Problem To improve operability. Solving Means There is provided a display apparatus for moving a drag object on a screen in accordance with an operation of a pointer performed by a user. The display apparatus includes: a detection unit for detecting a target object on the screen, the target object being a destination of the drag object; and a display control unit for displaying the drag object in a position closer to the target object than a display position of the pointer moved in accordance with an operation performed by a user. As a distance between the pointer and the target object becomes shorter, the display control unit makes larger an offset amount by which the drag object is offset from the pointer in a direction close to the target object, and as an association degree representing strength of an association between the drag object and the target object becomes higher, the display control snit makes the offset amount larger.

Moving a drag object on a screen

A display apparatus configured to move a drag object on a screen in accordance with an operation of a pointer. The display apparatus can include a detection unit configured to detect a target object on the screen, the target object being a destination of the drag object, and a display control unit configured to display the drag object in a position closer to the target object than a display position of the pointer moved in accordance with an operation performed by a user.

Display apparatus, program, and display method

Moving a drag object on a screen in accordance with an operation of a pointer includes moving, using a processor, the drag object by a movement amount larger than a movement amount of a pointer, wherein a display position of the pointer is moved in accordance with an operation performed by a user, and displaying the drag object.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, a computer system and its computer program which are for presenting a candidate to be linked with a component when the component is to be linked to another component in a web application. In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of: displaying at least two components on a display device; allowing a user to select at least one tag from tags (first tags) on one component (a first component) of the at least two components; identifying a second component having the same tag as the selected first tag; and presenting the identified second component to the user.

Method for presenting candidate for link target to component in web application, as well as computer program and computer system for the same

An embodiment of the invention includes an information management server with a registration unit that registers a status change condition of a database and a notification action so that they are associated with each other. Also, the information management server includes a communication unit that receives an acquisition request for a status change notification via database connection established with respect to a client and a change detection unit that detects a status change satisfying the condition of the acquisition request and invokes the notification action associated therewith. According to aspect of the invention, a notification unit causes the communication unit to send a notification including a result of the notification action via the database connection as a response to the acquisition request, and returns control of the connection to the client.
