Abstract

In display apparatuses each including a touch UI, some of them correct or suppress the direction of display position shift in swipe operation. It is, however, inconvenient that sometimes the correction or suppression is performed at an undesired timing. The display position shift is suppressed depending on an attribute of a displayed object.

Claims

1. A display control apparatus, comprising

a control unit configured to control display position shift of an image expressed by image data depending on an attribute of an object included in the image data.

2. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control unit performs control of suppressing the display position shift in a horizontal direction or in a vertical direction.

3. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control unit controls the display position shift of an image corresponding to the object.

4. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control unit controls the display position shift according to swipe operation.

5. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising

a determination unit configured to determine an attribute of an object to be displayed included in the image data, wherein the control unit suppresses display position shift in a direction perpendicular to a text direction, in a case where the attribute of the object to be displayed is determined to be a character attribute by the determination unit.

6. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising

a determination unit configured to determine an attribute of an object to be displayed included in the image data, wherein the control unit suppresses display position shift in a horizontal direction or a vertical direction, in a case where the attribute of the object to be displayed is determined to be a table attribute by the determination unit.

7. The display control apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the control unit suppresses display position shift of the table attribute object only in a vertical direction, in a case where the determination unit determines that the table attribute object has a row header and does not have a column header.

8. The display control apparatus according to claim 7, wherein the control unit suppresses display position shift of the table attribute object in a horizontal direction or a vertical direction, in a case where the determination unit determines that the row header is included in a display region.

9. The display control apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the control unit suppresses the display position shift of the table attribute object only in the horizontal direction, in a case where the determination unit determines that the table attribute object has a column header and does not have a row header.

10. The display control apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the control unit suppresses the display position shift of the table attribute object in the horizontal direction or the vertical direction, in a case where the determination unit determines that the table attribute object includes the column header in a display region.

11. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising

a determination unit configured to determine an attribute of an object to be displayed included in the image data, wherein the control unit does not suppress display position shift in any direction, in a case where the determination unit determines that the attribute of the object to be displayed is an attribute except a character attribute, a graphic attribute, and a table attribute.

12. The display control apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising

a detection unit configured to detect operation which instructs to perform control of the display position shift by the control unit, wherein

the control unit performs the control in a case where the operation is detected by the detection unit.

13. The display control apparatus according to claim. 1, further comprising

a display unit configured to display a display component indicating a direction in which suppression of the display position shift is performed by the control unit and a display component indicating a direction in which the suppression is not performed.

14. A display control apparatus, comprising:

an input unit configured to input image data including a plurality of objects;

a display unit configured to display an image expressed by the image data input by the input unit; and

a detection unit configured to detect a swipe operation for an image which is displayed by the display unit and corresponds to the object and, wherein

a direction of display position shift for the image which is displayed by the display unit and corresponds to the object is different depending on a type of the object, the display position shift being performed in response to the detection of the swipe operation by the detection unit.

15. A display control method, comprising

controlling display position shift of an image expressed by image data, depending on an attribute of an object included in the image data.

16. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program which causes a computer to perform the display control method according to claim 15.
