IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, DISPLAY METHOD FOR AN OPERATION SCREEN, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes a display and a touch panel, and is provided with a normal mode in which processing is performed every time operation is performed with the touch panel and a play back mode in which processing is performed on the basis of recording of the operation, and the image forming apparatus includes a controller configured to determine a gesture represented by a series of touch events, store gesture log data and touch event log data to a storage unit, and determine display control processing. In the normal mode, the display control processing is determined on the basis of the gesture or an object. In the play back mode, the display control processing is determined on the basis of the gesture log data or the touch event log data. The determined display control processing is executed.

主权项

1. An image forming apparatus comprising a display and a touch panel provided on a display surface of the display, the image forming apparatus comprising a normal mode in which processing is performed every time operation is performed with the touch panel and a play back mode in which processing is performed on the basis of recording of the operation,
the image forming apparatus comprising a controller configured to; determine a gesture represented by the series of touch events every time a series of touch events is performed on a first area of the touch panel in the normal mode; store gesture log data representing the gesture determined and touch event log data representing the series of touch events performed on a second area of the touch panel to a storage unit; determine display control processing for displaying an operation screen on the display, wherein in the normal mode, a) in a case where the series of touch events is performed on the first area, the display control processing is determined on the basis of the gesture determined, and b) in a case where the series of touch events is performed on the second area, the display control processing is determined on the basis of an object at a position where the series of touch events is performed, and wherein in the play back mode, c) in a case where the series of touch events is performed on the first area, the display control processing is determined on the basis of the gesture log data, and d) in a case where the series of touch events is performed on the second area, the display control processing is determined on the basis of the touch event log data; and execute the determined display control processing.
