Abstract
According to one embodiment, an electronic device includes a display configured to display a content including pages, a touch panel on the display, and circuitry. The circuitry is configured to detect a tilt of the device, switch a displayed page from a first page to a second page when the device is tilted in a first direction, and when a contact on a partial area of the touch panel corresponding to the first direction is detected, stop switching of a displayed page based on a tilt of the device in the first direction.
Claims10
An electronic device comprising:
- a display configured to display a content including pages;
- a touch panel on the display;
- and
- circuitry configured to
- detect a tilt of the device around an axis in an upper and lower direction of the touch panel,
- switch a displayed page from a first page to a second page when the device is tilted in a first direction,
- when a contact on a partial area of the touch panel corresponding to the first direction is detected, stop switching of a displayed page based on a tilt of the device in the first direction,
- stop simulation display of page turning from left to right when the device is rotated around the axis such that a left side of the device is frontward and a right side is an opposite side and a contact on a region on a left side of the touch panel is detected,
- stop simulation display of page turning from right to left when the device is rotated around the axis such that a right side of the device is frontward and a left side is an opposite side and a contact on a region on a right side of the touch panel is detected,
- continue simulation display of page turning from left to right when the device is rotated around the axis such that a left side of the device is frontward and a right side is an opposite side and a contact on a region on a right side of the touch panel is detected, and
- continue simulation display of page turning from right to left when the device is rotated around the axis such that a right side of the device is frontward and a left side is an opposite side and a contact on a region on a left side of the touch panel is detected.
