USER INTERFACE GENERATION APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A user interface generation apparatus comprising:
- a memory unit capable of storing an application program;
a control unit, based on the application program stored in the memory unit, for controlling, when receiving instruction to generate one user interface, to display a stand-alone user interface object group corresponding to the user interface of the instruction, and for controlling, when receiving instruction to generate a plurality of user interfaces, to display a compound user interface object group by performing compound processing on user interface objects extracted from stand-alone user interface object groups corresponding to the plurality of user interfaces of the instruction, respectively;
a display unit for displaying the stand-alone user interface object group or the compound user interface object group; and
an input unit, arranged at a front face of the display unit in relation to the display unit, for receiving a first input by a first input means and a second input by a second input means, whereinif the input unit receives the first input, the control unit executes a function of a user interface object corresponding to a reception position of the first input, andif the input unit receives the second input while the control unit controls to display the compound user interface object group, the control unit performs re-compound processing of the compound user interface object group according to a position where the input unit starts receiving the second input and a position where the input unit ends receiving the second input and controls to display a compound user interface object group re-compounded.

Abstract
A user interface generation apparatus is provided, the apparatus being capable of changing a composition of a compound UI by a simple operation even after compound of user interfaces of a plurality of application programs. The user interface generation apparatus includes a control unit, if an input unit receives a second input while the control unit controls to display a compound user interface object group, for performing re-compound processing of the compound user interface object group according to a position where the input unit starts receiving the second input and a position where the input unit ends receiving the second input and controlling to display a re-compound user interface object group.
