Portable terminal device
First Claim
1. The portable terminal device comprising:
- a first unit which has a first display module, and is configured such that a user is allowed to see a scenery at a side of the first unit opposite to a user'"'"'s side through the first display module;
a second unit which has a second display module;
a switching module which is operable to switch the portable terminal device between a first configuration that the first unit covers the second display module, and a second configuration that the first unit is moved from the first configuration with respect to the second display module so that at least a part of the second display module is exposed to an outside; and
a controller which allows the user to designate a portion of an original image as a separate object image, and which allows the user to move the separate object image to a location on the first display module showing the scenery such that the separate object image is overlapped with the scenery,wherein the controller comprisesan extracting module which receives a user designation of an outline around a portion of the original image, and extracts the portion of the original image as the separate object image, anda display control module which controls the first display module and the second display module, wherein the display control module is operative to display the object image extracted by the extracting module on the first display module, and to set a display area on the first display module other than the object image in a see-through state.
