Abstract: When the device is rotated from a portrait orientation to landscape orientation, or vice versa, the display device rotates the content items within distinct respective content regions of a page template (“slots”) that each appear to stay in their same position with respect to a frame of reference of the display device. While the content regions stay in their same positions, the content within each content region counter-rotates in place to offset the rotation of the display device. Thus, the content within the content regions maintains an orientation with respect to a constant (non-rotating) frame of reference, regardless of the orientation or rotation of the display device. In one embodiment, a slot's position, height, and width in a template in a second orientation are determined from the slot's position, height, and width in the template in a first orientation.

Abstract: The fact that B and R are close to a U axis and to a V axis, respectively, is noted. On that basis, from an example of color adjustment parameters set in directions of colors, it is found out that, when inputted V is in a negative range, B has a small influence. Accordingly, a B component is omitted from calculation in order to reduce a calculation amount. Similarly, components having small influences are omitted when B is in a positive range, when U is in the positive range, and when U is in the negative range. Thereby, adjustment parameters AR, AG, and AB set in directions shown in the drawing can be defined. When inputted V is in the positive range, a V component can be adjusted by multiplying AR by the inputted V. Similar processing is performed when inputted V is in the negative range, when U is in the positive range, and when U is the negative range, respectively.
