Abstract

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes an acquisition processor that acquires position information on a designated position designated by each of a plurality of users, in a sheet displayed in a display, identification information of the each of the plurality of users, and input information input by each of the plurality of users, a first display processor that displays an identification image corresponding to the acquired identification information at a position corresponding to the designated position in the sheet, an importance determiner that determines an importance for every designated position in the sheet, based on the acquired identification information and input information, and a second display processor that displays, based on the determined importance, an object image indicating an important part in the sheet in association with the designated position.

Claims (23)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

an acquisition processor that acquires position information on a plurality of designated positions designated by each of a plurality of users, in a sheet displayed in a display, identification information of each of the plurality of users, and input information input by each of the plurality of users;

a first display processor that displays an identification image corresponding to the identification information acquired by the acquisition processor at positions corresponding to the plurality of designated positions in the sheet;

an important designated position determination processor that calculates a total number of pieces of input information for each of the plurality of designated positions in the same sheet, based on the identification information and the input information acquired by the acquisition processor, and determines, as an important designated position, at least one designated position at which a largest number of pieces of input information in the sheet have been input; and

a second display processor that displays, as an object image, a line image surrounding an important part that is a region corresponding to the important designated position determined by the important designated position determination processor.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second display processor displays the object image at a position corresponding to the designated position determined by the important designated position at which the largest number of pieces of input information have been input, from among the plurality of the designated positions.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the second display processor displays, in the display, a list display screen for displaying a plurality of the sheets in a list format, and displays, in the list display screen, the object image at a position corresponding to the designated position at which the largest number of pieces of input information have been input, for each of the plurality of sheets.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein in the list display screen, the second display processor displays the identification image corresponding to the identification information associated with the designated position at which the largest number of pieces of input information have been input and at least a part of the input information associated with the designated position, in association with the sheet.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the second display processor displays at least the input information having an oldest input date and time input by each of the plurality of users and the input information having a newest input date and time, in association with the sheet, from among a plurality of the input information items associated with the designated position at which the largest number of pieces of input information have been input.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the important designated position determination processor further determines a total number of pieces of input information for each of the plurality of sheets, based on the total number of pieces of input information for every designated position in the sheet, and

the second display processor displays the plurality of sheets in the list display screen, based on the total number of pieces of input information for each of the plurality of sheets determined by the important designated position determination processor.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the object image is an image indicating the designated position at which the largest number of pieces of input information have been input.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second display processor extracts the region surrounded by the object image, and displays the extracted region in an enlarged manner.

9. An information processing method, executed by one or more processors, comprising:

acquiring position information on a plurality of designated positions designated by each of a plurality of users, in a sheet displayed in a display, identification information of each of the plurality of users, and input information input by each of the plurality of users;

displaying an identification image corresponding to the identification information acquired at positions corresponding to the plurality of designated positions in the sheet;

calculating a total number of pieces of input information for each of the plurality of designated positions in the same sheet, based on the identification information and the input information acquired, and determining, as an important designated position, at least one designated position at which a largest number of pieces of input information in the sheet have been input; and

displaying, as an object image, a line image surrounding an important part that is a region corresponding to the important designated position.

10. A non-transitory storage medium for storing an information processing program for causing one or more processors to execute:

acquiring position information on a plurality of designated positions designated by each of a plurality of users, in a sheet displayed in a display, identification information of each of the plurality of users, and input information input by each of the plurality of users;

displaying an identification image corresponding to the identification information acquired at positions corresponding to the plurality of designated positions in the sheet;

calculating a total number of pieces of input information for each of the plurality of designated positions in the same sheet, based on the identification information and the input information acquired, and determining, as an important designated position, at least one designated position at which a largest number of pieces of input information in the sheet have been input; and

displaying, as an object image, a line image surrounding an important part that is a region corresponding to the important designated position.
