Abstract
A cursor control method, and an apparatus and a memory medium which stores a program related thereto controls a position of a cursor displayed on a screen based on an input from a pointing device. The cursor control method includes the steps of detecting a present position of the cursor based on the input from the pointing device, and (b) controlling a moving quantity of the cursor on the screen based on the input from the pointing device depending on mask information which indicates a specific region on the screen and the present position of the cursor.
Claims18
A cursor control method controlling a position of a cursor displayed on a screen based on an input from a pointing device, comprising:
- detecting a present position of the cursor based on the input from the pointing device;
- and
- controlling a moving amount of the cursor on the screen based on the input from the pointing device depending on mask information which indicates a specific region on the screen and which controls a moving amount of the cursor based on the present position of the cursor when the cursor is moved in an arbitrary direction on the screen.
A computer-readable recording medium which stores a program for causing a computer to control a position of a cursor displayed on a screen based on an input from a pointing device, comprising:
- detecting means for causing the computer to detect a present position of the cursor on the screen based on the input from the pointing device;
- and
- control means for causing the computer to control a moving amount of the cursor on the screen based on the input from the pointing device depending on mask information which indicates a specific region on the screen and which controls a moving amount of the cursor based on the present position of the cursor when the cursor is moved in an arbitrary direction on the screen.
An information processing apparatus having a function of displaying a cursor on a screen based on an input from a pointing device, comprising:
- a detecting part detecting a present position of the cursor on the screen based on the input from the pointing device;
- and
- a control part controlling a moving amount of the cursor on the screen based on the input from the pointing device depending on mask information which indicates a specific region on the screen and which controls a moving amount of the cursor based on the present position of the cursor when the cursor is moved in an arbitrary direction on the screen.
