Patent number: 9342232Abstract: An information-processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention allows the user to select one of a plurality of input operation modes of the absolute coordinate input unit. One of the input operation modes is a specific mode allowing a display range to be moved to a desired position in a state where the highest resolution of a display unit integrated with the absolute coordinate input unit is lower than the resolution of an entire screen. The information-processing apparatus has a configuration in which, when an operation face of the absolute coordinate input unit is touched to carry out a drag operation in this specific mode, the distance of a movement made in the drag operation is detected, and the position of the display range is then changed by moving the display range by the detected distance.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2010Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: SONY CORPORATIONInventors: Jian Wang, Takashi Sato, Hiroki Tamai, Takanori Nishimura
