Display

[Object] To provide a display apparatus that makes it possible to improve visibility. [Solution] A display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a display body device including a plurality of pixels, the plurality of pixels each including a plurality of light-emitting elements as light source elements; and an irregular structure formed on a front surface of the display body device.

Display apparatus

[Object] To facilitate user's operations. [Solution] An editing apparatus is provided including: a component output unit for outputting a display screen on which a plurality of components are displayed; a node output unit for outputting a plurality of nodes respectively corresponding to the plurality of components on the display screen so that the nodes are displayed along with the plurality of components so as to overlap the display of the plurality of components; and a setting unit for setting, in response to a user's instruction of association between two or more of the nodes, an association between two or more of the components corresponding to the two or more of the nodes.

Displaying nodes visually offset from associated components

A method for facilitating selection of an object on the display screen, an apparatus for implementing the method, and a program for causing a computer to function as the apparatus are provided. The method includes the steps of selecting a specific object on the display screen in response to a user input, extracting any of a plurality of objects displayed on the display screen that overlaps the selected specific object as a selection candidate by following a tree structure of the objects, and displaying a selection switching view including an element representing the selection candidate in the vicinity of the selected specific object.

Facilitating selection of objects on display screens

To provide a method, a program and a system for supporting the input of one or more execution parameters of predetermined software in an input field. The method includes: receiving input of a text character string including one or more execution parameters in the input field displayed on a display device; displaying one the display device one or more execution options of the predetermined software in such a manner that a user can select the options in response to selection of a part of the text character string by the user; and transforming the text character string so as to include at least one of the one or more execution options selected and displaying the transformed text character string on the display device. The one or more execution options displayed can vary with the type of selection of the part of the text character string.

Method, system and program for supporting input of execution parameter of predetermined software to input field

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.

A display device includes: a display of which a display surface is displayed with an image; plural light sources which output light toward the display, and configure a backlight; a diffuser plate arranged between the display and the plural light sources, and diffuses light output from the light source; and a support pin arranged on the opposite side to the display by interposing the diffuser plate therebetween, and holds the diffuser plate by being in contact with the diffuser plate. A plate shaped unit formed in a transparent plate shape is provided at a portion located on the diffuser plate side in the support pin, the plural light sources and the support pin are arranged in line in a direction orthogonal to a direction in which the display and the diffuser plate are aligned, and the plate shaped unit is caused to face the light source in the shortest distance.

Display device

A light control member includes a plate-like member including a first flat surface and a second surface facing the first surface. The second surface has at least three prism line groups, each group including a plurality of substantially parallel linear prisms. Each one of the linear prisms of one prism line group intersects the linear prisms of other prism line groups at one intersection point, and each linear prism is formed into a convex shape having a substantially curved outer edge when viewed along its longitudinal direction.

Light control member with intersecting groups of parallel prisms, and light-emitting device using such member

An application with a function for inputting feedback incorporated into it is created and presented with the present embodiment. By this means, feedback about the problems in the running of the application may be obtained efficiently. In addition, an application with a function for inputting feedback about the components that define the operations of the application and a function that maintains a correspondence between the feedback descriptions and the components that are the target of the feedback incorporated into it is created by the present embodiment. By this means, the component in the application that the feedback concerns may easily be determined.

Program presentation with reviewer feedback maintenance

An editing apparatus for editing objects on a screen includes an object input display section for displaying contents which have been input by a user, as objects on a screen. The apparatus also includes an object extension section for superposing at least one side of a first object on one side or on an extension line of the side of a second object by extending an external form of the first object among the plurality of objects displayed by the object input display section, to a position within a range which does not overlap the second object.
