Display control apparatus having touch panel function, display control method, and storage medium

A control method for a display control apparatus having a display unit that has a display screen and a touch panel configured to detect at least a touch at one point on the display screen, the control method comprising:

• a first control step of, when the touch panel detects a touch at one point, and thereafter does not detect touches at a plurality of points, until the touch at one point is longer detected, controlling displaying of the display unit so that a display object displayed on the display screen is scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen in response to the touch at one point leaving the display screen while moving on the display screen regardless of whether the touch at one point satisfies a predetermined condition;
• a second control step of, when the touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point, controlling displaying of the display unit so that the display object is scrolled in response to moving of a touch position of the touch at one point while the touch at one point is continuously detected regardless of whether the touch at one point satisfies the predetermined condition;
• a third control step of, when the touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point, and when the touch at one point satisfies the predetermined condition, and thereafter the touch at one point leaves the display screen while moving on the display screen, controlling displaying of the display unit so that the display object is scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen;
• and
• a fourth control step of, when the touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point, and when the touch at one point leaves the display screen without satisfying the predetermined condition, controlling displaying of the display unit so that the display object is not scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen.

A display control apparatus comprising:

• a touch panel configured to detect at least a touch at one point on a display screen of a display unit;
• and
• a processor configured to control displaying of the display unit so that:
• when said touch panel detects a touch at one point, and thereafter does not detect touches at a plural points, until the touch at one point is no longer detected, a plurality of items displayed on the display screen are scrolled in response to moving of a touch position of the touch at one point while the touch at one point is continuously detected, and the plurality of items are scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen in response to the touch at one point leaving the display screen while moving on the display screen;
• and
• when said touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point an item to be selected is changed from a first item to a second item among the plurality of items in accordance with, without scrolling the plurality of items, a touch position of the touch at one point after the touch at one point satisfies a predetermined condition.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program executable by a computer to implement a control method for a display control apparatus having a display unit that has a display screen on which a display object is to be displayed and a touch panel configured to detect at least a touch at one point on the display screen, the control method comprising:

• a first control step of, when the touch panel detects a touch at one point, and thereafter does not detect touches at a plurality of points, until the touch at one point is longer detected, controlling displaying of the display unit so that a display object displayed on the display screen is scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen in response to the touch at one point leaving the display screen while moving on the display screen regardless of whether the touch at one point satisfies a predetermined condition;
• a second control step of, when the touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point, controlling displaying of the display unit so that the display object is scrolled in response to moving of a touch position of the touch at one point while the touch at one point is continuously detected regardless of whether the touch at one point satisfies the predetermined condition;
• a third control step of, when the touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point, and when the touch at one point satisfies the predetermined condition, and thereafter the touch at one point leaves the display screen while moving on the display screen, controlling displaying of the display unit so that the display object is scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen;
• and
• a fourth control step of, when the touch panel detects touches at a plurality of points, and thereafter detects a touch at only one point, and when the touch at one point leaves the display screen without satisfying the predetermined condition, controlling displaying of the display unit so that the display object is not scrolled after the touch at one point leaves the display screen.
