Information processing apparatus and computer-readable recording medium for displaying indication of insertion or withdrawal of an electronic device

摘要

Disclosed is an information processing apparatus including: a display unit; a connection I/F unit to receive a connection to a withdrawable electronic device; and a control unit to detect an insertion operation or a withdrawal operation; wherein when the control unit detects the insertion operation, the control unit instructs the display unit to display contents corresponding to the electronic device connected to the connection I/F unit by the insertion operation so as to move the contents in a direction which is same as a direction of the detected insertion operation, and when the control unit detects the withdrawal operation, the control unit instructs the display unit to display the contents corresponding to the electronic device withdrawn from the connection I/F unit by the withdrawal operation so as to move the contents in a direction which is same as a direction of the detected withdrawal operation.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a display unit; a connection I/F unit to receive a connection to a withdrawable electronic device; and a control unit to detect an insertion operation in which the electronic device is inserted into the connection I/F unit by a user or a withdrawal operation in which the electronic device is withdrawn from the connection I/F unit by the user; wherein the control unit carries out at least one display of an insertion display and a withdrawal display, wherein in the insertion display, when the control unit detects the insertion operation, the control unit instructs the display unit to display contents corresponding to the electronic device connected to the connection I/F unit by the insertion operation so as to move the contents in a direction which is same as a direction of the detected insertion operation, and in the withdrawal display, when the control unit detects the withdrawal operation, the control unit instructs the display unit to display the contents corresponding to the electronic device withdrawn from the connection I/F unit by the withdrawal operation so as to move the contents in a direction which is same as a direction of the detected withdrawal operation, wherein when the control unit receives an operation for temporarily hiding the contents having been displayed on the display unit, the control unit instructs the display unit to delete the contents to be hidden by the operation while the contents to be hidden are moved in a same direction as a direction in which the electronic device corresponding to the contents to be hidden is withdrawn from the connection I/F unit and instructs the display unit to display a corresponding indicator indicating a direction in which the electronic device corresponding to the contents to be hidden is connected to the connection I/F unit and a type of the electronic device, and when the control unit detects an operation for the corresponding indicator, the control unit instructs the display unit to display the contents of the electronic device corresponding to the operated corresponding indicator again while the contents are moved in a same direction as a direction in which the electronic device corresponding to the corresponding indicator is inserted into the connection I/F unit.
