In the cases (a) to (e), the icon to be combined is the icon that is the start point, the icon that is included in the multiple icons that are the start point, the icon that is close to the end point or the end point, or the end point or the end point And an icon included in the multiple icons close to.

  When there are a plurality of the same icons as the icons to be combined, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 stores only one piece of information corresponding to the icon. For example, in the case of (b) above, two individual icons (individual icons α, β) including a black pen icon are displayed, one individual icon (individual icon γ) including a blue pen icon is displayed, and a blue pen is displayed. When one composite icon (composite icon δ) including an icon and a red pen icon is displayed, a touch operation starting from the individual icon α, a touch operation starting from the individual icon β, and the composite icon δ starting point When the multi-touch operation including the touch operation is performed and the multi-touch operation is a pinch-in such that the end point of each touch operation is within the individual icon γ, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 converts the black pen icon Corresponding black pen setting information, blue pen setting information corresponding to the blue pen icon, and red pen setting information corresponding to the red pen icon. Store one by one. These pieces of information are grouped and stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352.

  The composite setting image generation unit 1352 can generate a plurality of composite icons. The composite setting image generation unit 1352 assigns integer label values m sequentially from 1 each time a composite icon is generated, groups information corresponding to the icons included in each composite icon, and stores it as group information. To do. For example, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 stores black pen setting information and red pen setting information as group information with a label value m = 1, and black pen setting information and red pen as group information with a label value m = 2. Setting information and blue pen setting information are stored, and black pen setting information, red pen setting information, blue pen setting information, and eraser setting information are stored as group information with a label value m = 3. In this case, the composite icon corresponding to the label value m = 1 is a composite icon including a black pen icon and a red pen icon, and the composite icon corresponding to the label value m = 2 is a black pen icon and a red pen icon. A composite icon including a blue pen icon, and a composite icon corresponding to the label value m = 3 is a composite icon including a black pen icon, a red pen icon, a blue pen icon, and an eraser icon.

  The composite setting image generation unit 1352 can delete the stored group information. When deleting any group information, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 shifts the label value m toward the smaller group information so that the label value m does not become discontinuous. For example, in the above case, when deleting the group information with the label value m = 2, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 keeps the group information with the label value m = 1, and sets the group information with the label value m = 2. , Black pen setting information, red pen setting information, blue pen setting information, and eraser setting information.

  8A shows a composite icon 500a including two icons, FIG. 8B shows a composite icon 500b including three icons, and FIG. 8C shows a composite icon including four icons. 500c is shown. The composite icon 500a includes a black pen icon 501a, a red pen icon 502a, a drag bar 503a, and an x button 504a. The composite icon 500b includes a black pen icon 501b, a red pen icon 502b, a blue pen icon 503b, a drag bar 504b, and an x button 505b. The composite icon 500c includes a black pen icon 501c, a red pen icon 502c, a blue pen icon 503c, an eraser icon 504c, a drag bar 505c, and an x button 506c. The black pen icons 501a, 501b, and 501c are the same images as the black pen icons in the toolbar, or images obtained by enlarging or reducing the black pen icons in the toolbar. The red pen icons 502a, 502b, and 502c are the same images as the red pen icons in the toolbar, or images obtained by enlarging or reducing the red pen icons in the toolbar. The blue pen icons 503b and 503c are the same images as the blue pen icons in the toolbar, or images obtained by enlarging or reducing the blue pen icons in the toolbar. The eraser icon 504c is the same image as the eraser icon in the toolbar, or an image obtained by enlarging or reducing the eraser icon in the toolbar.

  When the icons in the composite icon are first displayed, they are arranged in a predetermined initial arrangement, and can be arbitrarily rearranged by the user thereafter. Arrangement information of each icon in the composite icon is also stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 as group information.

  The initial arrangement of each icon in the composite icon is determined by icon coordinate values stored in advance in the composite setting image generation unit 1352. FIG. 9 shows an icon map M for explaining icon coordinate values. The icon map M is a one-to-one correspondence between each icon and an icon coordinate value that is an ij coordinate value. The icon map M is conceptual, and the composite setting image generation unit 1352 does not need to store the icon map M. In addition, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 does not need to store the icon and the icon coordinate value in direct correspondence, and stores information indicating the function corresponding to the icon and the icon coordinate value in association with each other. That's fine. For example, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 may store the black pen icon in association with the icon coordinate value (0, 0), or store the icon coordinate value (0 in the black pen setting information corresponding to the black pen icon). , 0) may be stored in correspondence.

  The composite setting image generation unit 1352 determines the initial arrangement of each icon in the composite icon using such icon coordinate values. For example, when the number of icons in the composite icon is 2 × n (n is a natural number) and less than 2 × (n + 1), the composite setting image generation unit 1352 displays the icons in n rows in the composite icon. Determine the initial placement to align. When n is 1, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 determines the initial arrangement so that an icon having a smaller i coordinate value of the icon coordinate value is on the left side in the composite icon. In addition, when n is 1, if there are a plurality of icons having the same i-coordinate value of the icon coordinate value, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 causes the icon with a smaller j-coordinate value of the icon coordinate value to move to the left in the composite icon. The initial arrangement is determined so that When n is 2 or more, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 determines the initial arrangement so that the icon with the smaller i coordinate value of the icon coordinate value is set to the left side in the composite icon and to the upper side in the left side. . When n is 2 or more and there are a plurality of icons having the same i-coordinate value of the icon coordinate value, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 causes the icon with a smaller j-coordinate value of the icon coordinate value to be included in the composite icon. The initial arrangement is determined so that the left side is the upper side and the left side is the upper side.

  Note that, based on the icon coordinate values stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352, the all setting image display control unit 1341 displays the toolbars 300A and 300B. For example, the all setting image display control unit 1341 displays the left half of the icon map M on the toolbar 300A and the right half on the toolbar 300B.

  In order to rearrange the icons in the composite icon, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 may perform flicking with one icon in the composite icon being displayed as the start point and the other icon as the end point. Thereby, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 replaces the placement information of the one icon and the placement information of the other icon, and the composite icon in which the position of the one icon and the position of the other icon are replaced. Generate. The composite icon after replacement is displayed by the composite setting image display control unit 1353.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353 uses the information stored in the touch operation information management unit 1311 in the above (a) to (e), and performs the touch operation performed in the above (a) to (e). A composite setting image display area close to the end point is set within a predetermined range in which a distance from the position of the end point is determined in advance, and a composite icon generated by the composite setting image generation unit 1352 over the entire composite setting image display area. Is displayed.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353 displays the composite icon when the calling condition determination unit 1354 determines that the composite icon calling condition is satisfied. The calling condition determination unit 1354 uses information stored in the touch operation information management unit 1311 to determine whether or not the touch operation performed by the user satisfies a predetermined complex icon calling condition. The composite icon calling condition may be any condition, but as described later, it may be a condition that the composite icon is not displayed when the user performs a touch operation to draw a specific figure. preferable.

  The composite icon calling condition is, for example, a specific time (predetermined time) when one or more pieces of group information are stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 and composite icons corresponding to all the group information are not being displayed. That is, three consecutive touch operations (triple taps) are performed within a predetermined range (condition determination range) within the condition determination time. More specifically, the composite icon calling condition is, for example, when the group information is stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 and the composite icon corresponding to all the group information is not being displayed. Within the condition determination range centered on the start point of the first touch operation (1st touch operation), the start point and end point of the second touch operation (2nd touch operation) of the triple taps, and the third time of the triple taps The touch operation (3rd touch operation) has a start point and an end point, and the time from the start of the 1st touch operation to the end of the 3rd touch operation is within the condition determination time. The condition determination time is, for example, 0.2 seconds to 1 second. The condition determination range is a range of 0 cm to 1 cm distance on the screen centering on the start point of the 1st touch operation. If the pixel pitch of the screen is 0.5 mm, this distance is 0 pixel to 20 pixels. It is. The condition judgment time and the condition judgment range are set in this way when the user performs a touch operation to draw a two-point reader “..., A three-point reader“. This is to prevent the composite icon from being displayed because the operation satisfies the composite icon calling condition.

  It should be noted that the calling condition determination unit 1354 may be configured to execute individual taps when no group information is stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352, or when no composite icon is being displayed and a triple tap is performed. It is determined that the icon calling condition is satisfied.

  Since the touch detection unit 12 is configured to be capable of multi-touch operation, the second user performs an operation outside the condition determination range while the first user performs the 1st to 3rd touch operation within the condition determination range. In some cases, a touch operation may be performed. Even in such a case, the calling condition determination unit 1354 determines that the triple tap including the 1st to 3rd touch operations satisfies the complex icon calling condition or the individual icon calling. In addition, in order to prevent the three taps from being drawn on the screen by the triple tap, the calling condition determination unit 1354 determines that the triple tap satisfies the complex icon calling condition or the individual icon calling condition. It is preferable to use the information stored in the touch operation information management unit 1311 to control the figure drawing unit 1312 so that the three dot-like figures corresponding to the triple tap are not drawn on the screen.

  As described above, the calling condition determination unit 1354 determines that the composite icon calling condition is not satisfied when the composite icons corresponding to all the group information stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 are already displayed. . In order to make this determination, the calling condition determination unit 1354 stores the label value m of the group corresponding to the composite icon being displayed.

  When the calling condition determination unit 1354 determines that the composite icon calling condition is satisfied, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 uses the information stored in the touch operation information management unit 1311 to set the start point of the first touch operation of the triple tap. An area within a specific range in which the distance from the position is predetermined is set as a composite setting image display area, and the composite icon generated by the composite setting image generation unit 1352 is displayed over the entire composite setting image display area. The composite setting image display area has, for example, sides parallel to the X direction and the Y direction, and the length of the diagonal line is 5 cm to 15 cm on the screen (100 pixels to 300 pixels if the pixel pitch is 0.5 mm). Is a rectangular area. The center point of this rectangular composite setting image display area is, for example, a circle whose center is the start point of the 1st touch operation and whose radius is 30 cm (600 pixels in terms of the number of pixels when the pixel pitch is 0.5 mm). Any point within the shape region.

FIG. 10 shows a composite icon displayed on the screen of the display unit 11. In FIG. 10, the starting point of the 1st touch operation is indicated by a reference sign Q, and the circular region is indicated by R. The composite setting image display control unit 1353 sets a rectangular composite setting image display region R ₀ on the screen of the display unit 11 and displays a composite icon over the entire composite setting image display region R ₀ . A composite icon 600 shown in FIG. 10 includes four icons, a black pen icon 601, a red pen icon 602, a blue pen icon 603, and an eraser icon 604, a drag bar 605, and an x button 606. The composite setting image display control unit 1353 displays an icon representing display setting information stored in the display setting storage unit 133 (hereinafter, referred to as “stored icon”) in the composite icon. As shown in Fig. 4, the storage icon is displayed with a bold line. Note that the individual setting image display control unit 1351 also displays the storing icon by enclosing it with a bold line when there is a storing icon in the individual icon.

  As described above, when the user performs a triple tap satisfying the composite icon calling condition, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 calls the composite icon near the start point of the 1st touch operation on the screen. When there are a plurality of group information items stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 stores the group information corresponding to the composite icon being displayed, which is stored in the calling condition determination unit 1354. Of the label values m other than the label value m, the composite icon corresponding to the group information of the maximum label value m is called. In addition, when a composite icon is already displayed, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 calls the other composite icon so that it does not overlap with the composite icon that is already displayed. .

  Even if the triple tap is performed, if the composite icon calling condition is satisfied, the calling condition determining unit 1354 does not determine the condition. Instead, if it is determined that the individual icon calling condition is satisfied, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 is determined. Instead, the individual setting image display control unit 1351 operates. Specifically, when the calling condition determination unit 1354 determines that the individual icon calling condition is satisfied, the individual icon display control unit 1351 uses the information stored in the touch operation information management unit 1311 to perform the first touch of the triple tap. An area within a specific range in which the distance from the start point of the operation is predetermined is set as an individual setting image display area, and individual icons are displayed over the entire individual setting image display area. The individually set image display area has, for example, sides parallel to the X direction and the Y direction, and the length of the diagonal line is 2 cm to 7 cm on the screen (40 pixels to 140 pixels if the pixel pitch is 0.5 mm). Is a rectangular area. The center point of this rectangular composite setting image display area is, for example, a circle whose center is the start point of the 1st touch operation and whose radius is 30 cm (600 pixels in terms of the number of pixels when the pixel pitch is 0.5 mm). Any point within the shape region.

In the above case, the icon included in the individual icon called by the individual setting image display control unit 1351 is a stored icon. When the icon coordinate value of the stored icon is (i ₁ , j ₁ ), the individually set image display control unit 1351 uses icon coordinate values (i ₁ , MOD (j ₁ +1, An icon corresponding to 5)) may be displayed. Here, MOD (A, B) represents a remainder of A / B, for example, MOD (6, 5) = 1.

In the above case, when no group information is stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352, the composite setting image display unit 1351 displays the composite setting image display instead of the individual setting image display control unit 1351 after the composite setting image generation unit 1352 operates. The control unit 1353 may be configured to operate. Specifically, the composite setting image generation unit 1352 groups the information corresponding to the stored icon and the information corresponding to other icons other than the stored icon to store the group information. A composite icon including an icon is generated, and then the composite setting image display control unit 1353 calls the composite icon in the same manner as when the composite icon calling condition is satisfied. The number of other icons may be one, two, or three or more. For example, when the icon coordinate value of the stored icon is (i ₁ , j ₁ ), the other icon is an icon corresponding to the icon coordinate value (i ₁ , MOD (j ₁ +1, 5)), and the icon coordinate value. The icon corresponding to (MOD (i ₁ +1, 4), j ₁ ) and the icon corresponding to the icon coordinate value (MOD (i ₁ +1, 4), MOD (j ₁ +1, 5)) It may be an icon.

  The individual setting image display control unit 1351 calls the individual icon even when the display setting information is changed by the second display setting changing unit 1357 described later based on the touch operation on the composite icon. Specifically, when the display setting information is changed by the second display setting changing unit 1357, the individual setting image display control unit 1351 displays the composite icon on which the touch operation is performed for changing the display setting information. An individual setting image display area is set adjacently, and an individual icon is displayed over the entire individual setting image display area. The icons included in the individual icons are icons corresponding to the display setting information stored in the display setting storage unit 133 before the display setting information is changed.

  Next, functions of the second acquisition determination unit 1355, the second position determination unit 1356, and the second display setting change unit 1357 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the processing after the triple tap is performed.

  In step S1, the calling condition determining unit 1354 determines whether the triple tap satisfies the composite icon calling condition or the individual icon calling condition. If the composite icon calling condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S2, and if the individual icon calling condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S3.

  In step S2, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 displays a composite icon. In step S3, the individual setting image display control unit 1351 displays individual icons.

  In step S4, the second acquisition determination unit 1355 determines whether or not the position information has been acquired by the touch detection unit 12 while the individual icons are displayed on the screen. When the second acquisition determination unit 1355 determines that the position information has been acquired while the individual icon is displayed on the screen, the process proceeds to step S5, and the position information is displayed while the individual icon is displayed on the screen. When the second acquisition determination unit 1355 does not determine that the display setting information is acquired, the display setting information stored in the display setting storage unit 133 is not changed.

  In step S5, the second position determining unit 1356 determines whether or not the position indicated by the position information is in another icon corresponding to the display setting information other than the stored icon in the multiple icons. I do. If the second position determination unit 1356 determines that it is in another icon corresponding to the display setting information in step S5, the process proceeds to step S6, and in step S5, it is in another icon corresponding to the display setting information. When the second position determination unit 1356 does not determine, the display setting information stored in the display setting storage unit 133 is not changed.

  In step S6, the second display setting changing unit 1357 changes the display setting information stored in the display setting storage unit 133 to display setting information corresponding to the icon indicated by the acquired position information. As described above, when the display setting information is changed by a touch operation on another icon and the other icon is in the composite icon, it is stored in the display setting storage unit 133 before the display setting information is changed. The individual icon including the icon corresponding to the displayed display setting information is displayed adjacent to the composite icon by the individual setting image display control unit 1351.

  If the second position determination unit 1356 determines in step S5 that the position where the touch operation has been performed is an icon that does not correspond to the display setting information in the individual icon or the toolbar, the control unit 13 The function corresponding to the icon indicated by the acquired position information is executed. In step S5, when the second position determination unit 1356 determines that the position where the touch operation is performed is within the X button in the individual icon, the individual setting image display control unit 1351 or the composite setting image display control is performed. The unit 1353 deletes the multiple icons. In step S5, when the second position determination unit 1356 determines that the position where the touch operation is performed is in the drag bar in the single icon, the individual setting image display control unit 1351 or the composite setting image display control is performed. The unit 1353 slides the individual icons with a vector from the start point to the end point of the touch operation.

  According to the second changing unit 135, the composite icon or the individual icon can be called by performing a triple tap as described above, and the touch operation is performed on the called composite icon or the icon in the individual icon. Thus, the function corresponding to the icon can be executed, and the display setting information can be changed. Further, the second changing unit 135 can change the display mode of the composite icon as described below.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353 can cause the composite setting image generation unit 1352 to generate a composite icon in a compact form and display the compact composite icon. FIG. 12 shows a compact composite icon. FIG. 12 corresponds to FIG. 8, and a compact composite icon 700a shown in FIG. 12 (a) is a compact version of the composite icon 500a shown in FIG. 8 (a), and a compact composite icon 700a shown in FIG. 12 (b). The icon 700b is a compact version of the composite icon 500b shown in FIG. 8B, and the compact composite icon 700c shown in FIG. 12C is a compact version of the composite icon 500c shown in FIG. 8C. .

  In the compact composite icon 700a, the black pen icon 701a has the same size as the black pen icon 501a of the composite icon 500a, and the red pen icon 702a reduces the red pen icon 502a to about 1/5 to 1/3 both vertically and horizontally. It is displayed so as to be superimposed on the black pen icon 701a. In the compact composite icon 700b, the black pen icon 701b has the same size as the black pen icon 501b of the composite icon 500b, and the red pen icon 702b and the blue pen icon 703b both have the red pen icon 502b and the blue pen icon 503b both vertically and horizontally. The size is reduced to about 1/5 to 1/3, and is displayed over the black pen icon 701b. In the compact composite icon 700c, the black pen icon 701c is the same size as the black pen icon 501c of the composite icon 500c, and the red pen icon 702c, the blue pen icon 703c, and the eraser icon 704c are the red pen icon 502c and the blue pen. The icon 503c and the eraser icon 504c are reduced to about 1/5 to 1/3 both vertically and horizontally, and are displayed over the black pen icon 701c.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353 changes the composite icon to a compact composite icon and displays it when, for example, a long press single tap is performed outside the drag bar and the x button in the composite icon. In addition, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 changes the compact composite icon to a composite icon and displays it when a long tap single tap is performed outside the drag bar and the x button in the compact composite icon, for example. Let Note that the composite setting image display control unit 1353 may be configured to perform compactification or cancel compaction by touch operations other than these. For example, when a flick is performed with one icon in the composite icon as the start point and the other icon as the end point, the composite icon is displayed instead of switching the position of the one icon and the position of the other icon. The composite setting image display control unit 1353 may be configured to be compact.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353 displays, in a compact composite icon, an icon having a smaller j coordinate value out of icons having a smaller icon coordinate value and a smaller icon. However, when the icon to be displayed is included in the composite icon, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 displays the stored icon in a large size and displays other icons in a small size. In this case, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 displays the stored icon by surrounding it with a bold line so that it can be easily understood that it is the stored icon.

  As described above, the composite icon display control unit 1353 downsizes the composite icon, so that the display area of the composite icon on the screen of the display unit 11 can be reduced. In addition, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 notifies the user of the display setting information stored in the display setting storage unit 133 by displaying the stored icon large and displaying other icons small in the compact composite icon. can do. When a single tap is performed on an icon other than the stored icon in the compact composite icon, and as a result, the stored display setting information is changed to the display setting information corresponding to the other icon, the other icon The icon is displayed in a large size, and a change in display setting information can be notified to the user.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353 can erase the composite icon being displayed, and can cause the individual setting image display control unit 1351 to display all the icons included in the composite icon as individual icons. For example, when a multi-touch operation having two or more start points is performed except in the drag bar and the x button in the composite icon, the multi-touch operation causes the two or more end points to be outside the composite icon. In the case of a pinch out, the composite icon is deleted by the composite setting image display control unit 1353, the group information corresponding to the composite icon is deleted from the composite setting image generation unit 1352, and the individual setting image display control unit 1351 is displayed. Thus, each individual icon including an icon corresponding to each information included in the group information is displayed near the end point of the pinch out.

  In addition, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 causes the individual setting image display control unit 1351 to display any of the icons included in the composite icon as an individual icon, and newly extracts the icon from the composite icon. This composite icon can be generated by the composite setting image generator 1352 and the new composite icon can be displayed. For example, when a flick is performed such that the start point is within the icon within the composite icon and the end point is outside the composite icon, the individual icon including the icon that is the start point is displayed at the position close to the end point. The group information corresponding to the composite icon is deleted from the composite setting image generation unit 1352 and displayed by the control unit 1351, and the information obtained by removing the information corresponding to the icon in the individual icon from the group information is newly added to the group. Is stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 as group information, a new composite icon corresponding to the new group information is generated by the composite setting image generation unit 1352, and the new composite icon is almost the same as the original composite icon. It is displayed by the composite setting image display control unit 1353 at the same position. When the end point of the flick is in another multiple icon outside the composite icon, the individual icon is displayed by the individual setting image display control unit 1351 instead of the individual icon. A composite icon including the icons is generated by the composite setting image generation unit 1352 and displayed by the individual setting image display control unit 1351.

  In the composite setting image display control unit 1353, the group information stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 is 2 or more, one or more composite icons are being displayed, and one or more composite icons are not being displayed. In this case, the composite icon being displayed can be changed to a composite icon not being displayed. For example, when the group information stored in the composite setting image generation unit 1352 is 2 or more, one or more composite icons are being displayed, and one or more composite icons are not being displayed, the composite being displayed is displayed. When a triple tap is performed outside the drag bar and the x button in the icon, the composite setting image display control unit 1353 changes the composite icon being displayed to a composite icon that is not being displayed. The newly displayed composite icon is the composite icon having the largest label value m among the composite icons that have not been displayed.

  The composite setting image display control unit 1353, when a touch operation for drawing is performed, for example, when a flick outside the toolbar and the individual icons is performed, all the displayed icons including only the icon corresponding to the display setting information are displayed. The display of the composite icon is interrupted, and after completion of the flick, the display of all composite icons whose display has been interrupted is resumed. Similarly, the individual setting image display control unit 1351 includes only an icon corresponding to the display setting information when a touch operation for drawing, for example, a flick outside the toolbar and the individual icons is performed. The display of all the individual icons is interrupted, and after the flick is finished, the display of all the individual icons whose display is interrupted is resumed.

  In this way, while the touch operation for drawing is performed, the individual icons including only the icon corresponding to the display setting information are not displayed so that the individual icons do not interfere with the drawing. Can do. For multiple icons including icons corresponding to functions other than the display setting information change, such as icons corresponding to the file saving function, the display operation is not interrupted, so that the touch operation for drawing is completed. Even if it takes time to resume the display of the individual icons, the icons in the individual icons whose display is not interrupted can perform functions other than changing the display setting information such as saving a file. Note that the composite setting image display control unit 1353 and the individual setting image display control unit 1351 may be configured so as to interrupt the display of individual icons including icons corresponding to functions other than the display setting information change.

  As described above, according to the second changing unit 135, the display mode of the composite icon or the individual icon can be changed. Further, the second changing unit 135 is displayed by the changed work area setting unit 1358, the setting image changing unit 1359, the first changing condition determining unit 1360, and the second changing condition determining unit 1361 described below. It is possible to change the icon in the icon to another icon.

The change work area setting unit 1358 sets the icon change work area within a predetermined distance range from the individual setting image display area while the individual icon is displayed by the individual setting image display control unit 1351. FIG. 13 shows an example of the icon change work area. As shown in FIG. 13, the changed work area setting unit 1358 has a rectangular individual setting image display area so that the individual setting image display area where the individual icon P including the red pen icon is displayed is sandwiched vertically and horizontally. adjacent to the four sides, four icons change work area P ₁ is set. Hereinafter, the individual sets the rectangular icon changing quadrant P ₁ adjacent to the sides of the top of the image display area referred to as A region, a rectangular icon change work area adjacent to the sides under the individual setting image display area P referred to ₁ and B region, a rectangular icon changing quadrant P ₁ adjacent to the left side of the individual setting image display area referred to as C region, rectangular icon adjacent to the right side of the individual setting image display area the change work area _{P 1} is referred to as a D region.

  When the touch operation is performed while the individual icon is displayed, the setting image change unit 1359 determines that the first change condition determination unit 1360 or the second change condition determination unit 1361 satisfies the touch operation that satisfies the condition. Based on the touch operation, the icon in the individual icon is changed to a different icon. A method of changing icons by the setting image changing unit 1359 will be described later.

  The first change condition determination unit 1360 displays a first change condition in which the touch operation is predetermined when the touch operation is performed on the icon change work area adjacent to the individual icon while the individual icon is displayed. Judge whether to meet or not. The first change condition is that the touch operation becomes a flick that starts in any one of the areas A to D and ends in an area that faces the area that is the starting point. For example, when a flick is performed while the individual icon is displayed, the first change condition determination unit 1360 satisfies the first change condition when a flick is performed that starts in the A area adjacent to the individual icon and ends in the B area. Based on the determination result, the setting image changing unit 1359 changes the icon in the individual icon to a different icon.

  The second change condition determination unit 1361 performs a touch operation on the icon change work area adjacent to the individual icon for which the icon has been changed after the icon change by the setting image change unit 1359. In addition, it is determined whether or not the touch operation satisfies a predetermined second change condition. The second change condition is that after the icon is changed by the setting image changing unit 1359, a single tap is performed within a predetermined repeat determination time, and the start point and end point of the single tap are the end points of the previous flick. This is within the icon change work area. For example, by performing a flick that starts in the C area and ends in the D area, the setting image changing unit 1359 changes the icon in the individual icon to a different icon, and then repeats within a predetermined repeat determination time. When a single tap is performed in the area D, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines that the second change condition is satisfied, and based on the determination result, the setting image change unit 1359 further displays the changed icon. Change to a different icon. The repeat determination time is, for example, 0.2 seconds to 3 seconds.

A method of changing icons by the setting image changing unit 1359 will be described. When the first change condition is satisfied and the icon is changed, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icon in the individual icon on the icon map M shown in FIG. 9 in the reverse direction of the flick direction. Specifically, when the icon coordinate value corresponding to the icon in the individual icon is (i ₂ , j ₂ ), a downward flick is performed with the start in the A area and the end in the B area. Sometimes, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icon in the individual icon upward on the icon map M, that is, changes the icon to the icon corresponding to the icon coordinate value (i ₂ , MOD (j ₂ −1, 5)). To do. When an upward flick is performed with the B area as the start point and the A area as the end point, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icon in the individual icon downward on the icon map M, that is, the icon coordinates. Change to an icon corresponding to the value (i ₂ , MOD (j ₂ +1, 5)). When a rightward flick is performed with the start point in the C region and the end point in the D region, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icons in the individual icons to the left on the icon map M, that is, the icon coordinates. Change to an icon corresponding to the value (MOD (i ₂ −1, 4), j ₂ ). When a leftward flick is performed with the start point in the D region and the end point in the C region, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icon in the individual icon to the right on the icon map M, that is, the icon coordinates. Change to an icon corresponding to the value (MOD (i ₂ +1, 4), j ₂ ).

  Next, a case where the icon is changed when the second change condition is satisfied will be described. When the second change condition is satisfied and the icon is changed, the setting image changing unit 1359 is on the icon map M illustrated in FIG. 9 in the reverse direction of the flick immediately before the single tap satisfying the second change condition. Shift icons within individual icons. That is, the icon change by the previous flick is repeated.

For example, when the icon coordinate value corresponding to the icon in the individual icon is (i ₂ , j ₂ ), a downward flick is performed with the start point in the A region and the end point in the B region. Immediately after the icon in the individual icon is changed to an icon corresponding to the icon coordinate value (i ₂ , MOD (j ₂ −1, 5)), the setting image is changed when a single tap is performed in the B area. the part 1359, an icon corresponding to the icon coordinates _{(i 2, MOD (j 2} -1,5)) is changed to the icon corresponding to the icon coordinates _{(i 2, MOD (j 2} -2,5)) Is done. If a single tap is further performed in the B area immediately after the icon corresponding to the icon coordinate value (i ₂ , MOD (j ₂ −2, 5)) is changed in this way, the setting image changing unit by 1359, the icon corresponding to the icon coordinates _{(i 2, MOD (j 2} -2,5)) is changed to the corresponding icon to the icon coordinates _{(i 2, MOD (j 2} -3,5)) The

In step T5, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether the start point and the end point of the touch operation are within the same icon change work area. If they are the same, the process proceeds to step T21, and if they are different, the process proceeds to step T6.

  In Step T6, the first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether the start point of the touch operation is in the B area and the end point of the touch operation is in the A area. That is, first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether or not the touch operation is an upward flick. If it is an upward flick, the process proceeds to step T10, and if it is not an upward flick, the process proceeds to step T7.

  In step T7, the first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether the start point of the touch operation is in the A area and the end point of the touch operation is in the B area. That is, first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether or not the touch operation is a downward flick. If it is a downward flick, it will progress to step T12, and if it is not a downward flick, it will progress to step T8.

  In Step T8, the first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether the start point of the touch operation is in the D region and the end point of the touch operation is in the C region. That is, the first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether the touch operation is a leftward flick. If it is a leftward flick, the process proceeds to step T14, and if it is not a leftward flick, the process proceeds to step T9.

  In step T9, the first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether the start point of the touch operation is in the C area and the end point of the touch operation is in the D area. That is, the first change condition determination unit 1360 determines whether or not the touch operation is a rightward flick. If it is a rightward flick, the process proceeds to step T16, and if it is not a rightward flick, the process proceeds to step T20.

  In step T10, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icons in the displayed individual icons downward. In step T11, the second change condition determination unit 1361 sets the area A as a target area for a touch operation for repeating the downward shift, and proceeds to step T18.

  In step T12, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icon in the displayed individual icon upward. In Step T13, the second change condition determination unit 1361 sets the area B as a target area for touch operation for repeating the upward shift, and proceeds to Step T18.

  In step T14, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icons in the displayed individual icons to the right. In Step T15, the second change condition determination unit 1361 sets the area C as a target area for touch operation for repeating the shift to the right, and proceeds to Step T18.

  In step T16, the setting image changing unit 1359 shifts the icons in the displayed individual icons to the left. In Step T17, the second change condition determination unit 1361 sets the D area as a target area for touch operation for repeating the shift to the left, and the process proceeds to Step T18.

  In step T18, the second change condition determination unit 1361 sets the repeat flag to ON. In step T19, the second change condition determination unit 1361 sets the timer to 0 seconds and returns to step T3. The timer set to 0 seconds adds the time after the set time.

  In Step T21, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether or not the repeat flag is ON. If it is ON, the process proceeds to step T22, and if it is OFF, the process proceeds to step T20. In step T22, second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether or not the timer time is within the repeat determination time. The repeat determination time is, for example, 0.5 seconds. If it is within the repeat determination time, the process proceeds to step T23, and if it exceeds the repeat determination time, the process proceeds to step T20.

  In step T23, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether the target area for the touch operation to be repeated is the A area and whether the start point of the touch operation is in the A area. If it is A area, it will progress to step T10, and if it is other than A area, it will progress to step T24.

  In step T24, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether the target area for the touch operation for repeating is the B area and whether the start point of the touch operation is in the B area. If it is B area, it will progress to step T12, and if it is other than B area, it will progress to step T25.

  In Step T25, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether the target area for the touch operation for repeating is the C area and whether the start point of the touch operation is in the C area. If it is C area, it will progress to step T14, and if it is other than C area, it will progress to step T26.

  In Step T <b> 26, the second change condition determination unit 1361 determines whether the target area for the touch operation for repeating is the D area and whether the start point of the touch operation is in the D area. If it is D area, it will progress to step T16, and if it is other than D area, it will progress to step T20.

  The display system 10 uses the changed work area setting unit 1358, the setting image change unit 1359, the first change condition determination unit 1360, and the second change condition determination unit 1361 in the individual icons.
