FIG.

  First, the control unit 101 of the image forming apparatus 1 determines whether or not to shift to a setting value change mode in which setting values are changed for a plurality of setting items (step S10). When a button for shifting to the setting value change mode is displayed on the display 71, when the operation receiving unit 102 receives a touch operation that touches a position on the touch panel 72 where the button is displayed, Moves to the setting value change mode. Further, when a dedicated key for calling the setting value change mode is provided in the operation key unit 73, when the dedicated key is pressed, the mode shifts to the setting value change mode.

  When the mode is changed to the setting value change mode (YES in step S10), the display control unit 103 has a plurality of setting items whose setting values can be changed in the image forming apparatus 1, as shown in FIG. Is displayed on the display 71 (step S11).

  Then, the display control unit 103 determines whether or not the operation receiving unit 102 has received selection of one setting item among the plurality of setting items by a touch operation in a state where the setting screen D1 is displayed (step S12). .

  When the selection of one selection item is accepted (YES in step S12), the display control unit 103 causes the display display 71 to perform a display visually recognized by the user in a state where the setting screen D2 overlaps the setting screen D1 ( Step S13). At this time, the display control unit 103 displays the setting item list d1, the first setting value list d2, and the second setting value lists d3 and d4 so as to cross each other. In the example shown in FIG. 3C, in the second setting value lists d3 and d4, four settings are set in ascending order from the date and time when the change of the setting value indicated in the history information is accepted to the current date and time. The value is displayed. In this case, the setting value of “monochrome” in the setting item of “color setting” is the setting value that has been most recently changed.

  In addition, the display control unit 103 displays the setting item for which selection has been received in the process of step S12 in an area d5 where the setting item list d1, the first setting value list d2, and the second setting value lists d3 and d4 intersect. Display. Further, the display control unit 103 displays a plurality of setting values for the setting item displayed in the area d5 in the first setting value list d2. In the example shown in FIG. 3B and FIG. 3C, “original size” is selected as the setting item, and therefore the first setting value list d2 can be changed in the “original size” setting item. A plurality of set values “A3”, “A4”, “B3”, and the like are displayed. In the area d5, “A4”, which is the current setting value in the setting item “original size”, is displayed.

  The display control unit 103 determines whether or not the operation reception unit 102 has received a vertical scroll operation in a state where the setting screen D2 is displayed (step S14).

  When the scroll operation in the vertical direction is received (YES in step S14), the display control unit 103 causes the setting item list d1 to be scrolled, and the setting item list d1, the first setting value list d2, and the second setting. A plurality of setting values for the setting items displayed in the area d5 where the value lists d3 and d4 intersect are displayed in the first setting value list d2 (step S15). In the example shown in FIG. 5A, as a result of accepting a scroll operation in the vertical direction from the state shown in FIG. 3C and scrolling the setting item list d1, the setting item “density” is displayed in the area d5. It is displayed. In this case, the setting value shown in the first setting value list d2 is switched from the setting value for the “document size” setting item to the setting value for the “density” setting item.

  Further, the display control unit 103 determines whether or not the operation receiving unit 102 has received a horizontal scroll operation in a state where the setting screen D2 is displayed (step S16).

  When a horizontal scroll operation is received (YES in step S16), the display control unit 103 scrolls and displays the first set value list d2 (step S17). In the example shown in FIG. 5B, as a result of accepting a scroll operation in the horizontal direction from the state shown in FIG. 5A and scrolling the first setting value list d2, the setting item list d1 and the first setting item list d1 are displayed. In the area d5 where the set value list d2 and the second set value lists d3 and d4 intersect, “+1” is displayed as the set value of the “density” setting item. In the example shown in FIG. 6A, a scroll operation in the horizontal direction is accepted from the state shown in FIG. 3C, and the first set value list d2 is scroll-displayed. As a result, the setting item list d1 and A setting value “A5” is displayed as a setting value of the setting item “original size” in an area d5 where the first setting value list d2 intersects.

  Further, the display control unit 103 determines whether or not the operation receiving unit 102 has received a scroll operation in an oblique direction in a state where the setting screen D2 is displayed (step S18).

  When the scroll operation in the oblique direction is received (YES in step S18), the display control unit 103 scrolls and displays the second set value lists d3 and d4 (step S19). In the example shown in FIG. 6B, a scroll operation in the oblique direction is input from the state shown in FIG. In this case, the display control unit 103 scrolls and displays the second setting value list d4, and as a result, “2 in 1” is displayed as the setting value of the setting item “page aggregation” in the area d5.

  The display control unit 103 circulates and displays the setting items and setting values when scrolling the setting item list d1, the first setting value list d2, and the second setting value lists d3 and d4. . In the example shown in FIG. 3C, the “Page Aggregation” setting item is displayed in the top column of the setting item list d1, and “Ejection destination” is displayed in the bottom column of the setting item list d1. Setting items are displayed. Then, when a vertical scroll operation is accepted from this state, the setting items in the setting item list d1 are displayed in a circulating manner, as shown in FIG. 5A, in the top column of the setting item list d1. Displays the setting item of “Destination”.

  Then, the display control unit 103 determines whether or not the operation receiving unit 102 has received a predetermined set value confirming operation (step S20). The predetermined set value confirming operation is, for example, an operation (double touch operation) in which the same position is touched twice within a predetermined period at any position in the area on the touch panel 72.

  When the set value confirming operation is accepted (YES in step S20), the set value accepting unit 106 has an area d5 where the set item list d1, the first set value list d2, and the second set value lists d3 and d4 intersect. The setting value of the setting item displayed in is received as the changed setting value, and the setting value is stored in the HDD 50 (step S21).

  In the above, when the operation accepting unit 102 accepts a predetermined setting value confirming operation, the setting value accepting unit 106 accepts the setting value of the setting item displayed in the area d5 as the changed setting value. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this case. Even if there is no special operation such as a double touch operation, a setting item displayed in an area d5 where the setting item list d1, the first setting value list d2, and the second setting value lists d3 and d4 intersect by scrolling operation. When the set value is changed and then a predetermined time has elapsed, the set value receiving unit 106 may receive the set value as the changed set value.

  After the process of step S21, the display control unit 103 determines whether or not the operation receiving unit 102 has received a predetermined set value change end operation (step S22). The predetermined setting value change end operation is, for example, an operation of touching a position on the touch panel 72 where the setting screen D2 is not displayed.

  When the set value change ending operation is not accepted (NO in step S22), the process returns to step S14. On the other hand, when the setting value change end operation is accepted (YES in step S22), the setting screen whose setting value has been changed and the display form are displayed differently from the setting items other than the setting item. It is displayed on the display 71 (step S23). Thereby, the setting item in which the setting value has been changed by the scroll operation in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction can be notified in an easy-to-understand manner for the user. In the example shown in FIG. 7, from the state shown in FIG. 3A, the setting value “A4” for the setting item “original size” changes from the setting value “A5” to the setting value “0” for the setting item “density”. The setting value “+1” is changed from “” to the setting value “+1”, and the setting value “normal” is changed to the setting value “2 in 1”.

  As described above, the display input device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the display display 71, the touch panel 72 disposed on the front surface of the display display 71, the operation reception unit 102 that receives a user operation on the touch panel 72, and the operation In response to a user operation received by the receiving unit 102, a display control unit 103 that controls a display operation by the display display 71, and in accordance with a user operation received by the operation receiving unit 102, setting values of a plurality of setting items are set. A setting value receiving unit 106 that receives a change, a history information generating unit 104 that generates history information indicating a history of setting values for which a setting value change has been received in the past by the setting value receiving unit 106, and the plurality of information based on the history information. A set value extraction unit 105 that extracts a set value from the set values. Then, the display control unit 103 displays on the display 71 the setting item list d1 in which the setting items are listed along the first direction, and a plurality of setting values for any one of the setting items. The first setting value list d2 enumerated along a second direction different from the first direction, and the setting values extracted by the setting value extraction unit 105 are the first direction and the second direction. When the second set value lists d3 and d4 enumerated along different third directions are displayed so as to cross each other, and the operation reception unit 102 receives a scroll operation in the first direction. The setting item list d1 is scroll-displayed, and a plurality of setting values for the setting item displayed in the area d5 intersecting with the first setting value list d2 are displayed in the first setting value list d2.
