Abstract

According to one aspect of an embodiment, an information display device includes a display unit configured to display first content and second content which are individual pieces of content side by side. The information display device includes a change unit configured to changes a display range of the first content and changes the second content to third content according to a change operation of changing a display range serving as a range in which the first content is displayed on a screen.

Claims

1. An information display device, comprising:

a display unit configured to display first content and second content which are individual pieces of content side by side; and

a change unit configured to changes a display range of the first content and changes the second content to third content according to a change operation of changing a display range serving as a range in which the first content is displayed on a screen.

2. The information display device according to claim 1,

wherein the change unit changes the display range of the first content and changes the second content to the third content according to a change operation in a region in which the first content is displayed.

3. The information display device according to claim 1,

wherein the display unit displays the second content on a predetermined display region, and

the change unit reduces a ratio of a region in which the second content is displayed in the display region and increases a ratio of a region in which the third content is displayed in the display region according to the change operation.

4. The information display device according to claim 3,

wherein the change unit moves the third content arranged in front of the second content from an outside of the predetermined display region to an inside of the predetermined display region according to the change operation without moving the second content.

5. The information display device according to claim 3,

wherein the display unit arranges the third content on a back side of the second content, and

the change unit reduces a width of the region in which the second content is displayed in the display region and increases a width of the region in which the third content is displayed in the display region according to the change operation.

6. The information display device according to claim 3,

wherein the change unit moves the display range of the first content according to the change operation, and moves a boundary between the region in which the second content is displayed in the display region and the region in which the third content is displayed in the display region with movement of the display range.

7. The information display device according to claim 6,

wherein the display unit displays the first content including a predetermined frame border, and

the change unit moves the boundary between the region in which the second content is displayed in the display region and the region in which the third content is displayed in the display region with movement of the frame border included in the first content.

8. The information display device according to claim 1,

wherein when the change operation is performed while a terminal of the first content is being displayed, the change unit displays fourth content on a region in which the first content is displayed and a region in which the second content is displayed according to the change operation.

9. The information display device according to claim 8,

wherein the change unit reduces a width of the region in which the first content is displayed and a width of the region in which the second content is displayed and increases a width of a region in which the fourth content is displayed according to the change operation.

10. The information display device according to claim 9,

wherein the change unit moves the fourth content arranged in front of the first content and the second content from an outside of a region including the region in which the first content is displayed and the region in which the second content is displayed to an inside of the region according to the change operation without moving the second content.

11. The information display device according to claim 9,

wherein the display unit arranges the fourth content on a back side of the region including the region in which the first content is displayed and the region in which the second content is displayed, and

the change unit reduces a width of the region including the region in which the first content is displayed and the region in which the second content is displayed and increases a width of the region in which the fourth content is displayed according to the change operation.

12. The information display device according to claim 11,

wherein when the terminal of the first content is displayed on the region in which the first content is displayed, the display unit displays a range in which the fourth content is displayed at the same position as the region in which the second content is displayed on the region in which the second content is displayed.

13. The information display device according to claim 1,

wherein the display unit displays the second content or the third content including a moving image, and controls reproduction of the moving image included in the second content or the moving image included in the third content according to the change operation.

14. The information display device according to claim 1,

wherein the display unit arranges fifth content in front of the first content or the third content, and displays the fifth content at a position according to the change operation.

15. The information display device according to claim 14,

wherein the display unit displays the fifth content including a moving image, and controls reproduction of the moving image included in the fifth content according to the change operation.

16. A delivery device, comprising:

a delivering unit configured to deliver second content and third content displayed with first content to a terminal device together with control information,

the control information causes the terminal device to execute

a display process of displaying the first content and the second content side by side, and

a change process of changing a display range of the first content and changes the second content to third content according to a change operation of changing a display range serving as a range in which the first content is displayed on a screen.

17. An information display method executed by an information display device, comprising:

a display step of displaying first content and second content which are individual pieces of content side by side; and

a change step of changing a display range of the first content and changes the second content to third content according to a change operation of changing a display range serving as a range in which the first content is displayed on a screen.

18. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored therein an information display program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

a display process of displaying first content and second content which are individual pieces of content side by side; and

a change process of changing a display range of the first content and changes the second content to third content according to a change operation of changing a display range serving as a range in which the first content is displayed on a screen.
