　本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する片手操作モードに設定されている場合に以下に説明する処理を実行する。本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する片手操作モードまたは情報処理装置１を両手で操作する両手操作モードを設定可能なモード設定画面を表示画面Ｇに表示させることができる。そして、表示制御部１０ａは、当該モード設定画面において設定されたモードに従って、片手操作モードに設定されているか否かを判断する。 In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a executes the process described below when the information processing apparatus 1 is set to a one-hand operation mode in which the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand. In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a causes the display screen G to display a mode setting screen that can set a one-handed operation mode in which the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand or a two-handed operation mode in which the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with both hands. be able to. Then, the display control unit 10a determines whether or not the one-hand operation mode is set according to the mode set on the mode setting screen.
　そして、表示制御部１０ａは、片手操作モードに設定されている場合にタッチパネルＴによりタッチ操作が検出されると、タッチパネルＴから、表示画面Ｇ上においてタッチ操作が検出された検出位置を示す位置情報を受信する（ステップＳ３０１）。本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、図４に示すように、表示画面Ｇの領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置の一例）にボタンＩ１～Ｉ１５を表示させる（以下の説明では、ボタンＩ１～Ｉ１５を区別する必要がない場合には、単にボタンＩと記載する）。そして、表示制御部１０ａは、図５に示すように、表示画面Ｇ上の任意の検出位置Ｚにおいて、ボタンＩの移動を指示するタッチ操作（例えば、検出位置Ｚにおける長押しまたはダブルタップなど）が検出されると、タッチパネルＴから、検出位置Ｚを示す位置情報を受信する。 When the touch operation is detected by the touch panel T when the display control unit 10a is set to the one-hand operation mode, the position information indicating the detection position where the touch operation is detected on the display screen G from the touch panel T. Is received (step S301). In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the display control unit 10a displays buttons I1 to I15 in the areas A1 and A2 (an example of a predetermined position) of the display screen G (in the following description, the buttons I1 to I15). If it is not necessary to distinguish I15, it is simply referred to as button I). Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the display control unit 10a touches the button I to move at an arbitrary detection position Z on the display screen G (for example, long press or double tap at the detection position Z). Is detected, the position information indicating the detection position Z is received from the touch panel T.
　次に、表示制御部１０ａは、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置と表示画面Ｇの辺の位置とに基づいて、表示画面Ｇに表示されたボタンＩ（アイコンの一例）を移動させる領域（以下、集合領域と言う）を決定する（ステップＳ３０２）。具体的には、表示制御部１０ａは、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置および当該検出位置の周囲のうち少なくとも当該検出位置の周囲を、集合領域に決定する。本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、図６に示すように、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置Ｚの周囲のうち、当該検出位置Ｚを基準として、表示画面Ｇの辺Ｈ１～Ｈ４のうち当該検出位置Ｚが最も近い辺Ｈ４の反対側の領域を集合領域Ｒに決定する。ここで、集合領域Ｒは、検出位置Ｚから、情報処理装置１のユーザの指Ｙが届く所定の範囲である。より具体的には、集合領域Ｒは、図６に示すように、検出位置Ｚを含む扇型の領域であることが好ましい。 Next, the display control unit 10a moves a button I (an example of an icon) displayed on the display screen G based on the detection position indicated by the received position information and the position of the side of the display screen G (hereinafter, an icon). , Referred to as a collection area) (step S302). Specifically, the display control unit 10a determines at least the periphery of the detection position among the detection position indicated by the received position information and the periphery of the detection position as a collection region. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the display control unit 10a, among the edges H1 to H4 of the display screen G, around the detection position Z indicated by the received position information, with the detection position Z as a reference. A region opposite to the side H4 closest to the detection position Z is determined as the collection region R. Here, the gathering region R is a predetermined range from the detection position Z where the finger Y of the user of the information processing apparatus 1 can reach. More specifically, the gathering region R is preferably a fan-shaped region including the detection position Z, as shown in FIG.
　例えば、表示制御部１０ａは、図７（ａ）に示すように、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置Ｚが表示画面Ｇの辺Ｈ１～Ｈ４のうち辺Ｈ４に最も近い場合、検出位置Ｚを基準として、検出位置Ｚの周囲のうち辺Ｈ４の反対側の領域を集合領域Ｒに決定する。また、表示制御部１０ａは、図７（ｂ）に示すように、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置Ｚが表示画面Ｇの辺Ｈ１～Ｈ４のうち辺Ｈ１に最も近い場合、検出位置Ｚを基準として、検出位置Ｚの周囲のうち辺Ｈ１の反対側の領域を集合領域Ｒに決定する。 For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, the display control unit 10a uses the detected position Z as a reference when the detected position Z indicated by the received position information is closest to the side H4 among the sides H1 to H4 of the display screen G. As a result, the area on the opposite side of the side H4 in the periphery of the detection position Z is determined as the collection area R. Further, as shown in FIG. 7B, the display control unit 10a uses the detected position Z as a reference when the detected position Z indicated by the received position information is closest to the side H1 among the sides H1 to H4 of the display screen G. As a result, the region on the opposite side of the side H1 in the periphery of the detection position Z is determined as the collective region R.
　また、表示制御部１０ａは、図７（ｃ）に示すように、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置Ｚが表示画面Ｇの辺Ｈ１～Ｈ４のうち辺Ｈ２に最も近い場合、検出位置Ｚを基準として、検出位置Ｚの周囲のうち辺Ｈ２の反対側の領域を集合領域Ｒに決定する。さらに、表示制御部１０ａは、図７（ｄ）に示すように、受信した位置情報が示す検出位置Ｚが表示画面Ｇの辺Ｈ１～Ｈ４のうち辺Ｈ３に最も近い場合、検出位置Ｚを基準として、検出位置Ｚの周囲のうち辺Ｈ３の反対側の領域を集合領域Ｒに決定する。 Further, as shown in FIG. 7C, the display control unit 10a uses the detected position Z as a reference when the detected position Z indicated by the received position information is closest to the side H2 among the sides H1 to H4 of the display screen G. As a result, the region on the opposite side of the side H2 in the periphery of the detection position Z is determined as the collection region R. Further, as shown in FIG. 7D, the display control unit 10a uses the detected position Z as a reference when the detected position Z indicated by the received position information is closest to the side H3 among the sides H1 to H4 of the display screen G. As a result, the region on the opposite side of the side H3 in the periphery of the detection position Z is determined as the collection region R.
　これにより、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する場合に、表示画面Ｇ上においてタッチ操作する指Ｙの支点とは反対側の領域を集合領域Ｒに決定することができるので、表示画面Ｇ上においてタッチ操作する指Ｙの周囲のうち指Ｙによりタッチ操作し易い領域にボタンＩを移動させることができる。 As a result, when the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand, the region on the opposite side of the fulcrum of the finger Y that is touch-operated on the display screen G can be determined as the collective region R. The button I can be moved to a region where the touch operation can be easily performed by the finger Y in the periphery of the finger Y to be touch-operated.
　本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、タッチパネルＴによりボタンＩの移動する指示するタッチ操作を検出した検出位置に基づいて、集合領域を決定しているが、これに限定するものではなく、例えば、情報処理装置１の筐体の側部に感圧センサを設け、当該感圧センサにより検出されたユーザの手の位置に基づいて、表示画面Ｇ上において当該手の位置近傍または当該手の位置近傍の周囲の少なくともいずれか一方を集合領域に決定しても良い。 In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a determines the gathering area based on the detection position at which the touch operation instructing the button I to be moved by the touch panel T is detected. However, the present invention is not limited to this. A pressure sensor is provided on the side of the housing of the information processing apparatus 1, and based on the position of the user's hand detected by the pressure sensor, the vicinity of the hand or the position of the hand on the display screen G You may determine at least any one of the circumference | surroundings of the vicinity as a collection area | region.
　図３に戻り、集合領域が決定すると、表示制御部１０ａは、表示画面Ｇに表示されたボタンＩを認識する（ステップＳ３０３）。具体的には、表示制御部１０ａは、表示画面Ｇに表示されたボタンＩに関わるボタン情報（本実施形態では、ボタンＩがタッチ操作された回数や頻度などの操作履歴など）を取得する。 Referring back to FIG. 3, when the set area is determined, the display control unit 10a recognizes the button I displayed on the display screen G (step S303). Specifically, the display control unit 10a acquires button information related to the button I displayed on the display screen G (in this embodiment, an operation history such as the number and frequency of touch operations of the button I).
　次いで、表示制御部１０ａは、取得したボタン情報に基づいて、表示画面Ｇに表示された各ボタンＩが、所定の選択条件を満たすボタンＩ（以下、固定ボタンと言う）であるか否かを判定する（ステップＳ３０４）。本実施形態では、所定の選択条件は、ボタンＩがタッチ操作した回数が所定回数以上であること、ボタンＩがタッチ操作された頻度が所定頻度以上であることなど、ユーザがタッチ操作した回数または頻度が多いボタンＩを常にタッチ操作し易い位置に表示させるための条件である。 Next, the display control unit 10a determines whether or not each button I displayed on the display screen G is a button I that satisfies a predetermined selection condition (hereinafter referred to as a fixed button) based on the acquired button information. Determination is made (step S304). In the present embodiment, the predetermined selection condition includes the number of times the user performs a touch operation such as that the number of times that the button I has been touched is greater than or equal to the predetermined number of times, This is a condition for displaying the frequently used button I at a position where the touch operation is always easy.
　そして、ボタンＩが固定ボタンであると判定した場合（ステップＳ３０４：Ｙｅｓ）、表示制御部１０ａは、固定ボタンであると判定したボタンＩが、ステップＳ３０２において決定した集合領域内に位置するか否かを判断する（ステップＳ３０５）。表示制御部１０ａは、固定ボタンであると判定したボタンＩが集合領域内に位置すると判断した場合（ステップＳ３０５：Ｙｅｓ）、当該固定ボタンであると判定したボタンＩの移動を行わない（ステップＳ３０７）。 If it is determined that the button I is a fixed button (step S304: Yes), the display control unit 10a determines whether the button I determined to be a fixed button is located in the set area determined in step S302. Is determined (step S305). When the display control unit 10a determines that the button I determined to be a fixed button is located in the collection area (step S305: Yes), the display control unit 10a does not move the button I determined to be the fixed button (step S307). ).
　一方、表示制御部１０ａは、固定ボタンであると判定したボタンＩが集合領域内に位置しないと判断した場合（ステップＳ３０５：Ｎｏ）およびボタンＩが所定の選択条件を満たす固定ボタン以外のボタンＩであると判定した場合（ステップＳ３０４：Ｎｏ）、ボタンＩを集合領域に移動させる（ステップＳ３０６）。これにより、例えば一方の手で電車の吊革を握りながら他方の手で情報処理装置１を操作する場合など、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する際に、情報処理装置１を把持する手の指Ｙ近傍にボタンＩが配置されるので、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する場合であってもボタンＩを容易に操作することができる。また、ボタンＩが固定ボタンである場合には、タッチ操作に応じて決定される集合領域に追従して移動させることができる（言い換えると、ボタンＩのうち固定ボタンを、常に、指Ｙの近傍に表示させることができる）。本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、図６に示すように、ボタンＩを集合領域Ｒに移動させる間、当該ボタンＩを表示画面Ｇに表示したままとする。これにより、情報処理装置１のユーザは、領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に配置されていたボタンＩが集合領域Ｒのどの位置に移動したかを容易に認識することができる。 On the other hand, when the display control unit 10a determines that the button I determined to be a fixed button is not located in the collection area (step S305: No), and the button I other than the fixed button that satisfies the predetermined selection condition. If it is determined that it is (step S304: No), the button I is moved to the collection area (step S306). Thus, for example, when the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand, such as when the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand while holding the train strap with one hand, the finger of the hand holding the information processing apparatus 1 Since the button I is arranged in the vicinity of Y, the button I can be easily operated even when the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand. Further, when the button I is a fixed button, the button I can be moved following the set area determined according to the touch operation (in other words, the fixed button of the button I is always in the vicinity of the finger Y). Can be displayed.) In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a keeps the button I displayed on the display screen G while moving the button I to the collective region R as shown in FIG. Thereby, the user of the information processing apparatus 1 can easily recognize to which position in the assembly area R the button I arranged in the areas A1 and A2 (predetermined positions) has moved.
　また、本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、図８に示すように、ボタンＩを集合領域Ｒに移動させる場合に、当該ボタンＩの表示サイズを変更することなく、当該ボタンＩを集合領域Ｒに移動させる。これにより、ボタンＩを集合領域Ｒに移動させた場合に、当該ボタンＩの表示サイズが領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に配置されていたときの表示サイズよりも小さくなって当該ボタンＩが操作し難くなることを防止する。 Further, in the present embodiment, when the button I is moved to the collection area R, the display control unit 10a moves the button I to the collection area without changing the display size of the button I, as shown in FIG. Move to R. As a result, when the button I is moved to the collective region R, the display size of the button I becomes smaller than the display size when the button I is arranged in the regions A1 and A2 (predetermined positions), and the button I Prevents difficult operation.
　さらに、本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、図５および図８に示すように、複数のボタンＩを集合領域Ｒに移動させる際、領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に表示されていた際の複数のボタンＩ間の配置関係を無視して、複数のボタンＩを無秩序に集合領域Ｒ内に配置する。これにより、領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に表示された際の複数のボタンＩの配置関係にとらわれずに、集合領域Ｒ内においてユーザのタッチ操作し易い位置に複数のボタンＩを移動させることができる。 Further, in the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a is displayed in the areas A1 and A2 (predetermined positions) when the plurality of buttons I are moved to the gathering area R as shown in FIGS. In this case, the plurality of buttons I are randomly arranged in the gathering region R while ignoring the arrangement relationship between the plurality of buttons I. Thus, the plurality of buttons I are moved to positions where the user can easily perform a touch operation in the collective region R without being limited by the arrangement relationship of the plurality of buttons I when displayed in the regions A1 and A2 (predetermined positions). be able to.
　図３に戻り、表示制御部１０ａは、ボタンＩの移動を指示するタッチ操作（本実施形態では、検出位置Ｚにおける長押しまたはダブルタップなど）が解除された後、所定の条件を満たしたか否かを判断する（ステップＳ３０８）。本実施形態では、所定の条件は、集合領域に移動させたボタンＩのいずれかがタッチ操作により当該ボタンＩの選択が確定されたこと（例えば、ボタンＩがタップされて当該ボタンＩの選択が確定した場合など）、集合領域にボタンＩを移動させてから所定時間経過すること、若しくはボタンＩを領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に戻すことを指示する移動指示が入力されることのいずれかである。本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、ボタンＩを集合領域に移動させた後、表示画面Ｇ上において集合領域以外の領域において長押しまたはダブルタップなどのタッチ操作が行われた場合に、ボタンＩを領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に戻すことを指示する移動指示が入力されたと判断する。 Returning to FIG. 3, the display control unit 10 a satisfies whether a predetermined condition is satisfied after the touch operation instructing the movement of the button I (in this embodiment, a long press or double tap at the detection position Z) is released. Is determined (step S308). In the present embodiment, the predetermined condition is that any of the buttons I moved to the gathering area is confirmed to be selected by the touch operation (for example, the button I is tapped and the button I is selected). When the button I is moved to the collection area, a predetermined time elapses, or a movement instruction is input to return the button I to the areas A1 and A2 (predetermined positions). It is. In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a moves the button I to the collective area, and then performs a button operation when a touch operation such as long press or double tap is performed in an area other than the collective area on the display screen G. It is determined that a movement instruction that instructs to return I to the areas A1 and A2 (predetermined positions) is input.
　表示制御部１０ａは、所定の条件を満たしたと判断した場合（ステップＳ３０８：Ｙｅｓ）、集合領域に表示されたボタンＩの中に固定ボタンが含まれるか否かを判断する（ステップＳ３０９）。本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、ステップＳ３０４と同様にして、集合領域に表示されたボタンＩが固定ボタンが否かを判断する。そして、表示制御部１０ａは、集合領域に表示されたボタンＩの中に固定ボタンが含まれている場合（ステップＳ３０９：Ｙｅｓ）、固定ボタンを集合領域に残し（保留し）、固定ボタン以外のボタンを領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に移動させる（ステップＳ３１０）。一方、表示制御部１０ａは、集合領域に表示されたボタンＩの中に固定ボタンが含まれない場合（ステップＳ３０９：Ｎｏ）、集合領域に配置された全てのボタンＩを領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に移動させる（ステップＳ３１１）。 When the display control unit 10a determines that the predetermined condition is satisfied (step S308: Yes), the display control unit 10a determines whether or not a fixed button is included in the button I displayed in the collection area (step S309). In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a determines whether or not the button I displayed in the gathering area is a fixed button, as in step S304. When the fixed button is included in the button I displayed in the collective area (step S309: Yes), the display control unit 10a leaves the fixed button in the collective area (holds it). The button is moved to areas A1 and A2 (predetermined positions) (step S310). On the other hand, when the fixed button is not included in the button I displayed in the collection area (step S309: No), the display control unit 10a displays all the buttons I arranged in the collection area as areas A1 and A2 (predetermined). (Step S311).
　本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）から集合領域Ｒに移動させる場合と同様に、図９に示すように、ボタンＩを集合領域Ｒから領域Ａ１，Ａ２（所定の位置）に移動させる間も、当該ボタンＩを表示画面Ｇに表示したままとする。これにより、情報処理装置１のユーザは、集合領域Ｒに配置されていたボタンＩが所定の位置のどの位置に移動したかを容易に認識することができる。さらに、表示制御部１０ａは、図１０に示すように、集合領域Ｒに表示されたボタンＩ１～Ｉ１５の中に固定ボタンＩ１２が含まれている場合、固定ボタンＩ１２を集合領域Ｒに残し（保留し）、固定ボタンＩ１２以外のボタンＩを所定の位置に移動させる。これにより、情報処理装置１のユーザがタッチ操作する回数または頻度が多いボタンＩを常にユーザがタッチ操作し易い位置に表示させることができる。 In the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a moves the button I from the collection area R to the areas A1, A2 as shown in FIG. 9, as in the case of moving from the areas A1, A2 (predetermined positions) to the collection area R. The button I is kept displayed on the display screen G while being moved to (predetermined position). Thereby, the user of the information processing device 1 can easily recognize to which position of the predetermined position the button I arranged in the gathering region R has moved. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 10, when the buttons I1 to I15 displayed in the collection area R include the fixed button I12, the display control unit 10a leaves the fixed button I12 in the collection area R (holding). And a button I other than the fixed button I12 is moved to a predetermined position. As a result, the button I that is frequently or frequently touched by the user of the information processing apparatus 1 can always be displayed at a position where the user can easily touch.
　また、本実施形態では、表示制御部１０ａは、片手操作モードに設定された場合に、表示画面Ｇに表示されたアイコンを移動させる処理を実行しているが、これに限定するものではなく、情報処理装置１が片手操作モードに設定されているか若しくは両手操作モードに設定されているかに関わらず、常に、表示画面Ｇに表示されたアイコンを移動させる処理を実行しても良い。 Further, in the present embodiment, the display control unit 10a executes the process of moving the icon displayed on the display screen G when the one-handed operation mode is set. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Regardless of whether the information processing apparatus 1 is set to the one-handed operation mode or the two-handed operation mode, the process of moving the icon displayed on the display screen G may always be executed.
　このように、本実施形態の情報処理装置１によれば、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する際に、情報処理装置１を把持する手の指Ｙ近傍にボタンＩが配置されるので、情報処理装置１を片手で操作する場合であってもボタンＩを容易に操作することができる。 As described above, according to the information processing apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, when the information processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand, the button I is arranged in the vicinity of the finger Y of the hand that holds the information processing apparatus 1. Even when the processing apparatus 1 is operated with one hand, the button I can be easily operated.
