Abstract
A display apparatus includes: a pixel electrode; a switching element that is connected to the pixel electrode; a scanning line that transfers a signal by which the switching element is driven; an image line that transfers a signal by which the pixel electrode is charged; a liquid crystal layer that includes liquid crystal molecules; a plurality of domains that are different in alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules when a voltage is applied to the liquid crystal layer; an alignment boundary portion that is positioned in a boundary of the plurality of domains; an alignment film that aligns the liquid crystal molecules, and a capacitor line that extends along the transverse direction and is arranged so as to be overlapped with the pixel electrode with an insulating film in between and overlapped with at least a part of the alignment boundary portion.
