Abstract

The display apparatus is provided with: a display that displays a raw image and an identification image by which an electronic document is identifiable within a screen including at least two areas, the raw image representing a content of the electronic document, the identification image being smaller than the raw image; a detection unit that detects a moving operation of the raw image displayed in a first area to a second area that is different from the first area; and a controller that controls the display to display the identification image in the second area in response to the detection by the detection unit.

Claims

1. A display apparatus comprising:

a display that displays a raw image and an identification image by which an electronic document is identifiable within a screen including at least two areas, the raw image representing a content of the electronic document, the identification image being smaller than the raw image;

a detection unit that detects a moving operation of the raw image displayed in a first area to a second area that is different from the first area; and

a controller that controls the display to display the identification image in the second area in response to the detection by the detection unit.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the detection unit detects the moving operation when a specified point in the raw image is included in the second area.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the detection unit detects the moving operation when a predetermined event generates in a state where a specified point in the raw image is included in the second area.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller controls the display to partly display the identification image.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller controls the display to display the identification image in a direction that is determined in accordance with a shape of the second area.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller controls the display to display the identification image at a position that is determined in accordance with a mode of the moving operation.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein, when the display displays the identification image in the second area, the controller controls the display to display a second identification image in the second area, the second identification image corresponding to a second raw image displayed in the first area, and the second raw image representing a content of a second electronic document associated with the electronic document identified by the identification image.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller controls the display to display the identification image at a position that is determined in correspondence with a position of a person who performs the moving operation.

9. The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the detection unit further detects a returning operation of the identification image displayed in the second area to the first area;

and

the controller controls the display to display the raw image in the first area in response to detection of the returning operation by the detection unit.

10. A displaying method comprising:

displaying a raw image that represents a content of an electronic document in a first area among at least two areas within a screen;

detecting a moving operation of the raw image displayed in the first area to a second area that is different from the first area; and

displaying an identification image by which the electronic document is identifiable, the identification image being smaller than the raw image in the second area in response to the detection.

11. A computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for displaying an image, the process comprising:

displaying a raw image that represents a content of an electronic document in a first area among at least two areas within a screen;

detecting a moving operation of the raw image displayed in the first area to a second area that is different from the first area; and

displaying an identification image by which the electronic document is identifiable, the identification image being smaller than the raw image in the second area in response to the detection.

12. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein the process of detecting the moving operation detects the moving operation when a specified point in the raw image is included in the second area.

13. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein the process of detecting the moving operation detects the moving operation when a predetermined event generates in a state where a specified point in the raw image is included in the second area.

14. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein the process of displaying the identification image is to partly display the identification image.

15. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein the process of displaying the identification image is to display the identification image in a direction that is determined in accordance with a shape of the second area.

16. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein the process of displaying the identification image is to display the identification image at a position that is determined in accordance with a mode of the moving operation.

17. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein, when the identification image is displayed in the second area, the process of displaying the identification image displays a second identification image in the second area, the second identification image corresponding to a second raw image displayed in the first area, and the second raw image representing a content of a second electronic document associated with the electronic document identified by the identification image.

18. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein the process of displaying the identification image is to display the identification image at a position that is determined in correspondence with a position of a person who performs the moving operation.

19. The computer readable medium according to claim 11, wherein

the process of detecting the moving operation is to further detect a returning operation of the identification image displayed in the second area to the first area;

and

the process of displaying the raw image is to display the raw image in the first area in response to detection of the returning operation.
