An apparatus designs an animation expressing a transition of display forms of an object. A reception unit receives an operation for setting key frames in the animation at one or more time points on a time axis displayed on a screen, the time axis corresponding to the animation, and instructs a display form of the object at each of the set key frames. The reception unit receives, in a state when one or more key frames are set on the time axis and a display form of the object is instructed at each of the set key frames, an instruction for reflecting a display form of the object instructed to a first key frame of an already set one or more key frames as a display form of the object at a second key frame set on the time axis. A display control unit displays indicators representing the key frames.

主权项

1. An apparatus for designing an animation that expresses a transition of display forms of an object, said apparatus comprising:
a reception unit adapted to receive an operation for setting key frames in the animation at one or more time points on a time axis displayed on a screen, the time axis corresponding to the animation, and for associating a display form of the object at each of the set key frames with the key frame, wherein said reception unit receives, as the operation, (i) a first instruction for associating a display form of the object that is newly defined with a key frame that is an operation target and (ii) a second instruction for assigning, to a key frame that is an operation target, reference information to a display form of the object associated with an existing key frame: and a display control unit adapted to display indicators representing the key frames set at the time points, at one or more time points at which the key frames have been set, on the time axis displayed on the screen, wherein said display control unit displays, in a case where the second instruction for assigning, to a second key frame that is different from a first key frame of one or more key frames that have been already set on the time axis, reference information to a display form of the object associated with the first key frame that is received by the reception unit, indicators having the same appearance, as an indicator representing the first key frame and an indicator representing the second key frame to be displayed on the time axis, wherein appearances of the indicator representing the first key frame and the indicator representing the second key frame are different from appearances of an indicator representing the other key frames to which a display form of the object different from a display form of the object at the first key frame and the second key frame of the already set one or more key frames is instructed.
