Abstract

A cellular telephone set can increase number of display patterns of animation display without occupying large storage region in the memory and without performing setting operation every time. The character presentation means determines character to be displayed in each event screen upon depression of call release button after telephone calling, depression of call release button after telephone call reception, upon occurrence of at least one of presence of not responded call and newly received mail, and upon variation of state between open state and closed state of the first and second casings, depending upon calling history, time of calling, call arriving history, time of call arrival, and timing of detection of variation of state between open state and closed state of the first and second casing by the detecting means.

Claims (15)

1. A cellular telephone set capable of performing animation display of any one of a preliminarily stored plurality of characters, comprising:

character presentation means, upon detection of an event on the cellular telephone set, for controlling animation display of said character depending upon an occurrence timing of a predetermined operation relating to said event,

wherein said character presentation means controls the animation display of said character depending upon particular date and time information preliminarily set in a schedule function, and

in the case that a day is corresponding to the particular date set as the memorial day in the schedule function, said character presentation means performs the animation display of the particular character preliminarily stored,

wherein said character presentation means controls the animation display of said character so as to differentiate patterns depending upon odd number and even number of an occurrence time of said predetermined operation.

2. A character display presentation method of a cellular telephone set capable of performing animation display of any one of a preliminarily stored plurality of characters, comprising:

a first step of detecting an event on the cellular telephone set, and a second step of, upon detection of the event, controlling animation display of said character depending upon an occurrence timing of a predetermined operation relating to said event,

wherein in said second step, the animation display of said character is controlled depending upon particular date and time information preliminarily set in a schedule function, and

in the case that a day is corresponding to the particular date set as the memorial day in the schedule function, said second step performs the animation display of the particular character preliminarily stored,

wherein in said second step, the animation display of said character is controlled so as to differentiate patterns depending upon odd number and even number of an occurrence time of said predetermined operation.

3. A non-transitory storage medium storing a program for executing a character display presentation method of a cellular telephone set capable of performing animation display of any one of a preliminarily stored plurality of characters on a computer, comprising:

a first process of detecting an event on the cellular telephone set, and a second process of, upon detection of the event, controlling animation display of said character depending upon an occurrence timing of a predetermined operation relating to said event,

wherein in said second process, the animation display of said character is controlled depending upon particular date and time information preliminarily set in a schedule function, and

in the case that a day is corresponding to the particular date set as the memorial day in the schedule function, said second process performs the animation display of the particular character preliminarily stored,

wherein in said second process, the animation display of said character is controlled so as to differentiate patterns depending upon odd number and even number of an occurrence time of said predetermined operation.
