Abstract
A display apparatus includes a controller that invalidates, while an open-close movement state is being detected by an open-close detection device, a touch operation made on a touch panel, and that validates the touch operation made on the touch panel, when either of an open state and a close state is being detected by the open-close detection device and when in a neutral state, the neutral state being where none of the open-close movement state, the open state, and the close state is being detected by the open-close detection device.
Claims8
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display device that is foldably flexible;
- a touch panel that is disposed at a screen of the display device and is foldably flexible;
- an openable body that supports the display device and the touch panel, and is openable and foldable along with the display device and the touch panel upon receiving an open-close operation;
- an open-close detection device that detects an open state where the openable body is opened, a close state where the openable body is folded, and an open-close movement state where open-close movement continues until either one of the open state and the close state switches to another state;
- and
- a control device that includes a processor and, through the processor executing a control program, acts as a controller that invalidates a touch operation made on the touch panel while the open-close movement state is being detected by the open-close detection device, and validates the touch operation made on the touch panel when either of the open state and the close state is being detected by the open-close detection device and when in a neutral state, the neutral state being where none of the open-close movement state, the open state, and the close state is being detected by the open-close detection device.
