A plurality of screen aspects is acquired; each screen layout is optimized; switching of the screen aspects is supported; and visibility and functionality of the display screen are improved. An electronic device (portable terminal apparatus) including a display function in a rotatable and/or openable/closable case includes a displaying unit that displays a vertically elongated vertical screen or a horizontally elongated horizontal screen and a controlling unit (CPU) that changes screen layouts correspondingly to the vertical screen or the horizontal screen displayed on the displaying unit. The change in the screen layout corresponding to the vertical screen or the horizontal screen includes a change in arrangement of icons.

Electronic device, controlling method thereof, controlling program thereof, and recording medium

With regard to an electronic device including a display function in a rotatable housing, operations necessary for function calling and determining processes are facilitated. An electronic device (portable terminal apparatus) including a display function in a rotatable housing includes a displaying unit that displays a first screen (e.g., vertical screen) or a second screen (e.g., horizontal screen) in accordance with rotation, and a controlling unit (CPU) that launches a function by rotating the displaying unit and switching the first screen to the second screen and that determines an selected item from the switched second screen by rotating and returning the displaying unit from the second screen to the first screen.

Electronic device, control method thereof, and recording medium

An electronic device corrects its device side time with a time correction information supplied from outside the device. The electronic device includes a reception section and a time correction section. The reception section receives the time correction information. The time correction section judges whether the information is received during any correction inhibiting periods of the device side time, then either discards the time correction information if it is received during the correction inhibiting periods, or corrects the device side time with the time correction information if it is received other than the correction inhibiting periods.

Electronic device, time correction method and time correction program thereof

The present invention is intended to speed up rendering that is performed in the course of displaying a document that contains both icons and characters. A character display device that displays a document containing both icons and characters includes: a searching unit that searches the position in the document where an icon appears, a counter unit that counts the number of characters which successively appear until the position where the icon appears searched by the searching unit; and a rendering unit that renders the same number of characters, which successively appear, as the number of characters counted by the counter after designating the attributes shared by the characters, and then renders the icon after designating the attributes of the icon.
