Apparatus and method for circuit diagram display, and computer product
First Claim
1. A circuit diagram display apparatus that displays circuit areas side by side on a display screen, wherein the circuit area includes any one of a part and a whole of a plurality of circuit diagrams, the circuit diagram display apparatus comprising:
- a display format changing unit that changes a display format in any one way of from a one-below-the-other format to a side-by-side format, and from the side-by-side format to the one-below-the-other format by executing a command once, when the circuit area of the circuit diagram on the display screen is displayed in any one of the one-below-the-other format and the side-by-side format; and
a display controller that performs a display control to display a target point in the circuit area, in the same position before and after the change in the display format, while the display format changing unit changes the display format on the display screen.

Abstract
A circuit diagram display apparatus displays a plurality of logic circuit diagrams. An associating unit associates the logic circuits based on at least any one of identification information, structural information, logical equivalence information, and external designated information about the logic circuits. A display format changing unit changes a display format between a side-by-side format and one-below-the-other format. A display controller performs control to display a target point in the logic circuit diagram in the same position before and after the display format is changed.
