Abstract
An information terminal such as a PDA (personal digital assistant) having a plurality of display screens in particular. The information terminal is provided with a plurality of display devices stored so that they can be developed in a main unit of the information terminal. The information terminal includes a controller which controls start and display of any application displayed on each of the display devices. The controller displays a plurality of applications in a predetermined order each time the display devices are developed.
Claims21
An information terminal, comprising:
- a plurality of display devices configured to be developed from a stored position;
- and
- a controller which controls start and display of any application to be displayed on each of the plurality of display devices;
- wherein the controller displays a plurality of applications in a predetermined order on the plurality of display devices each time the plurality of display devices are developed from the stored position,
- wherein the controller references a table in which a priority of the plurality of applications is set, and displays the plurality of applications on the display devices in the predetermined order based on the priority.
An information terminal, comprising:
- a plurality of display devices;
- and
- a controller which controls start and display of any application to be displayed on each of the display devices;
- wherein the controller references a table in which a priority of a plurality of applications is set, and determines the applications to be displayed on the plurality of display devices based on the priority.
A display control method of an information terminal, wherein a plurality of display devices stored in the information terminal in a developable manner, the method comprising:
- setting start and display of applications in a predetermined order;
- and
- controlling start and display of any application to be displayed on each of the plurality of display devices in the predetermined order each time the plurality of display devices are developed,
- wherein a table, in which a priority of the plurality of applications is set, is referenced, and the plurality of applications are displayed on the plurality of display devices in the predetermined order based on the priority.
A display control method of an information terminal, wherein the information terminal includes a plurality of display devices to display applications, the method comprising:
- providing the plurality of display devices, which are configured to be developed from a stored position;
- controlling start and display of any application to be displayed on each of the plurality of display device;
- and
- displaying a plurality of applications in a predetermined order to the plurality of display devices each time the plurality of display devices are developed from the stored position,
- wherein said displaying the plurality of applications includes referencing a table in which a priority of the application is set, and displaying the plurality of applications on the display devices in the predetermined order based on the priority.
A display control program of an information terminal, wherein the information terminal includes a plurality of display devices and a computer, the program for causing the computer to function as:
- a controller which controls start and display of applications to be displayed on each of the display devices in a predetermined order each time the display devices are developed,
- wherein the controller is caused to function so as to reference a table in which a priority of a plurality of applications is set, determine the plurality of applications to be displayed on the plurality of display devices based on the priority, and display the plurality of applications in a predetermined order based on the priority.
