Abstract
An apparatus includes a display unit, a classification unit configured to classify a plurality of images into a landscape-oriented image and a portrait-oriented image, a detection unit configured to detect whether the apparatus is in the landscape orientation or in the portrait orientation, and a control unit configured to display a plurality of images in one orientation of the landscape-oriented image and the portrait-oriented image on the display unit in response to an instruction, and thereafter display a plurality of images in the other orientation on the display unit. The control unit determines the orientation of the image to be displayed first based on a detection result upon receiving the instruction.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
- a classification unit configured to classify a plurality of images into a landscape-oriented image and a portrait-oriented image;
- a detection unit configured to detect whether the apparatus is in the landscape orientation or in the portrait orientation;
- and
- a control unit configured to display a plurality of images in one orientation of the landscape-oriented image and the portrait-oriented image on the display unit in response to an instruction, and thereafter displays a plurality of images in the other orientation on the display unit,
- wherein the control unit determines the orientation of the image to be displayed first based on a detection result when the control unit receives the instruction.
An apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
- a classification unit configured to classify a plurality of images into a landscape-oriented images and a portrait-oriented images;
- and
- a control unit configured to displays a plurality of images in one orientation of the landscape-oriented image and the portrait-oriented image on the display unit, and thereafter displays a plurality of images in the other orientation on the display unit,
- wherein, if the apparatus is in the landscape orientation at display start time, the control unit first displays the plurality of the landscape-oriented images on the display unit, and thereafter displays the plurality of the portrait-oriented images on the display unit, and if the apparatus is in the portrait orientation at the display start time, the control unit first displays the plurality of the portrait-oriented images on the display unit, and thereafter displays the plurality of the landscape-oriented images on the display unit.
A method for controlling an apparatus that displays an image, the method comprising:
- classifying a plurality of images into a landscape-oriented image and a portrait-oriented image;
- detecting whether the apparatus is in the landscape orientation or in the portrait orientation;
- and
- displaying a plurality of images in one orientation of the landscape-oriented image and the portrait-oriented image in response to an instruction, and thereafter displaying a plurality of images in the other orientation,
- wherein determining the orientation of the image to be displayed first based on a detection result when the instruction is received.
A method of an apparatus that displays an image, the method comprising:
- classifying a plurality of images into a landscape-oriented image and a portrait-oriented image;
- displaying the plurality of landscape-oriented images if the apparatus is in the landscape orientation at display start time, and thereafter displaying the plurality of portrait-oriented images;
- and
- displaying the plurality of portrait-oriented images if the apparatus is in the portrait orientation at the display start time, and thereafter displaying the plurality of landscape-oriented images.
