the present invention is to reduce the number of operations compared to the conventional method when a user searches for a target icon while scrolling a plurality of icons part by part.

  A display processing apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention is a display processing apparatus that displays a row in which a plurality of icons are arranged in a specific area of a display while scrolling a part of the line in accordance with a user operation. When any one of the icons displayed in the specific area is selected, the column is displayed so that the selected icon is arranged at the end of the specific area. Display control means.

  Preferably, the display control unit redisplays the column so that the selected icon is arranged at an end of the specific region on the scroll direction side of the column.

  Alternatively, the display control means, when the second icon that is an icon other than the selected icon among the plurality of icons is selected before the selected icon is selected, The column is displayed again so that the selected icon is arranged at an end of the specific area on the second icon side of the second icon and the selected icon.

  A display processing apparatus according to another aspect of the present invention displays a column in which a plurality of icons for selecting a function to be set are arranged in a specific area of a display while scrolling a part in accordance with a user operation. A display processing device, wherein one of the icons displayed in the specific area is selected from the plurality of icons, and the function related to the selected icon is set In addition, if the setting of the function relating to the selected icon is performed and the contents of the setting of the other function are naturally determined, the icon of the other function is arranged at the end of the specific area. Display control means for redisplaying the columns.

  Preferably, the display control means displays the selected icon and the icon of the other function in the specific area, and the icon of the other function is more than the selected icon. When the column is on the scroll direction side, the column is redisplayed so that the icon of the other function is arranged at the end on the direction side.

  Alternatively, the display control means redisplays the column so that the selected icon is arranged in the specific area together with the icons of the other functions.

  A display processing apparatus according to another aspect of the present invention is a display processing apparatus that displays on a display while scrolling a screen in which a plurality of groups of one or a plurality of icons are arranged. When any one of icons displayed in the specific area is selected, a group to which the selected icon belongs among the plurality of groups is arranged at an end of the specific area. , Display the screen again.

  According to the present invention, when a user searches for a target icon while scrolling a plurality of icons one by one, the number of operations can be reduced as compared with the conventional method.

Optional functions such as a “book original function” for so-called book finishing are appropriately combined.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of the badge selection screen 2. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the multifunction machine 1. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the relationship between the function badge row 300 and the badge selection screen 2. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the badge selection screen 2 when only a part of the functional badges 3 at both ends appear.

  Next, the badge selection screen 2 shown in FIG. 5 will be described together with its display method and operation method.

  When the user performs a predetermined operation, the controller 1a activates the badge selection screen display program 10. For example, when the user presses one of the “copy”, “fax / scan”, and “box” function keys in the keyboard 1h2, the badge selection screen display program 10 is activated.

  According to the badge selection screen display program 10, the badge selection screen data generation unit 101, the badge selection screen display control unit 102, the motion type determination unit 103, the slide gauge position determination unit 104, the badge position determination unit 105, the badge shown in FIG. An equal adjustment position determination unit 106, a screen data storage unit 107, a start point end point storage unit 108, and the like are realized.

  Hereinafter, the processing content of the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 or the start point / end point storage unit 108, the badge selection screen 2, and the like will be described by taking the case where the “copy” function key is pressed as an example.

  First, the badge selection screen 2 will be described. As shown in FIG. 5, the badge selection screen 2 has three areas: a function badge area 2A, a scroll track 2B, and a slide gauge movement area 2C.

  A function badge row 300 is displayed in the function badge area 2A. The function badge row 300 is a map composed of a plurality of function badges 3 arranged in a row in the horizontal direction. Hereinafter, a case where 26 function badges 3 are provided will be described as an example. In addition, the function badges 3 may be described separately from the “function badge 3A”, “function badge 3B”,..., “Function badge 3Z” in order from the left.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the height (length in the vertical direction) of the function badge row 300 is much lower than the height of the function badge area 2A. However, the width (the length in the horizontal direction) of the function badge row 300 is considerably longer than the width of the function badge area 2A. Therefore, only a part of the function badge row 300 appears in the function badge area 2A.

  However, as will be described later, the user can view the remaining part of the function badge row 300 by scrolling the function badge row 300 in the horizontal direction in the function badge area 2A.

  The function badge 3 is an icon representing an optional function, and one function badge 3 is prepared for each optional function provided in the multifunction device 1. In the present embodiment, since the “copy” function key is pressed, the function badges 3 of optional functions used together with the copy function are arranged in the function badge column 300.

  In addition, the pattern of the function badge 3 may be changed according to the content of the option function setting. However, in FIG. 7, the pattern of the function badge 3 is omitted.

  Each optional function is divided into any one of a plurality of categories according to its contents. The optional functions belonging to the same category are grouped into one group. The function badges 3 belonging to the same group are continuously arranged.

  A plurality of markers 4 are arranged in the horizontal direction on the scroll track 2B. The marker 4 is an icon. The number of markers 4 is the same as the number of function badges 3. The function badge 3A, the function badge 3B,..., And the function badge 3Z correspond in order from the left marker 4. Hereinafter, each marker 4 may be described separately from the “marker 4A”, “marker 4B”,..., “Marker 4Z” in order from the left. Therefore, the marker 4A, the marker 4B,..., The marker 4Z correspond to the function badge 3A, the function badge 3B,.

  The width of the scroll track 2B is almost the same as the width of the badge selection screen 2. Therefore, the user can view all the parts of the scroll track 2B at a time.

  The slide gauge movement area 2C is provided immediately below the scroll track 2B. Similar to the width of the scroll track 2B, the width of the slide gauge moving area 2C is substantially the same as the width of the badge selection screen 2.

  The slide gauge 5 includes a scroll bar 51 and a window 52 (see FIG. 5). The scroll bar 51 is an icon that moves in the left-right direction (lateral direction, width direction) in the slide gauge movement area 2C in accordance with a user operation. Therefore, the scroll bar 51 moves in parallel along the lower side of the scroll track 2B according to the user's operation. For simplicity of explanation, in this embodiment, the scroll bar 51 is not moved in the vertical direction.

  The window 52 corresponds to a reduced version of the function badge area 2A. The window 52 is provided immediately above the scroll bar 51. The height of the window 52 is slightly higher than the height of the scroll track 2B. Further, the width of the window 52 is slightly longer than the width of the scroll bar 51. Therefore, the window 52 can surround some markers 4 in the scroll track 2B, which are directly above the scroll bar 51.

  The window 52 is fixed to the scroll bar 51. Therefore, the window 52 moves together when the scroll bar 51 moves. The user can change the marker 4 surrounded by the window 52 by operating the scroll bar 51.

  In the function badge area 2A, as described above, only a part of the function badge column 300, that is, only a part of the 26 function badges 3 is displayed. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, only the function badge 3 corresponding to the marker 4 surrounded by the window 52 is displayed in the function badge area 2A. As the scroll bar 51 moves, the marker 4 enclosed by the window 52 changes, and the function badge 3 displayed in the function badge area 2A also changes.

  As described above, as the scroll bar 51 moves, the function badge row 300 scrolls in the function badge area 2A.

  Next, the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 or the start point / end point storage unit 108 shown in FIG. 6 will be described. The process of displaying the badge selection screen 2 on the liquid crystal display 1h0 is realized by the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 or the storage unit 108 such as the start point / end point.

  The screen data storage unit 107 stores image data for displaying each object constituting the badge selection screen 2. These image data are used by the badge selection screen data generation unit 101.

  Of the function badges 3 constituting the function badge column 300, the function badge 3 that is the start point badge and the function badge 3 that is the end point badge are stored in the start point / end point storage unit 108.

  The “starting point badge” is on the side opposite to the direction of movement of the scroll bar 51 of the two function badges 3 arranged at both ends of the function badge area 2A at the start of scrolling of the function badge row 300. It is a certain function badge 3.

  That is, for example, when the scroll bar 51 starts moving rightward from the state where the function badges 3H to 3M are arranged and stopped in the function badge area 2A as shown in FIG. 7, the function badge 3H becomes the start badge. Become. When the movement starts to the left, the function badge 3M becomes the start point badge.

  The “end badge” is the function badge 3 at the end in the direction of movement of the scroll bar 51 among the function badges 3 constituting the function badge row 300.

  That is, when the scroll bar 51 moves to the right, the function badge 3Z is an end point badge, and when it moves to the left, the function badge 3A is an end point badge. Hereinafter, the direction of movement of the scroll bar 51 is referred to as “scroll bar movement direction”.

  Further, the starting point / end point storage unit 108 stores the scroll bar moving direction. When the scroll bar 51 is operated by the user and starts to move, the moving direction of the scroll bar at this time is stored in the storage unit 108 such as the start point / end point.

  When the scroll bar 51 stops and starts moving again, the scroll bar moving direction, the start point badge, and the end point badge are described above according to the position of the function badge 3 at the time of stop and the direction of movement of the scroll bar 51. The scroll bar moving direction, start point badge, and end point badge stored in the storage unit 108 such as the start point / end point are updated.

  In addition, a starting point badge, an end point badge, and a scroll bar moving direction stored in the starting point / end point storing unit 108 may be changed by a badge adjusting position determining unit 106 to be described later.

  The badge selection screen data generation unit 101 generates bitmap data of the badge selection screen 2 in a state corresponding to the operation by the user.

  When the function key is pressed, bitmap data of the badge selection screen 2 corresponding to the function related to the function key is generated. However, in this case, the slide gauge 5 is arranged at a default position. Therefore, the function badge 3 arranged on the badge selection screen 2 is also determined by itself.

  When the user performs an operation of moving the scroll bar 51, the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 corrects the bitmap data of the badge selection screen 2 changed according to the operation. This will be described later.

  The badge selection screen display control unit 102 displays the badge selection screen 2 on the liquid crystal display 1h0 based on the bitmap data generated or modified by the badge selection screen data generation unit 101.

  In order to scroll the function badge row 300, the user touches the position where the scroll bar 51 is displayed on the touch panel 1h1 with the finger or a pen and slides it to the right or left while looking at the badge selection screen 2. . The operation “slide” corresponds to an operation of dragging an object with a mouse.

  Alternatively, when the user selects an optional function, the user taps the function badge 3 corresponding to the optional function. The operation “tap” corresponds to an operation of clicking an object with a mouse.

  While operating the scroll bar 51, the user finds the function badge 3 of an optional function that the user wants to use or set. Then, the function badge 3 is tapped.

  Then, the multifunction device 1 changes the setting value of the optional function. For example, if the function badge 3 is for switching whether to use the optional function, that is, “on” and “off”, the multifunction device 1 Change the setting value that indicates whether to use the optional function. The function badge 3 tapped most recently is displayed in a different form from the other function badges 3. In the present embodiment, the most recently tapped function badge 3 is displayed using gray as the background color.

  Alternatively, the multifunction device 1 displays a dialog box on the badge selection screen 2 for inputting setting values of some items related to the optional function. Here, the user inputs the value of each item. Then, the multifunction device 1 closes the dialog box and changes the setting value of each item to the input value.

  The touch panel 1h1 detects the touched position at each time. Then, the touch panel 1h1 notifies the controller 1a of the detected position at each time. Hereinafter, the touched position is referred to as a “contact position”.

  The motion type discriminating unit 103 discriminates the type and target of the operation (motion) performed by the user based on the detection result notified from the touch panel 1h1 as follows.

  When the distance between the first contact position and the subsequent arbitrary contact position (hereinafter referred to as “contact displacement distance”) while being touched is equal to or greater than a predetermined distance, the motion type determination unit 103. Determines that the operation is “slide”. Then, the object (for example, the scroll bar 51) arranged at the first contact position is determined as the operation target.

  Therefore, the motion type discriminating unit 103 discriminates that the operation is “slide” when another contact position that is more than a predetermined distance from the first contact position is detected.

  On the other hand, when the contact displacement distance is less than the predetermined value, the motion type determination unit 103 determines that the operation is “tap”. Then, the object (for example, any one of the function badges 3) arranged at the first contact position is determined as the operation target.

  Accordingly, when the finger or the like is separated from the touch panel 1h1 without detecting another contact position that is a predetermined distance or more away from the first contact position, the motion type determination unit 103 determines that the operation is “tap”. Determine.

  The slide gauge position determination unit 104 determines the position of the slide gauge 5 at each time while being touched based on the result detected by the touch panel 1h1.

  For example, when the user slides while touching the center of the scroll bar 51 and Xc is detected as the X coordinate value of the contact position at a certain time Tc, the center of the scroll bar 51 becomes the coordinate (Xc, Yo). The position is determined to be the position of the slide gauge 5 at time Tc. As described above, since the slide gauge 5 does not move in the vertical direction, “Yo” is a predetermined value. Alternatively, the position of the scroll bar 51 may be determined based on the amount and direction of finger movement.

  Based on the position of the slide gauge 5 determined by the slide gauge position determination unit 104, the badge position determination unit 105 determines the function badges 3 to be displayed in the function badge area 2A and their positions as follows.

  When the position of the slide gauge 5 is determined, the position of the window 52 is naturally determined. The badge position determination unit 105 identifies a portion of the function badge row 300 surrounded by the window 52. In the identified part, a plurality of markers 4 are arranged in a horizontal row.

  As described above, the window 52 corresponds to an area obtained by reducing the function badge area 2A. Therefore, the badge position determination unit 105 determines the function badge 3 corresponding to each marker 4 arranged in the specified portion as the function badge 3 to be displayed in the function badge area 2A. Furthermore, the badge position determination unit 105 enlarges the specified part to a predetermined magnification (so as to be the same size as the function badge area 2A) and arranges each part included in the specified part when it is arranged in the function badge area 2A. The position of the marker 4 is calculated. Then, the calculated position of each marker 4 is determined as the position of each function badge 3 corresponding to each marker 4.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 5, when all the markers 4A, 4B,..., And 4F are surrounded by the window 52, the badge position determination unit 105 sequentially sets the function badges 3A, 3B,. When all parts of are displayed, it is determined.

  Alternatively, if the right half of the marker 4B, all the markers 4C, 4D,..., And 4G and the left half of the marker 4H are surrounded by the window 52 as shown in FIG. The unit 105 determines that the right half of the function badge 3B, all the function badges 3C, 3D,..., And 3G and the left half of the function badge 3H are displayed in order from the left.

  The badge selection screen data generation unit 101 corrects the bitmap data of the badge selection screen 2 so that the slide gauge 5 and the function badge 3 are arranged as determined by the slide gauge position determination unit 104 and the badge position determination unit 105. To do.

  Then, the badge selection screen display control unit 102 redisplays the badge selection screen 2 on the liquid crystal display 1h0 based on the bitmap data corrected by the badge selection screen data generation unit 101.

  In addition, the start point / end point storage unit 108 stores the scroll bar moving direction when the scroll bar 51 starts to move. Further, the start point badge and the end point badge are stored in accordance with the moving direction of the scroll bar and the arrangement of the function badge 3 immediately before the start of scrolling.

  That is, when the scroll bar 51 starts to move in the right direction, the start point / end point storage unit 108 stores the right direction as the scroll bar moving direction, and the function badge at the left end of the function badge area 2A immediately before the start of scrolling. 3 is stored as the start point badge, and the function badge 3 at the right end of the function badge column 300 (that is, the function badge 3Z) is stored as the end point badge. Alternatively, when the scroll bar 51 starts to move to the left, the left direction is stored as the scroll bar moving direction, and the function badge 3 at the right end of the function badge area 2A immediately before the start of scrolling is stored as the start point badge. The function badge 3 at the left end of the function badge column 300 (that is, the function badge 3A) is stored as the end point badge.

[Adjustment of the position of the function badge row 300 when the function badge 3 is tapped]
FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of automatic shift processing. 10-15 is a figure which shows the example of the badge selection screen 2. FIG.

  When the user scrolls the function badge column 300 and finds a function badge 3 of an optional function that the user wants to use or set, the user taps the function badge 3. Then, as described above, the setting value of the optional function is changed.

  Further, the position of each functional badge 3 and the position of the slide gauge 5 are adjusted by the steps shown in FIG. 9 by the respective units of the multifunction machine 1 shown in FIG.

  The badge adjustment position determination unit 106 checks the start point badge, end point badge, and scroll bar moving direction stored in the start point / end point storage unit 108 (# 601 in FIG. 9).

  Furthermore, the badge position adjustment unit 106 determines the position of each function badge 3 so that the tapped function badge 3 is arranged at the end opposite to the scroll bar movement direction in the function badge area 2A. Redo (# 602). The position of the slide gauge 5 is re-determined so as to point to the function badge 3 arranged in the function badge area 2A (# 603).

  Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, when the badge selection screen 2 is displayed in a state where the function badges 3A to 3F are arranged in the function badge area 2A, the scroll bar 51 starts to move rightward. .

  Then, the right direction, the function badge 3A, and the function badge 3Z are stored in the start point / end point storage unit 108 as the scroll bar moving direction, the start point badge, and the end point badge, respectively.

  Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, the user stops the operation of the scroll bar 51 when the function badge 3B to the function badge 3G are arranged in the function badge area 2A, taps the function badge 3E, and is necessary for setting. When the operation is performed, the position of each function badge 3 is determined so that the function badge 3E is arranged at the left end of the function badge area 2A as shown in FIG.

  However, the badge adjustment position determination unit 106 re-determines the position of each function badge 3 so that the six function badges 3 are always arranged in the function badge area 2A. If it becomes less than 6, leave it in the state before it was tapped.

  That is, for example, it is assumed that the scroll bar 51 continues to slide rightward from the state shown in FIG. 11, and the function badge 3Z, which is an end point badge, appears at the right end of the function badge area 2A as shown in FIG. The user cannot scroll the function badge row 300 any more.

  Here, according to the above-described method, when the user taps the function badge 3W, the position of each function badge 3 should be determined as shown in FIG. However, if it does so, the function badge 3 arrange | positioned in the function badge area 2A will be less than six. Therefore, when any one of the function badges 3 is tapped immediately after the end point badge appears and the scrolling of the function badge row 300 stops, the badge etc. adjustment position determination unit 106 determines the position of the function badge 3 and the slide gauge 5. Do not re-decision.

  Then, the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 corrects the bitmap data of the badge selection screen 2 so that the slide gauge 5 and the function badge 3 are arranged at the positions re-determined by the badge adjustment position determination unit 106. To do. The badge selection screen display control unit 102 redisplays the badge selection screen 2 on the liquid crystal display 1h0 based on the corrected bitmap data (# 604).

  However, when the end badge appears and the scrolling of the function badge row 300 stops and the user taps one of the function badges 3 (Yes in # 605), the badge adjustment position determination unit 106 stores the start point end point storage unit, etc. The scroll bar moving direction, start point badge, and end point badge stored in 108 are changed as follows (# 606).

  Reverse the scroll bar movement direction. That is, if the scroll bar moving direction is currently the left direction, the scroll bar is changed to the right direction. The end point badge and the start point badge are changed to the first function badge 3 and the last function badge 3 in the scroll bar moving direction after the change among the function badges 3 constituting the function badge row 300, respectively.

  Therefore, for example, when the function badge 3W is tapped after the display of the function badge 3 transitions from the state of FIG. 11 to the state of FIG. 12, the scroll bar moving direction, the start point badge, and the end point badge are The direction, function badge 3Z, and function badge 3A are changed.

  Then, when the user subsequently taps one of the function badges 3, the process shown in FIG. 9 is executed from the beginning.

  However, since scrolling stops when function badge row 300 reaches the end and any function badge 3 is tapped, the scroll bar moving direction, start point badge, and end point badge are changed. The method of transition of 2 is different from the above example.

  Here, the case where the function badge row 300 stops in the state shown in FIG. 12, the function badge 3W is tapped, and then the function badge 3V is tapped as shown in FIG. 14 will be described as an example.

  As described above, the badge etc. adjustment position determination unit 106 determines the position of each function badge 3 so that the tapped function badge 3 is arranged at the end opposite to the scroll bar moving direction in the function badge area 2A. Is re-determined (# 602). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 15, the badge etc. adjustment position determination unit 106 arranges the function badge 3V at the end opposite to the scroll bar moving direction in the function badge area 2A (that is, after the change), that is, the right end. The position of each function badge 3 is determined again. The processing after step # 603 is as described above. In other words, the adjustment position determination unit 106 such as the badge, the badge selection screen data generation unit 101, and the badge selection screen display control unit 102 re-determine the position of the slide gauge 5 according to the new position of the function badge 3 and the badge. Processing for redisplaying the selection screen 2 is performed (# 603 to # 606).

  When the function badge 3 is tapped, the position of each function badge 3 constituting the function badge row 300 is thus shifted on the function badge area 2A.

  As shown in FIG. 12, when another function badge 3 (for example, function badge 3W) is tapped immediately after the end point badge is displayed, the function badge until another function badge 3 is tapped next time. Instead of waiting for the automatic shift of the row 300, the automatic shift may be performed immediately so that the other function badge 3 is arranged at the end.

  FIG. 16 is a flowchart for explaining an example of the overall processing flow related to display in the multifunction device 1. FIG. 17 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of setting input reception processing.

  Next, an overall processing flow in the multifunction machine 1 when the touch panel 1h1 is operated will be described with reference to a flowchart of FIG.

  When the user performs a predetermined operation such as pressing the “copy” function key, the multifunction device 1 displays the badge selection screen 2 (# 11 in FIG. 16).

  Here, the user can make settings related to the optional function. The multi-function device 1 executes processing for accepting input of setting values (# 12). This process is executed, for example, according to the procedure shown in FIG.

  When the user slides the scroll bar 51 (Yes in # 701 in FIG. 17), the multi function device 1 scrolls the function badge row 300 (# 702) and changes the direction of movement of the scroll bar 51, that is, the scroll bar moving direction. Store (# 703).

  Alternatively, when the user taps the function badge 3 (No in # 701, Yes in # 704), the multifunction device 1 selects a badge for inputting a setting value of an optional function related to the function badge 3 as necessary. It is displayed on the screen 2 (# 705). When the user inputs a setting value and taps an OK button in the dialog box (Yes in # 706), the multi-function device 1 accepts the input setting value (# 707). Thereby, the setting operation for this optional function is completed.

  If the setting value can be changed by simply tapping the function badge 3, the multifunction device 1 accepts the setting value without displaying a dialog box (# 707).

  If the multifunction device 1 stores the scroll bar moving direction (Yes in # 708), the function badge 3 tapped after receiving the set value is the scroll bar moving direction in the function badge area 2A. The function badge row 300 is shifted (scrolled) so as to be arranged at the end of the number (# 710). The details of the process of shifting the function badge row 300 are as described above with reference to FIG.

  If the scroll bar moving direction is not stored (No in # 708), the multi function device 1 determines whether or not another function badge 3 is tapped before the function badge 3 is tapped. Process as follows.

  When another function badge 3 is tapped (Yes in # 709), the multi function device 1 considers that the direction from the other function badge 3 to this function badge 3 is the scroll bar moving direction. For example, when the function badge 3B is tapped before the function badge 3D is tapped, the multifunction device 1 determines that the direction from the function badge 3B to the function badge 3D, that is, the right direction is the scroll bar moving direction. Consider. Then, the function badge row 300 is shifted (scrolled) so that the most recently tapped function badge 3 (in this example, the function badge 3D) is arranged at the end of the scroll bar moving direction (in this example, the right direction). ) (# 710).

  If another function badge 3 has not been tapped (No in # 709), the multi-function device 1 does not shift the function badge row 300.

  Alternatively, when the user performs a cancel operation while the dialog box is displayed (No in # 706, Yes in # 711), the multifunction device 1 resets the content input by the user in the dialog box, etc. Then, processing for cancellation is performed (# 712).

  The processes of steps # 701 to # 712 are appropriately executed according to the operation by the user until the user performs a predetermined operation such as pressing the start button.

  When the user performs a predetermined operation such as pressing the start button (Yes in # 713), the multi-function device 1 ends the process for accepting the input of the option function setting value.

  Returning to FIG. 16, when the multifunction device 1 completes the input of the set value (Yes in # 13), the badge selection screen 2 is closed (# 14), and the received set value is stored in a predetermined area. (# 15) The job is executed based on the received set value (# 16).

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating a second example of the functional configuration of the multifunction machine 1. FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating an example of the badge selection screen 2.

  In the first embodiment, the function badge row 300 is constituted by the function badges 3 arranged in a straight line. Therefore, when the function badge 3Z appears at the right end of the function badge area 2A, the function badge row 300 cannot be scrolled further to the left. Similarly, when the function badge 3A appears at the left end of the function badge area 2A, the function badge row 300 can no longer be scrolled to the right.

  However, in the second embodiment, the function badge 3A and the function badge 3Z are connected, and the function badge row 300 is like a belt of a belt conveyor. Therefore, the function badge row 300 does not stop scrolling even if the user continues the slide operation as it is after the function badge 3Z appears at the right end of the function badge area 2A while scrolling leftward. And while operation continues, function badge 3A, 3B, ... appears one by one.

  The hardware configuration of the multifunction machine 1 in the second embodiment is basically the same as that in the first embodiment, and is as described with reference to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. However, a badge selection screen display program 12 is installed in the ROM 1c or the mass storage device 1d instead of the badge selection screen display program 10 (see FIG. 6). The badge selection screen display program 12 includes a badge selection screen data generation unit 121, a badge selection screen display control unit 122, a motion type determination unit 123, a slide gauge position determination unit 124, a badge position determination unit 125, a badge, and the like shown in FIG. This is a program for realizing the adjustment position determination unit 126, the screen data storage unit 127, the movement direction storage unit 128, and the like.

  Hereinafter, the processing content of each part shown in FIG. 18 is demonstrated centering on the point which is different from 1st embodiment. Description of points common to the first embodiment is omitted.

  The roles of the badge selection screen data generation unit 121 to the screen data storage unit 127 are the same as those of the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 to the screen data storage unit 107 (see FIG. 6) of the first embodiment, respectively.

  That is, the screen data storage unit 127 stores image data for displaying each object constituting the badge selection screen 2.

  The badge selection screen data generation unit 121 uses the data stored in the screen data storage unit 127, and based on the content determined by the slide gauge position determination unit 124 and the badge position determination unit 125, the bit of the badge selection screen 2 Generate map data.

  The badge selection screen display control unit 122 displays the badge selection screen 2 on the liquid crystal display 1h0 based on the data generated by the badge selection screen data generation unit 121.

  The motion type determination unit 123 determines the type and target of the operation performed by the user.

  The badge position adjustment unit 126 and the moving direction storage unit 128 perform processing for adjusting the position of the function badge row 300 in the function badge area 2A when the function badge 3 is tapped.

  The moving direction storage unit 128 stores the scroll bar moving direction. Unlike the storage unit 108 such as the start point / end point of the first embodiment, the movement direction storage unit 128 may not store the start point badge and the end point badge.

  Similar to the badge adjustment position determination unit 106 of the first embodiment, the badge adjustment position determination unit 126 functions when the function badge 3 is tapped and a necessary operation for setting an optional function is performed. Then, the position of the slide gauge 5 is determined again. However, the determination method is different from the first embodiment.

  When the function badge 3 is tapped, the badge adjustment position determination unit 126 determines the position of the function badge 3 in the function badge area 2A according to the scroll bar moving direction stored in the storage unit 108 such as the start point and the end point. Re-determine as follows.

  When the scroll bar moving direction is the right direction, the badge adjustment position determination unit 126 determines the position of each function badge 3 so that the tapped function badge 3 is arranged at the left end of the function badge area 2A. . This is the same determination method used in the first embodiment. Thus, for example, when the function badges 3B to 3G are arranged in the function badge area 2A as shown in FIG. 10 and the function badge 3E is tapped when the scroll bar moving direction is the right direction, as shown in FIG. As described above, the position of each function badge 3 is determined so that the function badge 3E is arranged at the left end of the function badge area 2A.

  However, in the second embodiment, as described above, the function badge row 300 is looped like a belt of a belt conveyor. Therefore, when the function badge 3W is tapped when the scroll bar moving direction is the right direction and the function badge 3Z appears at the right end as shown in FIG. 12, for example, when the function badge 3W is tapped, the badge etc. adjustment position determination unit 126 Thus, the position of each function badge 3 is determined again so that the function badge 3W is arranged at the left end.

  Further, the badge adjustment position determining unit 126 re-determines the position of the slide gauge 5 so as to point to the function badge 3 arranged in the function badge area 2A.

  Then, the badge selection screen data generation unit 121 corrects the bitmap data of the badge selection screen 2 so that the slide gauge 5 and the function badge 3 are arranged at the position re-determined by the badge adjustment position determination unit 126. To do. The badge selection screen display control unit 122 redisplays the badge selection screen 2 on the liquid crystal display 1h0 based on the corrected bitmap data.

  In the second embodiment, regardless of which function badge 3 is arranged in the function badge area 2A, the function badge row 300 can be scrolled in either the left or right direction. Therefore, when the scroll bar moving direction is not yet determined, for example, when the badge selection screen 2 is displayed and the slide gauge 5 is not yet operated, the automatic adjustment by the badge position adjustment unit 126 is not performed. It may be.

  20-24 is a figure which shows the example of the badge selection screen 2. FIG. Next, an example of transition of the badge selection screen 2 in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  Assume that the badge selection screen 2 is displayed on the liquid crystal display 1h0 in a state where the function badges 3Z, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3E are arranged in the function badge area 2A in order from the left. Thereafter, when the slide gauge 5 is not yet operated, even if the function badge 3B is tapped as shown in FIG. 20, the function badge row 300 is not scrolled.

  However, when the function badge 3 </ b> A is tapped as shown in FIG. 21, it is considered that the user wants to see the left side of the function badge row 300. That is, it is considered that the user will then slide the scroll bar 51 to the left.

  Therefore, the badge adjustment position determining unit 126 stores the left direction as the scroll bar moving direction in the start point / end point storage unit 108, and the tapped function badge 3A is arranged at the right end of the function badge area 2A as shown in FIG. Then, the position of each function badge 3 is determined again. Then, the badge selection screen 2 is displayed again by the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 and the badge selection screen display control unit 102.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 23, when the user slides the scroll bar 51 in the opposite direction, that is, in the right direction, the function badges 3W, 3X,..., 3B are displayed in the function badge area 2A. The equal adjustment position determination unit 126, the badge selection screen data generation unit 121, and the badge selection screen display control unit 122 select the badge in a state where the tapped function badge 3B is arranged at the left end of the function badge area 2A as shown in FIG. Display screen 2 again.

  Note that the overall processing procedure in the second embodiment is as described above with reference to FIGS.

  According to the first embodiment and the second embodiment, when the user searches for the target function badge 3 while partially scrolling the function badge row 300 composed of a plurality of function batches 3, the number of operations is conventionally set. Can also be reduced.

[Additional examples]
25 to 28 are diagrams showing examples of the badge selection screen 2.

  6 may further determine the position of each functional badge 3 as follows.

  When the setting value of an optional function is determined, the setting value of any one of the other optional functions may be automatically determined. In this case, the badge etc. adjustment position determination unit 106 adjusts the position of each functional badge 3 as follows. Hereinafter, the option function whose setting value is determined first is referred to as “first option function”, and the option function whose setting value is automatically determined when the setting value of the first option function is determined is referred to as “second option function”. "Optional function".

  When the function badge 3 of the first optional function is tapped and the set value is determined, the adjustment position determination unit 106 such as a badge checks the position of the function badge 3 of the second optional function and the scroll bar moving direction.

  When the function badge 3 of the second option function is in the direction opposite to the scroll bar moving direction as viewed from the function badge 3 of the first option function, the badge adjustment position determining unit 106 The position of each function badge 3 is determined so that the function badge 3 becomes a starting point badge.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 25, the function badge 3 of the first optional function is the function badge 3G, the function badge 3 of the second optional function is the function badge 3D, and the scroll bar moving direction is the right direction. In this case, the position of each function badge 3 is re-determined as follows.

  When the function badge 3G is tapped, the badge adjustment position determination unit 106 makes the function badge 3D, which is the function badge 3 of the second optional function, become the start point badge, as shown in FIG. The position of each function badge 3 is determined so as to be arranged at the end of the scroll bar moving direction on the area 2A. Then, the position of the slide gauge 5 is also determined again, and the badge selection screen data generation unit 101 and the badge selection screen display control unit 102 perform the badge selection screen in a state where the function badges 3 and the slide gauge 5 are arranged at new positions. 2 is displayed again. At this time, the display form of the function badge 3D may be different from the display form of the other function badges 3 to notify the user that the setting of the second optional function has been automatically performed.

  However, when there is no second optional function, as a general rule, the position of each function badge 3 is determined so that the function badge 3G becomes the starting point badge. Further, when the function badge 3 of the second optional function is not in the direction opposite to the scroll bar moving direction when viewed from the function badge 3G (for example, when the function badge 3H is the function badge 3 of the second optional function) As a rule, the position of each function badge 3 is determined so that the function badge 3G becomes the start badge.

  The additional example can be applied not only to the first embodiment but also to the second embodiment.

  In addition, when the function badge 3 of the first option function and the function badge 3 of the second option function are too far apart, if each function badge 3 is rearranged, which part of the function badge column 300 is The user may not know whether it is displayed in the function badge area 2A.

  Thus, the fact that the function badge 3 of the second optional function is also arranged in the function badge area 2A when the function badge 3 of the first optional function is tapped has been described with reference to FIG. 25 and FIG. You may add as conditions which perform the process of position adjustment.

  Alternatively, when the function badge 3 of the first optional function is tapped, the function badge 3 of the second optional function is not arranged in the function badge area 2A, but the function badge 3 of the second optional function is the starting point. It may be a condition that the function badge 3 of the first optional function is also arranged in the function badge area 2A after being rearranged to become a badge.

  That is, for example, when the function badge 3 of the first option function is the function badge 3D, the function badge 3 of the second option function is the function badge 3Y, and the scroll bar moving direction is the right direction, FIG. When the function badge 3D is tapped as shown in FIG. 28, the function badges 3 are rearranged as shown in FIG. However, when the function badge 3 of the second optional function is the function badge 3X, the function badge 3D and the function badge 3X cannot be arranged at the same time in the function badge area 2A. Leave the layout shown in.

[Modification 1]
29 and 30 are diagrams showing examples of the badge selection screen 2. FIG.

  In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, each function badge 3 is adjusted such that the tapped function badge 3 is arranged at the tail end of the scroll bar moving direction in the function badge area 2A. However, the function badge row 300 is arranged such that the last function badge 3 in the scroll bar moving direction in the group to which the tapped function badge 3 belongs is arranged at the tail in the scroll bar moving direction in the function badge area 2A. May be shifted.

  For example, when the function badge 3E is tapped and set when the scroll bar moving direction is the right direction as shown in FIG. 29, “category 2” to which the function badge 3E belongs is shown in FIG. The function badge row 300 is shifted so that the function badge 3D located at the left end of the group is placed at the left end of the function badge area 2A.

  Such a shift of the function badge column 300 may be performed when both conditions that the function badge 3 is tapped and the setting related to the optional function related to the function badge 3 is satisfied are satisfied. You may perform when only the former of both conditions is satisfy | filled.

[Modification 2]
FIGS. 31 to 35 are diagrams showing examples of the badge selection screen 2.

  In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, when the function badge 3 is tapped and a necessary operation for setting an optional function is performed, the position of each function badge 3 is re-determined. However, even if the function badge 3 is tapped but the setting of the optional function is not performed or cancelled, the position of each function badge 3 may be determined again.

  For example, when the function badge 3E is tapped and set when the scroll bar movement direction is the right direction as shown in FIG. 31, the function badge 3E is moved to the end of the scroll bar movement direction (here, as shown in FIG. 32). Then, the position of each functional badge 3 is re-determined so as to be arranged at the left end).

  Next, as shown in FIG. 33, when the user slides the scroll bar 51 in the opposite direction, that is, in the left direction, the scroll bar moving direction changes to the left direction. Even when the user taps the function badge 3X as shown in FIG. 34 and does not set or cancels the setting, as shown in FIG. 35, the function badge 3X ends in the scroll bar moving direction (here, the right end). The position of each function badge 3 is re-determined so as to be disposed at the position.

  In the case of the additional example described above, if the function badge 3 is tapped, the position of each function badge 3 may be determined again regardless of whether the setting is executed.

[Other variations]
FIG. 36 is a diagram showing a modified example of the badge selection screen 2.
