Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes: a rotation mechanism capable of rotating a rectangular display device between a landscape orientation with longer sides being top and bottom and a portrait orientation with shorter sides being top and bottom; a detection sensor that detects switching of the display device between the landscape orientation and the portrait orientation; and a controller that, upon detection of switching of the display device from the landscape orientation to the portrait orientation by the detection sensor, enlarges a preview display area and allows a preview to be displayed in a size enlarged to fit the enlarged preview display area and displayed to make top and bottom edges of the preview parallel to the shorter sides of the display device.
Abstract:
A display/input device has a display portion and a touch panel portion. The display portion displays selection keys and displays a setting screen of a selected setting item. The touch panel portion is provided for the display portion to detect a touch position of user input and a tap-and-drag operation in which while a touch is maintained the touched position is moved. When a tap-and-drag operation is detected within the display position of a selection key, the display portion displays a setting item explanation screen that explains the setting item corresponding to the selection key at the position where the tap-and-drag operation has been made.
Abstract:
A display operating device includes a storage section storing therein a plurality of character strings, a receiving section receiving a first character, a display section, a touch panel detecting a touch to the display surface of the display section, and an extraction section extracting first character strings each including the first character from among the character strings. Upon receipt of the first character, the first character is displayed within the input frame and the extracted first character strings are displayed outside the input frame. Upon detection of a touch to the input frame displaying the first character strings, the receiving section receives a second character. Second character strings each including the second character are extracted from among the first character strings. Upon receipt of the second character, the second character is displayed within the input frame and the extracted second character strings are displayed outside the input frame.
Abstract:
Provided is an image forming system that allows a user to quickly reach a desired setting item so as to resume alteration of the setting of the image forming apparatus and a job manipulation between a mobile terminal and an image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus starts an operation of changing the setting when an operation panel part is operated. Then, a terminal apparatus displays setting items of the image forming apparatus on a display panel in the form of a menu map. When an operation for determining a setting item is performed on a menu-map screen on the terminal apparatus, the image forming apparatus changes a setting screen to be displayed on the display panel to a setting screen for the setting item indicated by transmitted information.
Abstract:
A display input device includes a display unit and a touch panel unit. When the touch panel unit accepts a predetermined transmission start operation, the display unit starts a display in a transmission transition mode, performs a transmission transition display in which a transition source screen gradually disappears while a ratio of a display of a transition destination screen belonging to a next lower layer of the transition source screen as time passes, and repeats the transmission transition display toward a lower layer.
Abstract:
A communication apparatus includes a motion sensor, a communication device, and a control device. The motion sensor detects a gesture of a user. The communication device makes communication with a terminal device on another end, through a predetermined communication network. The control device acts as a controller. The controller causes the communication device to dispatch a call to the terminal device, when the motion sensor detects a prespecified gesture, in a state where a predetermined condition is satisfied.
