Abstract
If an operation to switch a first display mode to a second display mode is performed by a user, a display size of an image that is displayed in the first display mode is compared with a minimum display size that is associated with the second display mode. If the display size of the image that is displayed in the first display mode is smaller than the minimum display size in the second display mode, the display size is changed into the minimum display size in the second display mode and the image is displayed on the display screen in a changed display size.
Claims15
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a display controller configured to exert control such that an image is displayed on a display screen in one of a plurality of display modes, the plurality of display modes including a first display mode and a second display mode;
- and
- a first comparison unit configured to compare, when the first display mode is switched to the second display mode, a display size of the image that is displayed on the display screen in the first display mode and a given display size that is associated with the second display mode,
- wherein the display controller is configured to exert control such that the image is displayed on the display screen in the second display mode in either the given display size that is associated with the second display mode or the display size of the image that is displayed in the first display mode, based on a result of the comparison by the first comparison unit.
A method of controlling image display, comprising:
- conducting a first comparison when a first display mode is switched to a second display mode out of a plurality of display modes, the first comparison being a comparison between a display size of an image that is displayed on a display screen in the first display mode and a given display size that is associated with the second display mode;
- and
- exerting control such that the image is displayed on the display screen in the second display mode in either the given display size that is associated with the second display mode or the display size of the image that is displayed in the first display mode, based on a result of the first comparison.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon a program for causing a computer to function as:
- a display controller configured to exert control such that an image is displayed on a display screen in one of a plurality of display modes, the plurality of display modes comprising a first display mode and a second display mode;
- and
- a first comparison unit configured to compare, when the first display mode is switched to the second display mode, a display size of the image that is displayed on the display screen in the first display mode and a given display size that is associated with the second display mode,
- wherein the display controller is configured to exert control such that the image is displayed on the display screen in the second display mode in either the given display size that is associated with the second display mode or the display size of the image that is displayed in the first display mode, based on a result of the comparison by the first comparison unit.
