Display control apparatus, non-transitory recording medium and display controlling method for creating first tag, second tag not overlapping other tags displayed, and indicator correlating second tag with first tag

A non-transitory recording medium having a program code recorded thereon that is executable to control a computer to at least:

• determine whether input of a first operation comprising selecting a first icon is accepted;
• in response to determining the input of the first operation is accepted,
• select a first display position corresponding to a position in a screen of a display designated by a user's operation;
• and
• newly create a first tag according to the first icon selected in the first operation for display in the screen of the display at the first display position selected;
• select a second operation from a plurality of possible operations based on the first tag newly created;
• determine whether input of the second operation is accepted, the second operation comprising one of selecting a second icon, inputting a numerical formula, and inputting a numerical value;
• and
• in response to determining the input of the second operation is accepted,
• select a second display position;
• newly create a second tag according to the one of the second icon selected, the numerical formula inputted, and the numerical value inputted in the second operation for display in the screen of the display at the second display position selected, wherein the second display position is automatically selected to not overlap other tags displayed in the screen;
• and
• newly create an indicator that visually correlates the second tag to be displayed at the second display position selected with the first tag to be displayed at the first display position selected, display the newly created one second-kind display area on the specified one second position within the screen of the display so as to allow recognition of correlation of the one second-kind display area with the one first-kind display area.

A method executed by a computer of a display control apparatus, the method comprising:

• determining whether input of a first operation comprising selecting a first icon is accepted;
• in response to determining the input of the first operation is accepted,
• selecting a first display position corresponding to a position in a screen of a display designated by a user's operation;
• and
• newly creating a first tag according to the first icon selected in the first operation for display in the screen of the display at the first display position selected;
• selecting a second operation from a plurality of possible operations based on the first tag newly created;
• determining whether input of the second operation is accepted, the second operation comprising one of selecting a second icon, inputting a numerical formula, and inputting a numerical value;
• and
• in response to determining the input of the second operation is accepted,
• selecting a second display position;
• newly creating a second tag according to the one of the second icon selected, the numerical formula inputted, and the numerical value inputted in the second operation for display in the screen of the display at the second display position selected, wherein the second display position is automatically selected to not overlap other tags displayed in the screen;
• and
• newly creating an indicator that visually correlates the second tag to be displayed at the second display position selected with the first tag to be displayed at the first display position selected.
