Mobile terminal device, and program used in mobile terminal device
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal device provided with a plurality of keys, comprising:
- a touch detector configured to detect touching any of the keys by a user;
a press detector configured to detect pressing any of the keys by the user;
a mode switcher configured to switch a mode to a first mode in a case where the user touches a certain key, which is one of the keys, and to switch the mode to a second mode in a case where the user does not touch the certain key;
a function executor configured to execute a first function assigned to an input key, which is a key different from the certain key, in a case where the press detector detects in the first mode that the user has pressed the input key, and to execute a second function assigned to the input key in a case where the press detector detects in the second mode that the user has pressed the input key; and
an output unit configured to output an explanation on the first function assigned to the input key in a case where the touch detector detects in the first mode that the user has touched the input key.

Abstract
A mobile terminal device, which is provided with the plurality of keys, includes: a touch detection interface for detecting that a user has touched a key; a press detection interface for detecting that the user has pressed the key; a controller for switching the mode in response to whether or not the user has touched a side key, in order to execute a first function assigned to the key in a case where the key is pressed by the user in a “shift mode,” and to execute a second function assigned to the key in a case where the key is pressed by the user in a “normal mode”; and a display unit for displaying an explanation on the first function assigned to the key in a case where it is detected in the “shift mode” that the user has touched the key.

5. A program used in a mobile terminal device provided with a plurality of keys, the program causing the mobile terminal device to execute the steps of:
-
detecting touching any of the keys by a user;
detecting pressing any of the keys by the user;
switching a mode to a first mode in a case where the user touches a certain key, which is one of the keys, and switching the mode to a second mode in a case where the user does not touch the certain key;
executing a first function assigned to an input key, which is a key different from the certain key, in a case where it is detected in the first mode that the user has pressed the input key, and executing a second function assigned to the input key in a case where it is detected in the second mode that the user has pressed the input key; and
outputting an explanation on the first function assigned to the input key in a case where it is detected in the first mode that the user has touched the input key.
