  • Information processing device and information processing method for displaying menu with orthogonal sub-menus
    Patent number: 10289271
    Abstract: Provided is an information processing device including: a detection unit configured to detect a position of a manipulating object, and a display control unit configured to cause a menu to be displayed on a screen according to the position of the manipulating object detected by the detection unit. The display control unit causes, when the detection unit detects that the manipulating object is positioned on a first icon serving as a base point, one or more second icons corresponding to a main menu to be opened and displayed, and causes, when the detection unit detects that the manipulating object is positioned on one of the second icons, one or more third icons corresponding to a sub-menu subordinate to the main menu to be opened in a direction orthogonal to an opening direction of the second icons and displayed by using the selected second icon as a base point.
