  • Publication number: 20210258438
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to indicate one or more rearrangement-target icons to a user without producing an animation display in a case where icon rearrangement is performed by the drag and drop operation. One embodiment of the present invention is an apparatus including: a derivation unit configured to derive one or more icons different from a first icon, which are rearrangement targets in a case where the drop operation is performed for the first icon during the drag operation of the first icon among icons displayed on a display unit; and a display control unit configured to perform control so that the display unit additionally displays a first mark for the one or more icons derived by the derivation unit.

  • Publication number: 20210084180
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment by the present disclosure includes a storage unit for storing a reading size, an identifying unit for identifying the reading size using a sensor, a reading unit for reading an image of a document, and a setting unit for setting the identifying unit to identify the reading size. In case of the identifying unit identifying the size of the document in a state where the setting unit sets the identifying unit to identify the reading size, the reading unit reads the image of the document based on the size identified by the identifying unit. In case of the identifying unit not identifying the size of the document in the state where the setting unit sets the identifying unit to identify the reading size, the reading unit reads the image of the document based on the size stored in the storage unit.
