Abstract
A display control device includes an operation-display unit and a controller. The operation-display unit hierarchically displays multiple functions using multiple screens and accepts an operation performed through an approach or touch of an object. The controller performs control so that, when the object approaches a function displayed on an original screen, a next screen associated with the function selected as a result of the approach of the object is temporarily displayed using a display mode corresponding to a relationship between the original screen and the next screen.
Claims8
A non-transitory storage medium containing program instructions that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- display a plurality of buttons using a plurality of screens on a display;
- when a detector detects that an object is within a first distance to a first button displayed on an original screen, temporarily display a next screen associated with the first button;
- and
- when the detector detects that the object is within a second distance to a second button displayed on the temporarily displayed next screen, the second distance being smaller than the first distance, transition the original screen to a next screen associated with the temporarily displayed next screen.
