FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a display example of a text input / output screen by the text display device of the present invention. In the following, a case in which text is mainly displayed horizontally will be described as an example. FIG. 6 is an example in which four lines of the text displayed on the screen 11 shown in FIG. 1 are enlarged and displayed. The display screen includes a text display area 62 for displaying the text and an enlargement for designating a text enlargement range. A range designation bar 61 is displayed, and an input cursor 63 indicating a single line currently operated by the user as necessary is displayed in a text display area 62.
Is displayed. The enlargement range designation bar 61 may be normally hidden and can be displayed from a menu or the like when necessary.

An enlargement range designation bar 61 has an enlargement range upper end pointer 611 and an enlargement range lower end pointer 6 at the upper and lower ends.
These pointers can be moved to an arbitrary position in the vertical direction by an operation such as dragging the mouse cursor to the pointer, and the pointer designated by the upper end pointer 611 and the lower end pointer 612 of the enlargement range. The text in the text display area 62 is enlarged and displayed according to the range. In addition, enlargement range designation bar 6
1 itself can be moved to an arbitrary position in the vertical direction by an operation such as dragging a part other than the pointers 611 and 612, and the text enlargement of the text display area 62 is made corresponding to the moved position of the enlargement range designation bar 61. The display moves.

When the input cursor tracking flag 41 of the configuration data 309 is set to "TRUE",
When the input cursor 63 is moved up and down, the enlargement range designation bar 61 is automatically moved to a position that includes the line where the input cursor 63 is located, so that the text enlargement position in the text display area 62 is dynamic. Go to Text wrap display designation flag 42 of configuration data 309
Is set to "TRUE", and if the length of one line of text displayed when the text is enlarged is larger than the width of the text display area 62, the text that extends off the display area 62 is one line Wraps down. The enlargement range and position of the text are managed in units of display lines of the text, and graphic enlargement such as enlargement of only the lower half of the character displayed on a certain line is not performed.

FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram for explaining how the text display in the text display area 62 changes when the enlargement range designation bar 61 or the input cursor 63 is operated using the input device 302. 7A to 7C, when the enlargement range designation bar 61 is changed as shown on the right of the figure in the text display state shown on the left of the figure, the text display state changes as shown on the right of the figure. I do. Similarly, in the text display state shown on the right side of the figure, the enlargement range designation bar 61
Is changed as shown on the left side of the figure, the text display state changes as shown on the left side of the figure. FIG. 7D shows how the text display state changes with the movement of the input cursor 63.

FIG. 7A shows an enlarged range upper end pointer 6.
By moving 11 up and down, the enlargement range can be expanded (from left to right in the figure) or narrowed (from right to left in the figure)
It is a display example in the case of performing. When the number of lines of text that can be displayed simultaneously in the text display area 62 decreases due to an increase in the number of lines of text to be enlarged, the text of the number of lines that cannot be displayed from the bottom line of the displayed text is
The text is sent out of the display area of the text display area 62. When the number of lines of text that can be displayed simultaneously in the text display area 62 increases due to a decrease in the number of lines of text to be enlarged, texts corresponding to the number of lines that can be newly displayed are read from the text data 311, It is additionally displayed in the text display area 62.

FIG. 7B shows an enlarged range lower end pointer 6.
By moving 12 up and down, the enlargement range is reduced (from left to right in the figure) or expanded (from right to left in the figure).
This is an example of the case. Also at this time, if the number of lines of text that can be displayed simultaneously decreases in the text display area 62 due to an increase in the number of lines of text to be enlarged, the text of the number of lines that cannot be displayed from the bottom line of the displayed text is changed. Is sent out of the display area of the text display area 62. When the number of lines of text that can be simultaneously displayed in the text display area 62 increases due to a decrease in the number of lines of text to be enlarged, texts corresponding to the number of lines that can be newly displayed are read from the text data 311 and displayed. It is additionally displayed in the area 62.

FIG. 7C shows an example in which the enlargement position is changed by moving the enlargement range designation bar 61. The position of the text to be enlarged can be specified in the enlargement range designation bar 6
It changes dynamically as one moves. FIG. 7D illustrates a state where the input cursor 63 is moved when the input cursor tracking flag 41 of the configuration data 309 is “TRUE”. In the text display state shown on the left side of the figure, when the input cursor 63 is moved upward, the enlargement range designation bar 61 and the enlarged display range of the text are changed to the input cursor 6.
3, and the text display state changes as shown on the right side of the figure. Thus, the text at the cursor line is always enlarged.

FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing the difference in display format depending on the value of the text wrap display designation flag. FIG.
(A) is a display example when the text wrapping display designation flag 42 of the configuration data 309 is “FALSE”. In this case, by enlarging the text,
Even if the length of the enlarged one line exceeds the width of the text display area 62, the text is not wrapped. Therefore, the enlarged text exceeding the width of the text display area 62 is not displayed, but a scroll bar for scrolling the display range right and left, for example, by moving the cursor to the right of the figure or displaying the scroll bar is displayed. By operating the scroll bar, the user can also see the text of the part that is not currently displayed.

FIG. 8B is a display example when the text wrap display designation flag is "TRUE". In this case, when the length of one line enlarged by enlarging the text exceeds the width of the text display area 62, the text is folded and displayed at the right end of the text display area 62 as illustrated. By wrapping the text, the display layout is broken, but all the characters on the enlarged line can be viewed at the same time.

Next, the processing procedure in the user input processing 304 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In step 91 of FIG.
It is determined whether or not there has been an input from the user through step 2. If there has been an input from the user, in step 92, the input was an input relating to the change of the enlargement range, that is, an enlargement range designation bar 61, It is determined whether the input is related to the movement of the range upper end pointer 611 or the enlarged range lower end pointer 612, and
It is determined whether the input is related to the vertical movement of the input cursor 63. If neither of them is found, the process returns to step 91.

If the input is the movement of the enlargement range designation bar 61, the flow advances from step 921 to step 96 to call the enlargement range movement processing 305. If the input content is the movement of the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611, step 92
From 2, the process proceeds to step 923 to call the upper end moving process 306. If the input content is the movement of the enlargement range designation lower end pointer 612, the process proceeds from step 922 to step 9
Proceeding to S24, the lower end moving process 307 is called. And
The called expansion range movement processing 305 and the upper end movement processing 3
06, after each process of the lower end moving process 307 is completed, the process returns to waiting for an input from the user again.

If the input is the vertical movement of the cursor 63, the program proceeds from step 93 to step 94.
To extract the input cursor tracking flag 41 from the configuration data 309. If the input cursor tracking flag is "TRUE" in the determination of step 95, the process proceeds to step 96 to call the expansion range moving process 305, otherwise returns to step 91 without doing anything and waits for input from the user again. State. When the enlargement range moving process 305 is completed, the process returns to waiting for an input from the user.

Next, a processing procedure in the enlarged range moving processing 305 will be described with reference to a flowchart of FIG. In step 101 of FIG. 10, it is determined whether or not the input cursor 63 has been moved in the vertical direction. If the input cursor 63 has been moved in the vertical direction, the process proceeds to step 1011, and the display information data 310 is used to display the enlarged text. Data 53 of the starting line and the number of lines of the text enlarged display,
54 of the normal display font size and enlarged display font size data 4 from the configuration data 309.
Take out 3,44. Subsequently, in step 1012, the moving direction of the input cursor 63 is determined. If the input cursor 63 has been moved one line upward, the process proceeds to step 1013, where the value of the text enlarged display start line is shifted to the value representing the position shifted by one line upward. If the input cursor 63 has been moved downward by one line, the process proceeds to step 1014 to recalculate the value of the text enlarged display start line to a value representing a position shifted downward by one line.

Step 1013 or step 101
After recalculation of the text expansion display start line is completed in step 4,
Proceeding to step 1015, the enlargement range designation bar 61 and the enlargement range are determined based on the recalculated text enlarged display start line value, the text enlarged display line number, the normal display font size, and the enlarged display font size value extracted in step 1011. The display positions of the designated upper end pointer 611 and the enlarged range designated lower end pointer 612 on the screen are determined and redisplayed. Next, the process proceeds to step 104, where the recalculated text enlarged display start line is set in the display information data 310, and then the process proceeds to step 105 to call the text display process.

If the enlargement range moving process 305 is called not by the movement of the input cursor 63 but by the movement of the enlargement range designation bar 61, the steps 101 to 1 are executed.
02, first, the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 61
The display position on the screen 1 is taken out. Next, step 10
In step 3, the normal display font size is extracted from the configuration data 309, the text enlargement start line is calculated from this value and the display position of the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611, and the process proceeds to step 104. In step 104, the text enlarged display start line calculated in step 103 is set in the display information data 310, and then the process proceeds to step 105 to call the text display process.

FIG. 11 shows an example of a change of each information when the input cursor 63 is moved upward by one line while the input cursor tracking flag 41 of the configuration data 309 is set to "TRUE", and displayed at that time. The example of a screen is shown. The processing order in FIG. 11 is assumed to be processed in order from top to bottom.

In this example, the third and fourth lines of the text are enlarged and displayed in the initial state, as shown in FIG. At this time, as shown in (c), for example, 10 points are set as the normal font size and 15 points are set as the enlarged display font size in the configuration data 309. In the display information data 310, “3” is set as a text enlarged display start line, and “2” is set as a text enlarged display line number.

Now, as shown in FIG.
It is assumed that the input cursor 63 is moved upward by operating the button 2. Since the moving direction of the input cursor 63 is upward, the enlarged range moving process 305 calculates that the line at which the enlarged display of the text is started is the second line one line higher,
As shown in (d), “2” is set in the text enlarged display start line of the display information data 310. Thereafter, the enlargement range movement processing 305 is performed for the updated display information data 31.
0, and the upper part of the font size of the normal line and the enlarged display line, as shown in FIG.
Then, the display positions of the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611 and the enlargement range designation lower end pointer 612 are determined, and the display is performed again. Subsequently, the text display processing 308 redisplays the text display area 62 as shown in (g) based on the calculated text enlarged display start line and the information extracted from each table, and a desired display is performed. You.

Next, FIG. 12 shows an example of changing each information when the enlargement range designation bar 61 is moved upward by operation of a mouse or the like provided on the input device 302, and an example of a screen displayed at that time. . The processing order in FIG. 12 is assumed to be processed in order from top to bottom similarly to FIG.

In this example, the third and fourth lines of the text are enlarged and displayed in the initial state, as shown in FIG. At this time, as shown in (c), the configuration data 309 includes 10 points as a normal font size,
It is assumed that 15 points are set as the enlarged display font size. The display information data 310 includes
“3” is set as the text enlarged display start line, and “2” is set as the text enlarged display line number.
The display position of the enlarged range designation upper end pointer is 20.

At this time, the enlargement range designation bar 61 has been moved upward as shown in FIG. It is assumed that the position of the enlarged range designation upper end pointer 611 after the movement is 10 on the screen. Then, since the normal display font size is 10, the line from which the enlarged display of the text is started is calculated to be the second line, and the display information data 310 is displayed as shown in (d).
"2" is set in the text enlargement display start line of. Thereafter, the text display processing 303 executes the configuration data 3
Based on the information of the display information 09 and the display information data 310, the text display area 62 is redisplayed as shown in FIG. Thus, a text display in which the second and third lines are enlarged is displayed.

Next, the procedure of the upper end moving process 306 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. FIG.
In 3, first, in step 131, the normal display font size and the enlarged display font size are extracted from the configuration data 309, and then the process proceeds to step 132, where the screen of the enlarged range designation upper pointer 611 and the enlarged range designated lower pointer 612 is displayed. Take out the upper display position.
In step 133, the text enlargement display start line and the number of text enlargement display lines are calculated based on the display positions of the extracted pointers, the normal display font size, and the enlarged display font size. Next, proceeding to step 134, the size of the text display area 62 is acquired, and the number of text enlarged display lines calculated in step 133 and the configuration data 3
The number of text display lines is calculated based on the normal display font size and the enlarged display font size taken out from step S09. After all calculations are completed, in step 135, the calculated text enlarged display start line, the number of enlarged text display lines, and the number of text display lines are set in the display information data 310, and the text display process is called in step 136.

FIG. 14 shows an enlarged range designation upper end pointer 6.
A change example of each information when 11 is moved upward and an example of a screen displayed at that time are shown. Note that the processing order in FIG. 14 is to be processed in order from top to bottom. In this example, as shown in (a), the third and fourth lines of the text are enlarged and displayed in the initial state. At this time,
As shown in (c), assuming that 10 points are set as the normal font size and 15 points are set as the enlarged display font size in the configuration data 309, the display position of the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611 is 20, and the enlargement range is set. The display position of the designated bottom pointer 612 is 35. Further, as shown in (d), in the display information data 310, “3” is set as the text enlarged display start line, and “2” is set as the number of text enlarged display lines.

In this state, it is assumed that the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611 has been moved upward as shown in (b) by operation of a mouse or the like provided on the input device 302. The position of the enlarged range designation upper end pointer 611 on the screen after the movement is 10, the position of the enlarged range designation lower end pointer 612 on the screen is 35, and the normal display font size is 10,
Since the enlarged display font size is 15, it is calculated that the line for starting the enlarged display of the text is the second line, and the number of enlarged display lines of the text is 3 lines. Since the size of the text display area 62 is 70, the number of text display lines is 5
It is calculated as a row. These calculation results are set in the display information data 310 as shown in (e). Thereafter, the text display processing 308 executes the configuration data 309 and the updated display information data 310 shown in FIG.

Next, the procedure of the lower end moving process 307 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. FIG.
In step 151 of FIG.
From 09, the normal display font size and the enlarged display font size are extracted, and then in step 152,
The display positions on the screen of the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611 and the enlargement range designation lower end pointer 612 are extracted. In step 153, the number of text enlarged display lines is calculated from the display position of each extracted pointer and the enlarged display font size. Next, proceeding to step 154, the size of the text display area 62 is obtained, and the text is displayed based on the number of enlarged text display lines calculated in step 153 and the normal display font size and the enlarged display font size extracted from the configuration data 309. Calculate the number of display lines. After all calculations are completed, in step 155, the calculated number of enlarged text display lines and the number of text display lines are set in the display information data 310, and the flow advances to step 156 to call the text display process.

Next, the processing procedure of the text display processing 308 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

Retrieve the text enlarged display start line and the text enlarged display line number. Next, the text display processing 308 performs a loop processing of extracting text information for the number of text display lines one by one from the text data 311 and displaying the text information in the text display area 62.

In the loop processing, first, in step 162, it is determined whether or not the display of the text for the number of text display lines is completed. If the display of the text for the number of text display lines is completed, the text display processing 308 is executed. finish. If the display of the text for the number of text display lines has not been completed, the process proceeds to step 163, where the text data 3
Eleven pieces of text information are extracted line by line from the line indicated by the text display start line. At this time, if it is determined in step 164 that all the text information in the text data 311 has been extracted and the next one line cannot be extracted, the text display processing 308 ends. If the text information can be extracted from the text data 311, it is determined in step 165 whether or not the number of lines of the text information already displayed is smaller than the value of the text enlarged display start line. Is displayed in the text display area 62 without being enlarged.
If the number of lines of the text information that has already been displayed is equal to or greater than the value of the line for starting the text enlarged display, the process proceeds to step 167, and
It is determined whether or not the number of lines of the displayed text information is larger than the value of the text enlarged display start line plus the value of the text enlarged display line. If the determination in step 167 is “YES”, the flow proceeds to step 166 to display the text in the text display area 62 without being enlarged, and if “NO”, the flow proceeds to step 168 to expand the text and expand the text in the text display area 62. To be displayed. When the above processing is completed, step 162 is executed to display the text data of the next line.
And the process is repeated.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to one example, the present invention includes various embodiments other than the above-described example. For example, the case where the text is displayed horizontally on the screen has been described above, but the present invention can be similarly applied to the case where the text is displayed vertically on the screen as shown in FIG. In this case, the enlargement range designation bar 61 is displayed above or below the screen, and instead of the enlargement range designation upper end pointer 611, the enlargement range designation right end pointer 613 is displayed.
Is replaced with the enlargement range designation left end pointer 614 in place of the enlargement range designation lower end pointer 612.

Although the enlargement range designation bar 61 is used for designating the enlargement range of the text in the above example, the enlargement range of the text may be designated by other means. FIG. 18 shows an example of such a case, in which the number of lines of text for enlarging the range to be enlarged is input by a numerical value. In the example of FIG. 18, as an interface for inputting a range to be enlarged, an enlarged line number input dialog 181 is displayed, and the number of lines to be enlarged is designated by a numerical value in the enlarged line number input area 182 to specify the number of lines to be enlarged. are doing.
