Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes a detection unit capable of detecting first and second touch positions on a touch panel touched by first and second objects, respectively, a storage unit that stores the first and second touch positions and holds a final touch position as the touch position after each touch is released, a calculation unit that calculates a position obtained by a predetermined rule from the first and second touch positions stored by the storage unit, and a determination unit that determines whether an operation performed on the touch panel is an operation of moving a display content displayed on the touch panel, or an operation of rotating or changing a size of a display content displayed on the touch panel, based on whether the position calculated by the calculation unit is moved, a speed of movement, or an amount of movement.
Abstract:
A remote control apparatus for remotely controlling an image forming apparatus includes a display unit configured to display an operation screen for remotely controlling the image forming apparatus, an activation unit configured to activate a handwriting input application that is installed in the remote control apparatus in a state where image data for displaying a keyboard screen as the operation screen is received from the image forming apparatus, and a display control unit configured to display a handwriting input screen on the display unit, the handwriting input screen being an input screen for the handwriting input application activated by the activation unit.
Abstract:
An MFP (Multi Function Peripheral) serving as a display device detects a touch on the touch panel and then sets a wait time in accordance with the position of the touch on the touch panel. If another touch is detected before the wait time has passed since the touch on the touch panel is detected, the MFP determines that the detected two touches are multi-touch. If the wait time has passed without detecting another touch since the touch on the touch panel is detected, the MFP determines that the detected touch is single touch.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus remotely operated by an external terminal includes a generation unit generating a first composite image by combining an operation screen image corresponding to an operation screen of the image forming apparatus that includes software keys, and the hardware key area image of an area including hardware key images corresponding to hardware keys of the image forming apparatus, a setting unit not setting a dead area within the hardware key images but setting the dead area in a portion of an area of at least one software key among the software keys, the portion being on a side close to the hardware key area image, and the at least one software key being adjacent to the hardware key area image, and a transmission unit transmitting the first composite image as a remote operation image used in remotely operating the image forming apparatus, to the external terminal.
