摘要:
A menu display device for indicating a relationship between a series of linked menu items that are listed in separate menus and displayed sequentially on a display screen to be selected by a cursor is disclosed. The plurality of menus are appropriately stored, and each menu item has a design for identifying their respective menu items. The menu items are connected so as to form a linked structure of the menus, and the linkage is also stored. A menu item display control unit is provided for retrieving the next menu, which is related to a selected menu item and for having that retrieved menu displayed by the display screen. A marker design generation unit can generate a new design, which includes at least a portion of the design for the menu item that was selected in the previous menu to thereby indicate, by the appearance of the cursor, a path through the linked menus.
