the reset condition is that the reset operation is performed a previously determined threshold number of times or more within a previously determined threshold period.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein
the operation portion is a touch panel,
when a circling operation involving making a two-point touch and then moving one touch position in a previously determined first direction is performed, the processing unit moves a display position of the added image in a direction away from a center of the display unit, and
when a circling operation involving making a two-point touch and then moving one touch position in a second direction opposite to the first direction is performed, the processing unit moves the display position of the added image in a direction approaching the center of the display unit.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein
the processing unit assigns numbers to displayed added images respectively,
the display unit is a touch panel,
when a circling operation involving making a two-point touch and then moving one touch position in a previously determined first direction is performed, each time the touch position moves a predetermined amount, the processing unit makes the display unit switch an added image displayed on an enlarged scale according to an order of the numbers,
when a circling operation involving making a two-point touch and then moving one touch position in a second direction opposite to the first direction is performed, each time the touch position moves a predetermined amount, the processing unit switches the added image displayed on an enlarged scale in a reverse order of the numbers, and
when the touch panel is released at both of two points, the processing unit makes the display unit continue to display on an enlarged scale the added image that is displayed on an enlarged scale at a time point of release at the two points.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein
the operation portion is a touch panel,
