Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To optionally vary items of high use frequencies so that they are displayed preferentially according to use environment by selecting a priority- varied item and changing its setting to desired priority. SOLUTION: A menu screen is displayed at a display part, a desired item to be changed in priority, e.g. an item 1 is selected (a), and with a Soft 1 key pressed, 'item 1' on a cursor is selected, so that the screen is switched. The 'item' on the cursor is selected (b) by pressing the Soft 1 key after moving the cursor to the target line so as to change the priority level of the 'item 1' selected from an alteration list menu. The Soft 1 key is pressed after the 'item 1' which is already selected is moved to a desired change position and then the screen is switched, thereby a state wherein the 'item 1' is moved to the desired change position is realized (d).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for adding / changing a menu information display priority in accordance with the frequency of use of menu information displayed on a menu screen within a scroll range of the same menu screen. The present invention relates to a mobile communication terminal that displays menu information frequently deleted and used on a menu screen in priority order.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional portable communication terminal, the display priority of a menu information screen is determined in the following manner.

(1) Items frequently accessed during a certain period are displayed using the rule that the display priority is high.

(2) At the stage of creating software, the display priority of menu information has been determined in advance.

[0005]

As described above, the conventional portable communication terminal has the following problems.

(1) Even if the display priority of the menu information is determined and displayed by using a certain rule, the menu information is not always displayed in such a way that the user can easily use it. Was dependent on the display priority of the menu information.

(2) In the stage of creating software, even if the display priority of the menu information is determined in advance and the menu information is displayed, it is not always easy for the user himself to use it, and the user cannot change it. .

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve these problems, and a portable communication terminal for sequentially displaying two or more items displayed on one screen in order from the top row to the bottom row. In the above, when the priority is changed from the items displayed with priority, the priority change item is selected by the first operation key, and the selected priority change item is changed to the second priority.
The present invention provides a mobile communication terminal that changes the setting to a desired priority by using the operation key of (1).

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a mobile communication terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an operation of the mobile communication terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, a mobile communication terminal 101 according to the present invention includes an antenna 101, a wireless unit 102, a modulation and demodulation unit 103, a control unit 104, a codec unit 105, a speaker 106,
Reference numeral 07 denotes an MIC (microphone), 108 denotes a display unit, 109 denotes a key input unit, 110 denotes a power supply unit, and 111 denotes a remaining power detection unit.

The operation will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. A menu screen as shown in FIG. 2A is displayed on the display unit 108 shown in FIG. On the top line of this menu screen, an icon for indicating the remaining battery level indicating the level of the reception intensity is displayed. The menu items are "item 1" and "item 2" in order from the upper row.
And “item 3” are displayed. On the bottom line, Soft1 and Soft2 characters indicating some keys of the key input unit 109 shown in FIG. 1 are displayed. Here, the cursor is moved to a target line while moving the cursor with the ↑ key and the ↓ key to select a menu item whose priority order is to be changed, for example, item 1. Then, by pressing the Soft1 key, "item 1" on the cursor is selected, and the screen can be switched to the screen (b). Also,
Pressing the displayed Soft2 key switches to the upper screen.

Next, in FIG. 2B, the display section of FIG. 2B displays a change list menu. This change list menu contains Add, Delete, and Change
Mode is displayed. Here, for the "item 1" selected in (a), the cursor is moved to the target line while moving the cursor with the up and down keys to change the priority, and then the Soft1 key is pressed. Select "Change" on the cursor.

Next, in (c) of FIG. 2, (c) is a screen display unit for indicating a change priority. Here, the “item 1” already selected is moved to a position to be changed while operating the ↑ and ↓ keys. When the displayed Soft2 key is pressed, the screen switches to the upper screen (b), and when the Soft1 key is pressed, the screen switches to the screen (d).

Next, FIG. 2 (d) shows a state where "item 1" has been moved to the place to be changed by the operation of FIG. 2 (c). That is, “item 1” at the top of the menu item on the screen of FIG.
It can be seen that the screen has been changed between the positions of “item 2” and “item 3”. When the displayed Soft2 key is pressed, the position of "item 1" is returned and the screen is switched to the screen of FIG. 2B, and when the Soft1 key is pressed, the position of "item 1" is determined and ( The screen is switched to the screen of a).

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, an item which the user wishes to prioritize is selected from a plurality of items displayed on one screen in order to give priority to an item frequently used by the user in accordance with the use environment. Can be changed to Therefore,
An extremely operable mobile communication terminal can be provided.
