ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, AND PROGRAM
An electronic apparatus includes a display unit configured to display an image, an operation unit capable of detecting plural input positions, and a control unit. The control unit computes an operation target region that is formed by the plural input positions detected by the operation unit and performs first processing on plural operation targets included in the operation target region and associated with the image displayed on the display unit, according to a change in the area of the operation target region.
1 . An electronic apparatus, comprising:
a display unit configured to display an image;
an operation unit capable of detecting plural input positions; and
a control unit configured to compute an operation target region that is formed by the plural input positions detected by the operation unit, and to perform first processing on plural operation target(s) included in the operation target region and associated with the image displayed on the display unit, according to a change in an area of the operation target region.
2 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the control unit performs the first processing when the area of the operation target region is reduced to a value below a predetermined value.
3 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the first processing is one of processing of merging the plural operation targets, processing of deleting the plural operation target(s), and processing of temporarily deleting the plural operation target(s).
4 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the control unit performs the processing of merging the plural operation target(s) or the processing of deleting the plural operation targets according to a number of the plural input positions that form the operation target region.
5 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 wherein
the control unit performs the processing of deleting the plural operation target(s) or the processing of temporarily deleting the plural operation target(s) according to a number of the plural input positions that form the operation target region.
6 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein
the control unit determines a mode of the processing of merging the plural operation target(s), based on attributes of the plural operation target(s).
7 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
after the control unit has performed processing of merging the plural operation target(s) and then the area of the operation target region has been reduced to a value below the predetermined value, the control unit deletes the plural operation target(s) when the input positions that form the operation target region move to a region associated with execution of data deletion.
8 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
after the area of the operation target region has been reduced to a value below the predetermined value, the control unit performs second processing in place of the first processing when the input positions that form the operation target region move to a specific function region associated with execution of a predetermined function.
9 . A control method for an electronic apparatus, comprising:
using the electronic apparatus which comprises:
a display unit configured to display an image; and
an operation unit capable of detecting plural input positions;
the control method further comprising:
computing an operation target region that is formed by the plural input positions detected by the operation unit;
detecting a change in an area of the operation target region; and
performing first processing on plural operation target(s) included in the operation target region and associated with the image displayed on the display unit, according to a change in the area of the operation target region.
10 . A computer readable non-transitory medium storing a program for a computer configured to control an electronic apparatus, wherein the program executes by using the electronic apparatus comprising:
a display unit configured to display an image; and
an operation unit capable of detecting plural input positions;
the program causing the computer to execute processing of:
computing an operation target region that is formed by the plural input positions detected by the operation unit;
detecting a change in an area of the operation target region; and
performing first processing on plural operation target(s) included in the operation target region and associated with the image displayed on the display unit, according to a change in the area of the operation target region.
11 . The electronic apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein
the second processing is processing of deleting the plural target(s) that have been selected or processing of temporarily deleting the plural selected targets.
12 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein
in performing the first processing, the first processing is performed when the area of the operation target region is reduced to a value below a predetermined value.
13 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein
the first processing is one of processing of merging the plural operation target(s), processing of deleting the plural operation target(s), and processing of temporarily deleting the plural operation target(s).
14 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 9 , further comprising:
performing the processing of merging the plural operation target(s) or the processing of deleting the plural operation target(s) according to the number of the plural input positions that form the operation target region.
15 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 9 , further comprising:
performing the processing of deleting the plural operation target(s) or the processing of temporarily deleting the plural operation target(s) according to the number of the plural input positions that form the operation target region.
16 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein
a mode of the processing of merging the plural operation target(s) is determined, based on attributes of the plural operation target(s).
17 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 9 , further comprising:
after the processing of merging the plural operation target(s) has been executed and then the area of the operation target region has been reduced to a value below the predetermined value, deleting the plural operation target(s) when the input positions that form the operation target region move to a region associated with execution of data deletion.
18 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 9 , further comprising:
after the area of the operation target region has been reduced to a value below the predetermined value, performing second processing in place of the first processing when the input positions that form the operation target region move to a specific function region associated with execution of a predetermined function.
19 . The control method for an electronic apparatus according to claim 18 , wherein
the second processing is processing of deleting the plural target(s) that have been selected or processing of temporarily deleting the plural selected target(s).
