The display target range includes both the enlargement reference point and the specified portion, and the enlargement reference point is set so that the representative point approaches a middle of the display area in response to each input of a second user operation for performing enlargement display control, until the representative point coincides with the middle of the display area.

    Abstract: A module which enables slimming down and a timepiece provided with the module are provided. The timepiece module includes a timepiece movement which is a driving section that moves pointers, and a liquid crystal display panel which has an opening section where the timepiece movement is arranged, and is arranged in parallel with the timepiece movement. Since the timepiece movement is arranged in the opening section of the liquid crystal display panel and positioned in parallel with the liquid crystal display panel, the timepiece movement and the liquid crystal display panels do not vertically overlap with each other, whereby the slimming down of the entire timepiece module can be achieved, which enables the slimming down of the entire wristwatch.

    Abstract: An indicator device includes a plurality of light emitters and at least one processor. The processor obtains, at intervals of a first period, a first period maximum value representing a maximum volume among a plurality of pieces of volume information based on an input signal. The processor obtains, for each second period including a plurality of first periods each being the first period, a minimum value among first period maximum values each being the first period maximum value as a second period minimum value and a maximum value among the first period maximum values as a second period maximum value. The processor controls light emission of the light emitters based on a relative ratio of a predetermined first period maximum value among the first period maximum values. The relative ratio is based on the second period minimum value and the second period maximum value.
