  • Patent number: 10409467
    Abstract: Provided is a presentation control device which, in a movement of a window between displays, appropriately controls a positioning of a window to be moved after the movement without a user designating a presentation location upon a movement destination display. With this device, a layout storage unit (1008) retains one or more layout patterns which establish a presentation region, formed from a presentation location and a presentation size of each window which is presented upon a display. Using the layout pattern, a layout determination unit (1007) determines a presentation region wherein it is possible to present a moved window. A presentation control unit (1002) generates presentation data which positions the moved window in a presentation location which the layout determination unit (1007) has established.

  • Patent number: 8963929
    Abstract: An interpreter 11 outputs a drawing request to an animation controller upon interpreting an animation drawing instruction defined with use of a predetermined script variable. The animation controller 12 animation-displays a GUI by executing a program module described in a native language. Upon receiving the drawing request, the animation controller 12 converts the script variable into a native variable in the form of the native language, and animation-displays the GUI while sequentially updating the native variable.
