INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a touching detection unit configured to detect a touching operation for touching a display unit;
a time counting unit configured to count a time period of continuous touching in a specific area of the display unit;
a touch-up detection unit configured to detect a touch-up operation, which is an operation for discontinuing touching the display unit; and
a control unit configured to perform control, in a case where the information processing apparatus is in a specific mode, when a touch-up operation is detected by the touch-up detection unit in a state in which a touching operation for touching the specific area has been detected by the touching detection unit, and if a time period of continuous touching counted by the time counting unit has not reached a predetermined time period, to execute a function assigned to the specific area while in a case where the information processing apparatus is in the specific mode, when the touch-up operation is detected by the touch-up detection unit in a state in which the touching operation for touching the specific area has been detected by the touching detection unit, and if the time period of continuous touching counted by the time counting unit has reached the predetermined time period, not to execute the function assigned to the specific area in response to the detected touch-up operation, and in a case where the information processing apparatus is not in the specific mode, when the touch-up operation is detected by the touch-up detection unit in a state in which the touching operation for touching the specific area has been detected by the touching detection unit, and even if the time period of continuous touching counted by the time counting unit has reached the predetermined time period, to execute the function assigned to the specific area.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a touching detection unit configured to detect a touching operation and a touch-up operation for the display unit, a time counting unit configured to count a time period of continuous touching on a specific area of the display unit, and a control unit configured, when a touch-up operation from the specific area is detected and a counted time period of continuous touching has not reached a predetermined time period, to execute a function assigned to the specific area while when the touch-up operation from the specific area is detected and the counted time period of continuous touching has reached the predetermined time period, not to execute the function assigned to the specific area in relation only to the detected touch-up operation.

16. A method for controlling an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
-
detecting a touching operation for touching a display unit; counting a time period of continuous touching in a specific area of the display unit; detecting a touch-up operation, which is an operation for discontinuing touching the display unit; and performing control, in a case where the information processing apparatus is in a specific mode, when a touch-up operation is detected in a state in which a touching operation for touching the specific area has been detected, and if a counted time period of continuous touching has not reached a predetermined time period, to execute a function assigned to the specific area while in a case where the information processing apparatus is in the specific mode, when the touch-up operation is detected in a state in which the touching operation for touching in the specific area has been detected, and if the counted time period of continuous touching has reached the predetermined time period, not to execute the function assigned to the specific area in response to the detected touch-up operation, and in a case where the information processing apparatus is not in the specific mode, when the touch-up operation is detected in a state in which the touching operation for touching in the specific area has been detected, and even if the counted time period of continuous touching has reached the predetermined time period, to execute the function assigned to the specific area.
