Electronic device, storage medium and method for operating electronic device
First Claim
1. An electronic device comprising:
- a display;
a touch panel configured to detect a touch operation to the display; and
at least one processor configured to, in a cursor display mode in which the display displays a cursor,during a continuous touch operation that moves a contact point across the display, move the cursor on the display, such that the movement of the cursor is greater than the movement of the contact point for as long as the continuous touch operation is not released,when the contact point of the continuous touch operation remains motionless for a non-zero predetermined time period,display an image, comprising an enlarged portion of a display screen surrounding the cursor on the display, in a foreground of the display so as to overlap the display screen as a background of the display, andreduce a luminance of the display screen as the background, so as to be visually darker than the image, comprising the enlarged portion of the display screen, in the foreground, and,when the continuous touch operation is released while a location of the cursor corresponds to a location of a display target on the display, execute processing related to the display target.

Abstract
A determining module configured to determine an operation mode of an electronic device determines the operation mode as a cursor display mode in which a display region displays a cursor when a detecting module detects a first manipulation through a manipulator over the display region. In a case where the operation mode is the cursor display mode, a display module moves the cursor in the display region in response to movement of the manipulator in the display region detected by the detecting module. In a case where the operation mode is the cursor display mode, a processing executing module executes processing related to a display target indicated by the cursor when the detecting module detects that the manipulator moves in the display region so as to indicate the display target by the cursor in the display region and then moves away from the display region.

1. An electronic device comprising:
-
a display; a touch panel configured to detect a touch operation to the display; and at least one processor configured to, in a cursor display mode in which the display displays a cursor, during a continuous touch operation that moves a contact point across the display, move the cursor on the display, such that the movement of the cursor is greater than the movement of the contact point for as long as the continuous touch operation is not released, when the contact point of the continuous touch operation remains motionless for a non-zero predetermined time period, display an image, comprising an enlarged portion of a display screen surrounding the cursor on the display, in a foreground of the display so as to overlap the display screen as a background of the display, and reduce a luminance of the display screen as the background, so as to be visually darker than the image, comprising the enlarged portion of the display screen, in the foreground, and, when the continuous touch operation is released while a location of the cursor corresponds to a location of a display target on the display, execute processing related to the display target. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory storage medium readable by a computer that stores a control program that controls an electronic device comprising a display and a touch panel, the control program configured to cause the computer to, in a cursor display mode in which the display displays a cursor:
-
during a continuous touch operation that moves a contact point across the display, move the cursor on the display, such that the movement of the cursor is greater than the movement of the contact point, for as long as the continuous touch operation is not released; when the contact point of the continuous touch operation remains motionless for a non-zero predetermined time period, display an image, comprising an enlarged portion of a display screen surrounding the cursor on the display, in a foreground of the display so as to overlap the display screen as a background of the display, and reduce a luminance of the display screen as the background, so as to be visually darker than the image, comprising the enlarged portion of the display screen, in the foreground; and
,when the continuous touch operation is released while a location of the cursor corresponds to a location of a display target on the display, execute processing related to the display target.

19. A method for operating an electronic device comprising a display and a touch panel, the method comprising, in a cursor display mode in which the display displays a cursor:
-
during a continuous touch operation that moves a contact point across the display, moving the cursor on the display, such that the movement of the cursor is greater than the movement of the contact point, for as long as the continuous touch operation is not released; when the contact point of the continuous touch operation reciprocates within a predetermined time period, displaying an image, comprising an enlarged portion of a display screen surrounding the cursor on the display, in a foreground of the display so as to overlap the display screen as a background of the display, and reducing a luminance of the display screen as the background, so as to be visually darker than the image, comprising the enlarged portion of the display screen, in the foreground; and
,when the continuous touch operation is released while a location of the cursor corresponds to a location of a display target on the display, executing processing related to the display target.
