Accordingly, the sequence in which the images are displayed is easily changed.
Claims13
A method of displaying images on a display apparatus, the method comprising:
- performing a slideshow displaying a plurality of images including a first image and a second image in a first order on a screen of the display apparatus automatically, wherein the first image has a lower part and an upper part, and the second image has a lower part and an upper part, the upper part of the first image being adjacent to the lower part of the second image;
- when a rotation by 180 degree of the display apparatus is detected, rotating each of the plurality of images displayed on the screen by 180 degree so that each of the plurality of images can be shown in its original orientation and the lower part of the first image is adjacent to the upper part of the second image, and resuming the slideshow displaying the rotated plurality of images in a second order on the screen of the display apparatus, wherein the second order is the reverse direction of the first order.
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display unit which displays images on a screen;
- a rotation detector which detects a rotation of the display apparatus;
- and
- a controller which controls the display unit to display a slideshow displaying a plurality of images including a first image and a second image in a first order automatically, and, wherein the first image has a lower part and an upper part, and the second image has a lower part and an upper part, the upper part of the first image being adjacent to the lower part of the second image, and when a rotation by 180 degree of the display apparatus is detected by the rotation detector, the controller rotates each of the plurality of images displayed on the screen so that the lower part of the first image is adjacent to the upper part of the second image, and resumes the slideshow displaying the rotated plurality of images in a second order on the screen of the display apparatus,
- wherein the second order is the reverse direction of the first order.

A display apparatus comprising:
- a position change detector which detects whether a change in a position of the display apparatus occurs;
- a storage unit which stores a plurality of images including a first image and a second;
- a display unit;
- a controller which controls the display unit to display a slideshow of the plurality of images including the first image and tile second image in a first order automatically, wherein the first image has a lower part and an upper part, and the second image has a lower part and an upper part, upper part of the first image being adjacent to the lower part of the second image, wherein the controller rotates each of the plurality of images so that the lower part of the first image is adjacent to the upper part of the second image and controls the display unit to display the slideshow of the rotated plurality of images in a second order if the position change detector detects the change in position while the slideshow of the plurality of images is displayed in the first order, wherein the second order is different than the first order, wherein the controller changes at least one of a display location and an orientation of the plurality of images displayed on the display unit corresponding to the change in position.
