Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily identify the discrimination of a first round and a second round even at the beginning of the second round and in the middle of it by causing the displaying form of the first round of a selective candidate group can be displaying form of the second round to be different and executing the display of them. CONSTITUTION:When a Chinese character dictionary key 9 is continued to push, all candidates are displayed in one round and the display of the final candidate group is executed. During this display, a selecting number is displayed with a normal figure. When the Chinese character dictionary key 9 is pushed even after the final candidate group is displayed, the same Chinese character as the first candidate group is displayed, however, when the display of the second round is executed, the selective number is displayed with the white black inverted figure. Further, when the Chinese character dictionary key 9 is pushed, the original display of the first candidate group appears and even after the second round, operation is samely repeated. Thus, since the displaying forms of the selecting candidate groups are different between the first round and the second round, the end of the one round display of the selective candidate group can be easily identified.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a method for displaying a group of selection candidates on a display screen of a word processor or the like.

(q Prior Art) In a conventional word processor (for example, Sanyo Electric Word Processor 5WP-3400).

When inputting a homonym kanji by selecting a desired one from multiple selection candidates φ', for example 1011! 1 candidates are displayed as a group, and if the desired one is found among them, the desired one is input by inputting the selection number, and if the desired one is not found among them, the 29 keys are pressed on the small board. The next candidate # is called and displayed, and if it is not among them, the next candidate group is called and displayed one after another. When all the candidates have been displayed, the first candidate group is displayed again in the same format as above. Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the rotary display method described above, the display of all candidates in the first round and the display in the second round are in the same format. Therefore, it is difficult to distinguish between the first and second rounds, and especially when the total number of candidates is a multiple of the number of candidates in one group nth, it becomes even more difficult to distinguish between the last group and the first group.

(There is a problem of displaying the same candidate many times and only one) The uninvented means to solve the problem was made to prevent the above-mentioned duplicate display of the same candidate, and the selected candidate It is characterized by displaying groups in different display formats in the first and second rounds. Since the first round and the second round are different, it is possible to easily identify the end of the first round display of the selection candidate group.

(F) EXAMPLE A case in which the present invention is applied to 10 sets of all words will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Figure 1 is a block diagram of the entire word 10 setter, in which the width is the input device consisting of the keyboard area, 121 is 0f (T or L).
A display device such as a CD, ξ31 is a CPU, etc., and a central processing unit that controls each part and executes character data processing, IJ.
is a storage device that stores various data such as kanji, symbols, and illustrations. The input device has a character input key part 15+ for inputting character data such as kana, alphanumeric characters, etc., a function key part 161t- for executing various functions, and a function key part 16+.
There is a kanji conversion key (17) for converting a kana character string into a character string containing kanji, and a blank (front) conversion key (8I, kanji, symbols, illustrations, etc.) for inputting a kana character string as is. Kanji dictionary key (9) to call up all selection candidates.
While displaying selected candidates including 1st grade, the key to call up the next candidate is the Kanji dictionary key (91), and the key to call up the previous candidate is the None (previous) conversion key (also used as 81). The central processing unit (31 is the input table @ I l
The input character strings are sequentially displayed on the display device + 21 based on the input operation of +, and when the selection of a predetermined kanji, symbol, illustration, etc. is instructed by the operation of the kanji dictionary key (91), a predetermined kanji, symbol, illustration, etc. For example, the candidates are read out in units of 10 and displayed in the selection candidate display area IHh of the display device 12).

Second factor (a), (1) ljc(7,) display area 111h
This shows a state in which kanji candidates with the pronunciation of ``Vcゝ１し'' are displayed in two forms, and the display area 1P has up to 10 selection candidates as one group, and each has a selection number from 0 to 9 *
The operation of the present invention will be explained below with reference to FIG. 3, taking as an example the case where all kanji candidates with the reading ``11'' are selected. 111. After inputting /J, press the kanji dictionary key (91) to select the 10 kanji candidates ('1

It is displayed on llI. If there is something you want, enter the selection number:! 7 The kanji is selected and input. If the desired one is not found, the next candidate group is displayed. In this case, the kanji dictionary key + 91 is also used as the 11 kanji dictionary key (if 91 is pressed successively, the screen (1) in the same figure) is displayed. The second selection candidate group is displayed in the two shown. If the kanji dictionary key +91 is held down, all the candidates are displayed in one cycle, and the final candidate group shown in b (c) is displayed. During this time, the selection number ([21!121...
is displayed in normal numbers, and if there is a desired candidate among the previously displayed candidates, you can press the null (previous) conversion key (8) to scroll to the previous display. 1 If the kanji dictionary key +91 is pressed even after the final candidate group is displayed, the same kanji as in the first candidate group will be displayed in the box shown in FIG. 4(d). However, when displaying the second exit, the selection number σ 2... is displayed in black and white inverted numbers. Then, if you keep pressing the Kanji dictionary key (91), select 1 with the selection number Uzawa?... remaining highlighted in black and white.
The same candidate groups as in the second round are sequentially displayed, and as shown in □□□ (f), the final candidate group for the second round is displayed. When the kanji dictionary key 91 is further pressed, the first candidate group of the uni original is displayed as shown in FIG. When the null ([i]) conversion key 1M+ is pressed while the first candidate group is displayed in the second round, the normal selection number a force q is pressed as shown in FIG.
The screen returns to the display of the final candidate group where power... is displayed.

In addition, in the above example VC, the selection number (121C12
The first and second rounds can be distinguished by reversing the black and white of 1..., but this is not the only way to distinguish between them. Various methods such as a flashing display can also be used, and selection candidates can also be kanji characters. (g) Effects of the Invention If the invention is applied to the above-mentioned techniques, the first and second selection candidates will be improved.
The display of rounds is displayed with different heads, so the distinction between the first round and the second round can be easily distinguished at the beginning and middle of the second round◎
