Abstract
Disclosed is an image display method of displaying a first image and a second image in a display area, the second image being adjacent to the first image. The image display method includes: performing display with switching between a first display mode and a second display mode. The first display mode is a mode in which the first image displayed as a three-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a three-dimensional image are displayed. The second display mode is a mode in which the first image displayed as a two-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a two-dimensional image are displayed.
Claims21
An image display method of displaying a plurality of images including a first image and a second image in a display area, the second image being adjacent to the first image and a width of the second image being larger than a width of the first image, comprising:
- performing display with switching between a first display mode and a second display mode, the first display mode being a mode in which the first image displayed as a three-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a three-dimensional image are displayed, and the second display mode being a mode in which the first image displayed as a two-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a two-dimensional image are displayed, wherein
- the first display mode is performed when a sum of widths of images to be displayed in the display area is greater than a pre-determined width,
- the second display mode is performed when the sum of widths of images to be displayed in the display area is less than the pre-determined width,
- one axis in a coordinate system for the second display mode is different from any axis of a coordinate system for the first display mode, and
- wherein a width of one image among the plurality of images, when displayed in the first display mode, along a horizontal direction of the display area is shorter than a width of the one image, when displayed in the second display mode, along the horizontal direction of the display area.
An image display device that displays a plurality of images including a first image and a second image in a display area, the second image being adjacent to the first image and a width of the second image being larger than a width of the first image, comprising:
- a display that displays the first image and the second image in the display area;
- and
- a display controller that causes the display to perform display in the display area with switching between a first display mode and a second display mode, the first display mode being a mode in which the first image displayed as a three-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a three-dimensional image are displayed, and the second display mode being a mode in which the first image displayed as a two-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a two-dimensional image are displayed, wherein
- the first display mode is performed when a sum of widths of images to be displayed in the display area is greater than a pre-determined width,
- the second display mode is performed when the sum of widths of images to be displayed in the display area is less than the pre-determined width, and
- one axis in a coordinate system for the second display mode is different from any axis of a coordinate system for the first display mode, and
- wherein a width of one image among the plurality of images, when displayed in the first display mode, along a horizontal direction of the display area is shorter than a width of the one image, when displayed in the second display mode, along the horizontal direction of the display area.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a display control program to be run on a computer, the computer commanding that a plurality of images including a first image and a second image be displayed in a display area, the second image being adjacent to the first image and a width of the second image being larger than a width of the first image, the display control program causing the computer to perform operations comprising:
- performing display with switching between a first display mode and a second display mode, the first display mode being a mode in which the first image displayed as a three-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a three-dimensional image are displayed, and the second display mode being a mode in which the first image displayed as a two-dimensional image and the second image displayed as a two-dimensional image are displayed, wherein
- the first display mode is performed when a sum of widths of images to be displayed in the display area is greater than a pre-determined width,
- the second display mode is performed when the sum of widths of images to be displayed in the display area is less than the pre-determined width, and
- one axis in a coordinate system for the second display mode is different from any axis of a coordinate system for the first display mode, and
- wherein a width of one image among the plurality of images, when displayed in the first display mode, along a horizontal direction of the display area is shorter than a width of the one image, when displayed in the second display mode, along the horizontal direction of the display area.
