Display control method and device

A device comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• detect a plurality of reference objects from an image,
• specify identification information corresponding to each of the plurality of reference objects,
• acquire a plurality of contents corresponding to the respective identification information,
• virtually arrange the plurality of contents based on position information of each of the plurality of contents, the position information being set with reference to the plurality of reference objects respectively,
• determine whether an overlap occurs between display regions of at least some contents among the plurality of contents virtually arranged,
• when the overlap occurs, change at least one of a display size and a position of the at least some contents overlapping each other to remove the overlap,
• generate display data for displaying another image including the plurality of contents based on at least one of the changed display size and the changed position of the at least some contents, and the position information of contents other than the at least some contents, and
• control a display to display the another image based on the display data.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

• detecting a plurality of reference objects from an image;
• specifying identification information corresponding to each of the plurality of reference objects;
• acquiring a plurality of contents corresponding to the respective identification information;
• virtually arranging the plurality of contents based on position information of each of the plurality of contents, the position information being set with reference to the plurality of reference objects respectively;
• determining whether an overlap occurs between display regions of at least some contents among the plurality of contents virtually arranged;
• when the overlap occurs, changing at least one of a display size and a position of the at least some contents overlapping each other to remove the overlap;
• generating display data for displaying another image including the plurality of contents based on at least one of the changed display size and the changed position of the at least some contents, and the position information of contents other than the at least some contents;
• and
• controlling a display to display the another image based on the display data.
