Portable terminal device and display control method
A portable terminal device has enclosures with a movable portion, a display section that displays visible information showing an operation target area, and a touch sensor that detects a position on a display screen of the display section touched by a user's finger, or the like. A shape detection section detects a change in the shape of the enclosure; an input operation management section manages a position detected by the touch sensor and an operation target area of each of pieces of visible information displayed on the display section in an associated manner; and a display control section automatically makes a change to at least display positions of the respective pieces of visible information about the operation target displayed on the display section in accordance with a change in shape of the enclosure detected by the shape detection section.
1. A portable terminal device comprising:
a first enclosure; and
a second enclosure, the first enclosure and the second enclosure being slidable relative to each other, wherein the first enclosure and the second enclosure are enabled to occupy a contracted state or an extended state;
a display section provided on the first enclosure; and
a stationary operation section provided on the second enclosure,
wherein the display section is configured to display, when a character is input in the contracted state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, a virtual keyboard and candidates for conversion; and
wherein the display section is configured to display, when the character is input in the extended state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, the candidates for conversion whose lower end position is closer to the stationary operation section than the lower end position of the candidates for conversion displayed in the contracted state, without displaying the virtual keyboard.
2. The portable terminal device according to claim 1 , wherein the display section displays the candidates for conversion which are located at an upper side of the virtual keyboard when the character is input in the contracted state.
3. A portable terminal device comprising:
a first enclosure; and
a second enclosure, the first enclosure and the second enclosure being slidable relative to each other, wherein the first enclosure and the second enclosure are enabled to occupy a contracted state or an extended state;
a display section provided on the first enclosure; and
a stationary operation section provided on the second enclosure,
wherein the display section is configured to display, when a character is input in the contracted state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, a virtual keyboard and candidate character strings; and
wherein the display section is configured to display, when the character is input in the extended state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, the candidate character strings whose lower end position is closer to the stationary operation section than the lower end position of the candidates for conversion displayed in the contracted state, without displaying the virtual keyboard.
4. The portable terminal device according to claim 3 , wherein the display section displays the candidate character strings which are located at an upper side of the virtual keyboard when the character is input in the contracted state.
5. A display control method of a portable terminal device including a first enclosure provided with a display section and a second enclosure provided with a stationary operation section, the first enclosure and the second enclosure being slidable relative to each other such that the first enclosure and the second enclosure are enabled to occupy a contracted state or an extended state, the display control method comprising:
displaying, when a character is input in the contracted state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, a virtual keyboard and candidates for conversion; and
displaying, when a character is input in the extended state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, the candidates for conversion whose lower end position on the display section is closer to the stationary operation section than the lower end position of the candidates for conversion displayed in the contracted state, without displaying the virtual keyboard on the display section.
6. The display control method according to claim 5 , further comprising:
displaying the candidates for conversion which are located at an upper side of the virtual keyboard on the display section when the character is input in the contracted state.
7. A display control method of a portable terminal device including a first enclosure provided with a display section and a second enclosure provided with a stationary operation section, the first enclosure and the second enclosure being slidable relative to each other such that the first enclosure and the second enclosure are enabled to occupy a contracted state or an extended state, the display control method comprising:
displaying, when a character is input in the contracted state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, a virtual keyboard and candidate character strings; and
displaying, when a character is input in the extended state of the first enclosure and the second enclosure, the candidate character strings whose lower end position on the display section is closer to the stationary operation section than the lower end position of the candidates for conversion displayed in the contracted state, without displaying the virtual keyboard on the display section.
8. The display control method according to claim 7 , further comprising:
displaying the candidate character strings which are located at an upper side of the virtual keyboard on the display section when the character is input in the contracted state.
