Display apparatus and display method thereof

摘要

Desired character information can be effectively obtained. The display apparatus (display terminal) includes a display part, a plurality of operation portions, to which different characters are assigned and which are provided adjacent to one another, an operation detection part which detects operation states of the plurality of operation portions, and a control part which displays character information about a character assigned to an operation portion, to which an operation is detected by the operation detection part, wherein if it is determined that a first operation portion among the plurality of operation portions is operated based on detection of an operation state by the operation detection part, the control part displays character information about a character assigned to the first operation portion on the display part, and further specifies a second operation portion associated with the first operation portion based on the operation state to the first operation portion, and displays character information about a character assigned to the second operation portion on the display part.

1. A display apparatus comprising:
a display part; a plurality of keys, to which different characters are assigned, respectively, and which are provided adjacent to one another; an operation detection part which detects operation states to the plurality of keys; and a control part which controls the display part to display an expected candidate about a character assigned to a key, to which an operation is detected by the operation detection part, wherein if it is determined that a first key among the plurality of keys is operated based on detection of an operation state by the operation detection part:
the control part controls the display part to display an expected candidate about a first character assigned to the first key on the display part, an initial character of the expected candidate about the first character being the first character, andthe control part specifies a second key adjacent to the first key based on the operation state to the first operation portion, and displays expected candidate about a second character assigned to the second key on the display part, an initial character of the expected candidate about the second character being the second character, and if a third character assigned to a third key of the plurality of keys is input as a subsequent character, by operating the third key before deciding of one of the expected candidate about the first character and the expected candidate about the second character: the control part controls the display part to display an expected candidate, the initial character of which is the first character assigned to the first key and the subsequent character of which is one of the third character assigned to the third key and a fourth character assigned to a fourth key, which is adjacent to the third key, while displaying no expected candidate, the initial character of which is the second character assigned to the second key.
