1. An apparatus comprising:
- a detection unit configured to detect a touch onto a display screen of a display unit;
a display control unit configured to perform control;
to display on the display unit first guide information indicating functions executable by an operation following a movement of the touch position from an original position on the display screen to a current position on the display screen without releasing the detected touch,to display second guide information indicating a function among the functions indicated by the first guide information to be executed at a time when the detected touch is released when the movement of the touch position satisfies a first condition without releasing the detected touch, andto terminate display of the second guide information when the movement of the touch position of the detected touch satisfies a second condition without releasing the touch after the movement of the touch position satisfies the first condition, the second guide information indicating whether the function to be executed is invoked; and
a control unit configured to perform control to execute the function indicated by the second guide information, when the detected touch is released while the second guide information is being displayed.

Abstract
There is provided an apparatus that can prevent invoking of unintended functions in gesture operation. The apparatus displays gesture functions executable by movement of touch position, and when movement of touch position satisfies a first condition, confirms executable gesture functions to display confirmed functions. When the movement of touch position satisfies a second condition after the confirmation, the apparatus cancels the confirmation. When the touch input is released in the confirmed state, the apparatus executes the confirmed functions, and when the touch input is released in the canceled state, control does not execute gesture functions.

13. A control method comprising:
-
detecting a touch onto a display screen of a display unit; performing control to display on the display unit first guide information representing functions executable by an operation following a movement of a touch position of the detected touch from an original position on the display screen to a current position on the display screen without releasing the detected touch, to display second guide information indicating a function among the functions indicated by the first guide information to be executed at a time when the detected touch is released when the movement of the touch position satisfies a first condition without releasing the detected touch and to terminate display of the second guide information when a movement of the touch position satisfies a second condition without releasing the touch after the movement of the touch position satisfies the first condition, the second guide information indicating whether the function to be executed is invoked; and performing control to execute the displayed function indicated by the second guide information, when the detected touch is released while the second guide information is displayed. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to act as:
-
a detection unit configured to detect a touch onto a display screen of a display unit; a display control unit configured to perform control; to display on the display unit first guide information indicating functions executable by an operation following a movement of a touch position of the detected touch from an original position on the display screen to a current position on the display screen without releasing the detected touch, to display second guide information indicating a function among the functions indicated by the first guide information to be executed at a time when the detected touch is released when the movement of the touch position satisfies a first condition without releasing the detected touch; and to terminate display of the second guide information when a movement of the touch position of the detected touch satisfies a second condition without releasing the touch after the movement of the touch position satisfies the first condition, the second guide information indicating whether the function to be executed is invoked; and a control unit configured to perform control to execute the function indicated by the second guide information, when the detected touch is released while the second guide information is being displayed. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
