Claims21
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a first display unit configured to display an operation screen;
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor in communication with the memory,
- wherein the at least one processor is configured to perform:
- causing a terminal apparatus to display, on a second display unit of the terminal apparatus, a terminal screen corresponding to the operation screen being displayed on the first display unit, via communication by a Remote Framebuffer (RFB) protocol;
- and
- executing control to display or not display a first software keyboard on the operation screen displayed on the first display unit based on an acceptance process of a character-input-region selection operation,
- wherein
- in a case where the selection operation is accepted by the information processing apparatus, based on an input received at a character input region displayed on the first display unit, the first software keyboard is displayed on the operation screen displayed on the first display unit, and
- in a case where the selection operation is received at a character input region displayed on the second display unit of the terminal apparatus and the selection operation is accepted at the information processing apparatus via the communication from the terminal apparatus by the RFB protocol, the first software keyboard is not displayed on the operation screen displayed on the first display unit.
