本発明の実施の形態を説明する。Embodiments of the present invention will be described.
本発明は、ディジタイザ等の情報処理システムにおいて、入力面に対する入力ペン等のペンダウン、ペンアップ、移動等（以下、これらを総称してイベントと称する）により実行する処理（クリック、ドラッグ等）を判定する判定領域を、時間の経過に従って単調減少させることを特徴とする。In the information processing system such as a digitizer, the present invention determines processing (click, drag, etc.) executed by pen-down, pen-up, movement, etc. of the input pen with respect to the input surface (hereinafter collectively referred to as an event). The determination region to be monotonously decreased as time elapses.
図１を参照して本発明の代表的な例を説明する。図１はディジタイザ等の入力面における判定領域を模式的に示した図であり、実線が最大サイズの判定領域の境界線を示しており、点線が所定の時間経過後の判定領域の境界線を示している。A typical example of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically showing a determination area on an input surface such as a digitizer, where a solid line indicates a boundary of a determination area of a maximum size, and a dotted line indicates a boundary of a determination area after a predetermined time has elapsed. Show.
判定領域は、所定のイベントにより発生し（開始イベント）、発生時が最大サイズである。判定領域のサイズは、判定領域が消滅するタイムアウト時まで単調減少する。ここで、入力面にペンがダウンされた場合を考えると、ペンダウン（開始イベント）された位置を含む判定領域が生成される。判定領域はタイムアウトまで単調減少して消滅するが、消滅するまでの間に判定領域内でペンがアップされるとクリックと判定される。また、ペンダウン後、ペンアップされずに単調減少する判定領域外にペンの移動がなされると、ドラックと判定される。The judgment area is generated by a predetermined event (start event), and the maximum size when it occurs. The size of the determination area monotonously decreases until the timeout when the determination area disappears. Here, considering a case where the pen is lowered on the input surface, a determination region including a position where the pen is lowered (start event) is generated. The determination area monotonously decreases until timeout and disappears, but if the pen is raised in the determination area before disappearance, it is determined that the click is made. In addition, if the pen is moved outside the determination area that monotonously decreases without being pen-up after the pen-down, it is determined as a drag.
尚、ペンアップを開始イベントにして、ペンアップにより判定領域の位置決めを行い、ペンアップにより判定領域を生成するようにしても良い。理由としては、ペンダウンの状態でポインタ等がペンの位置についていくため、最終的にポインタを置いた位置、すなわち、ペンアップした位置がユーザの選択しようとしている位置と考えられるからである。また、このようにすることにより、ペンアップに続く、ペンダウンをペンアップによる判定領域で判定することができる。Note that it is also possible to use pen-up as a start event, position the determination area by pen-up, and generate the determination area by pen-up. The reason is that since the pointer or the like follows the pen position in the pen-down state, the position where the pointer is finally placed, that is, the pen-up position is considered to be the position that the user is trying to select. Further, by doing in this way, it is possible to determine the pen-down following the pen-up in the determination area by the pen-up.
以上のように、イベントにより実行する処理を判定する判定領域を時間の経過に従って単調減少させることで、判定領域が時間の経過に従って変化しない技術と比べて、判定領域が単調減少する分、細かい操作や、イベントによる処理をすばやく判定することができ、より自然な操作感を得ることができる。As described above, the determination area for determining the process to be executed according to the event is monotonously decreased as time elapses, so that the determination area is monotonously decreased as compared with the technology in which the determination area does not change as time elapses. In addition, it is possible to quickly determine the processing due to the event, and to obtain a more natural operation feeling.
更に、判定領域は、現在の状態に応じて連続的に発生させることができるので、ポインタを動かした後にクリックやダブルクリック等の処理を行うようなマウスの操作と同様な連続的な操作も違和感なく行うことができる。Furthermore, since the judgment area can be generated continuously according to the current state, a continuous operation similar to a mouse operation such as a click or double click after moving the pointer is uncomfortable. Can be done without.

６はディスプレイであり、ディジタイザ１０と一体で構成される。6 is a display that is integrated with thedigitizer 10.
ディジタイザ１０は、ディジタイザ制御部１１と、位置検出部１２と、入力面（操作エリア）１３と、表示部１４とを備えている。Thedigitizer 10 includes a digitizer control unit 11, a position detection unit 12, an input surface (operation area) 13, and a display unit 14.
ディジタイザ１０では、ユーザが入力ペン２０を用いて入力面１３上で指示している座標を位置検出部１２が検出し、読み取った座標をディジタイザ制御部１１に送る。尚、本実施形態において、入力面１３はディスプレイ６の画面上に設置されているものとする。尚、本発明は、入力ペン２０を用いなくても適用できるが、その場合には、入力面１３上でユーザの指等が直接触れた位置の座標を位置検出部１２が検出できるように構成する。In thedigitizer 10, the position detection unit 12 detects the coordinates indicated by the user on theinput surface 13 using the input pen 20, and sends the read coordinates to the digitizer control unit 11. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that theinput surface 13 is installed on the screen of thedisplay 6. Note that the present invention can be applied without using the input pen 20, but in that case, the position detection unit 12 can detect the coordinates of the position directly touched by the user's finger or the like on theinput surface 13. To do.
図３を参照してディスプレイ６に表示される画面と入力面１３について説明する。The screen displayed on thedisplay 6 and theinput surface 13 will be described with reference to FIG.
図３は、ディスプレイ６の表示画面に表示される画像と表示画面上に設置されている入力面１３を説明する図である。FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining an image displayed on the display screen of thedisplay 6 and theinput surface 13 installed on the display screen.
図３において、３０はディスプレイ画面である。このディスプレイ画面３０上に重なってディジタイザ１０の入力面（操作エリア）１３が備えられている。３１はポインティング位置で、ユーザが入力ペン２０でペンダウンした位置である。３２はポインタである。In FIG. 3, 30 is a display screen. An input surface (operation area) 13 of thedigitizer 10 is provided on thedisplay screen 30.Reference numeral 31 denotes a pointing position, which is a position where the user pens down with the input pen 20. 32 is a pointer.
３３は軌道で、ユーザが入力ペン２０で描いた軌道であり、この軌道に沿ってポインタ３２が移動する。尚、本実施の形態では軌道３３は表示されるものではなく、説明のため、便宜上、描いたものであるが、表示しても良い。３４はアイコン（オブジェクト）である。ユーザは、入力ペン２０をダウンしたり、アップしたり、移動したりすることにより、ポインタを移動したり、アイコン３４に対してクリックや、ダブルクリック、ドラッグ等の所定の処理を実行させる。33 is a trajectory, which is a trajectory drawn by the user with the input pen 20, and thepointer 32 moves along this trajectory. In the present embodiment, thetrajectory 33 is not displayed, but is drawn for convenience of explanation, but may be displayed.Reference numeral 34 denotes an icon (object). The user moves the pointer by moving the input pen 20 down, up, or moves, and causes theicon 34 to execute predetermined processing such as click, double click, and drag.
次に、入力ペン２０のペンダウン、ペンアップ、移動等のイベントによる、クリックや、ダブルクリック、ドラック等の処理を判定する為の判定領域の制御について述べる。Next, control of the determination area for determining processing such as click, double click, and drag due to events such as pen down, pen up, and movement of the input pen 20 will be described.
判定領域はディジタイザ制御部１１により制御される。ディジタイザ制御部１１は、開始イベントを起点として、開始イベントの検出位置を含む所定のサイズを持つ判定領域を生成する。この判定領域は、生成時が最大サイズであって、設定されたタイムアウト（判定領域が消滅する）までサイズが線形的に減少する。図４は入力面１３における判定領域４０を模式的に示した図であり、実線が最大サイズの判定領域の境界線を示しており、点線が所定時間経過後の判定領域の境界線を示している。尚、本実施の形態では、判定領域のサイズを線形的に減少させるが、かならずしもこれに限られず、本発明の効果を生じる範囲であれば、変更可能である。The judgment area is controlled by the digitizer control unit 11. The digitizer control unit 11 generates a determination area having a predetermined size including the start event detection position, starting from the start event. The determination area has a maximum size when it is generated and linearly decreases in size until a set timeout (determination area disappears). FIG. 4 is a diagram schematically showing thedetermination area 40 on theinput surface 13, where the solid line indicates the boundary line of the determination area of the maximum size, and the dotted line indicates the boundary line of the determination area after a predetermined time has elapsed. Yes. In the present embodiment, the size of the determination region is linearly reduced. However, the size of the determination region is not limited to this, and can be changed as long as the effect of the present invention is produced.
ディジタイザ制御部１１では、位置検出部１２により検出された次イベントが、判定領域４０の内外のいずれかで起こったかを判定し、その結果を入力制御部５に出力する。The digitizer control unit 11 determines whether the next event detected by the position detection unit 12 has occurred inside or outside thedetermination region 40, and outputs the result to the input control unit 5.
入力制御部５は、結果をＣＰＵ２に送り、ＣＰＵ２はその結果に基づいて、クリックや、ダブルクリック、ドラック等の所定の処理を行う。The input control unit 5 sends the result to the CPU 2, and the CPU 2 performs predetermined processing such as click, double click, and drag based on the result.
次に、情報処理装置１の動作を、図５、図６を用いて説明する。尚、図６では、理解を容易とするため、判定領域のサイズを一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。Next, the operation of the information processing apparatus 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 6, for easy understanding, the size of the determination region is expressed in one dimension, the vertical axis is the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis is time.
まず、位置検出部１２がイベント（ペンダウン、ペンアップ、移動）を検出し（Ｓｔｅｐ１００）、そのイベントの位置、時刻を検出する（Ｓｔｅｐ１０１，１０２）。First, the position detection unit 12 detects an event (pen down, pen up, movement) (Step 100), and detects the position and time of the event (Step 101, 102).
次に、ディジタイザ制御部１１は、イベントが開始イベントなのか、次イベントなのかを判定する（Ｓｔｅｐ１０３）。この判定は、判定領域が生成されているかで判断する。開始イベントならば、ディジタイザ制御部１１は、イベントを記憶して判定領域を生成する（Ｓｔｅｐ１０４，１０５）。その後、設定されているタイムアウトまで、判定領域を線形的に減少させていく（Ｓｔｅｐ１０６）。また、ディジタイザ制御部１１は、判定領域を生成したことを記憶する。Next, the digitizer control unit 11 determines whether the event is a start event or a next event (Step 103). This determination is made based on whether a determination area is generated. If it is a start event, the digitizer control unit 11 stores the event and generates a determination area (Steps 104 and 105). Thereafter, the determination area is linearly decreased until the set timeout (Step 106). Also, the digitizer control unit 11 stores that the determination area has been generated.
一方、ディジタイザ制御部１１は、次イベントであるならば、次イベントが判定領域の内で起こったものか、外で起こったものかを、検出されたイベントの座標位置により、判定する（Ｓｔｅｐ１０７）。そして、入力制御部５を介して、判定結果をＣＰＵ２に送信する。On the other hand, if it is the next event, the digitizer control unit 11 determines whether the next event has occurred within the determination region or has occurred based on the coordinate position of the detected event (Step 107). . Then, the determination result is transmitted to the CPU 2 via the input control unit 5.
ＣＰＵ２は、イベントが判定領域の内で起こったものであるならば、処理Ａを行う（Ｓｔｅｐ１０８。また、次イベントが判定領域の外で起こったものであるならば、処理Ｂを行う（Ｓｔｅｐ１０９）。If the event has occurred within the determination area, the CPU 2 performs process A (Step 108. If the next event has occurred outside the determination area, the CPU 2 performs process B (Step 109). .
続いて、具体例を用いた情報処理装置１の動作を説明する。
（１）ポインタの移動
図７はポインタの移動を説明する為の図である。図７では、理解を容易とするため、判定領域を一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。尚、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態で移動を示している。Next, the operation of the information processing apparatus 1 using a specific example will be described.
(1) Movement of Pointer FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining movement of the pointer. In FIG. 7, for easy understanding, the determination region is expressed in one dimension, the vertical axis is the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis is time. In the figure, a white circle with D indicates a pen-down by the input pen 20, a white circle with U indicates a pen-up by the input pen 20, and a solid line indicates the input pen 20. The movement is shown while being in contact with theinput surface 13.
（１）ポインタの移動
図７はポインタの移動を説明する為の図である。図７では、理解を容易とするため、判定領域を一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。尚、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態で移動を示している。Next, the operation of the information processing apparatus 1 using a specific example will be described.
(1) Movement of Pointer FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining movement of the pointer. In FIG. 7, for easy understanding, the determination region is expressed in one dimension, the vertical axis is the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis is time. In the figure, a white circle with D indicates a pen-down by the input pen 20, a white circle with U indicates a pen-up by the input pen 20, and a solid line indicates the input pen 20. The movement is shown while being in contact with the
まず、ユーザが、入力面１３に表示されているポインタに対して、入力ペン２０をペンダウン（開始イベント）すると、ペンダウンの位置を中心として、所定サイズの判定領域が生成される。判定領域はタイムアウトまで線形的に減少していく。First, when the user pens down the input pen 20 with respect to the pointer displayed on the input surface 13 (start event), a determination area of a predetermined size is generated around the pen down position. The judgment area decreases linearly until timeout.
ユーザは、入力ペン２０を入力面１３に接触させた状態で移動（次イベント）を開始し、入力ペン２０の検出位置が判定領域から判定領域外に出た位置の時点で、ポインタの移動処理と判断し、ポインタの移動表示の処理を実行する。The user starts moving (next event) with the input pen 20 in contact with theinput surface 13, and when the detected position of the input pen 20 is out of the determination area from the determination area, the pointer movement process is performed. And the pointer movement display process is executed.
本実施の形態では、判定領域を線形的に減少させているので、判定領域を減少させないものと比べて、入力ペン２０の移動によるポインティング位置が早く判定領域外となるため、判定処理が早くなり、自然な操作できる。
（２）ポインタ移動後のクリックの場合
図８はクリックを説明する為の図である。図８も図７と同様に、理解を容易とするため、判定領域のサイズを一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。尚、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態での移動を示している。また、図中、Ｄが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのアップを示しており、２重点線はマウスの移動を示している。In the present embodiment, since the determination area is linearly decreased, the pointing position due to the movement of the input pen 20 quickly goes out of the determination area compared to the case where the determination area is not decreased, so that the determination process is accelerated. Can be natural operation.
(2) Clicking after moving the pointer FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the clicking. As in FIG. 7, FIG. 8 also represents the size of the determination region in one dimension, the vertical axis represents the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis represents time in order to facilitate understanding. In the figure, a white circle with D indicates a pen-down by the input pen 20, a white circle with U indicates a pen-up by the input pen 20, and a solid line indicates the input pen 20. A movement in a state where theinput surface 13 is brought into contact is shown. In the figure, a hatched circle with D indicates that the left button of the mouse is down, and a hatched circle with U indicates that the left button of the mouse is up. Is shown.
（２）ポインタ移動後のクリックの場合
図８はクリックを説明する為の図である。図８も図７と同様に、理解を容易とするため、判定領域のサイズを一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。尚、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態での移動を示している。また、図中、Ｄが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのアップを示しており、２重点線はマウスの移動を示している。In the present embodiment, since the determination area is linearly decreased, the pointing position due to the movement of the input pen 20 quickly goes out of the determination area compared to the case where the determination area is not decreased, so that the determination process is accelerated. Can be natural operation.
(2) Clicking after moving the pointer FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the clicking. As in FIG. 7, FIG. 8 also represents the size of the determination region in one dimension, the vertical axis represents the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis represents time in order to facilitate understanding. In the figure, a white circle with D indicates a pen-down by the input pen 20, a white circle with U indicates a pen-up by the input pen 20, and a solid line indicates the input pen 20. A movement in a state where the
尚、以下の説明では、ポインタを動かした後や、あるアイコンをドラック後、所定のクリックやダブルクリックを行うことを考慮し、ポインタ移動後又はドラッグ後の最初のペンアップの位置を記憶し、その後にペンアップで生成される判定領域（エリア）は記憶しているペンアップの位置を中心位置として生成するものとする。一方、ペンダウンで生成される判定領域（エリア）の中心位置は、各ペンダウンの位置である。In the following explanation, after moving the pointer or after dragging an icon, taking into account a predetermined click or double click, the position of the first pen up after the pointer movement or after dragging is stored, Thereafter, the determination area (area) generated by pen-up is generated with the stored pen-up position as the center position. On the other hand, the center position of the determination area (area) generated by pen-down is the position of each pen-down.
まず、ユーザが、ポインタの移動後、入力ペン２０をペンアップすると、最後の入力ペン２０の入力面１３の接触位置をペンアップの位置として記憶し、その位置を中心として所定サイズの判定領域（エリア１）が生成される。判定領域（エリア１）はタイムアウトまで線形的に減少していく。First, when the user moves up the input pen 20 after moving the pointer, the contact position on theinput surface 13 of the last input pen 20 is stored as a pen-up position, and a determination area (predetermined size) centered on that position. Area 1) is generated. The determination area (area 1) decreases linearly until timeout.
入力ペン２０がペンダウンされると、ペンダウンされた位置を検出し、この位置が判定領域（エリア１）内であるかを判断する。判定領域（エリア１）内であれば、アイコン等の対象物に対してペンダウンされたと判断する。When the input pen 20 is pen-down, the pen-down position is detected, and it is determined whether this position is within the determination area (area 1). If it is within the determination area (area 1), it is determined that the object such as an icon has been penned down.
続いて、そのペンダウンにより、ペンダウンの位置を中心として所定サイズの判定領域（エリア２）が生成される。判定領域（エリア２）はタイムアウトまで線形的に減少していく。Subsequently, by the pen down, a determination area (area 2) having a predetermined size is generated around the pen down position. The determination area (area 2) decreases linearly until timeout.
入力ペン２０が判定領域（エリア２）内でペンアップされると、アイコン等の対象物に対してペンアップされたと判断する。また、ペンアップにより、記憶されているポインタ移動後の最初のペンアップの位置を中心して所定サイズの判定領域（エリア３）が生成される。判定領域（エリア３）はタイムアウトまで線形的に減少していく。そして、判定領域（エリア３）タイムアウトまでその判定領域内にイベントがなければ、クリックと判断する。When the input pen 20 is pen-up within the determination area (area 2), it is determined that the pen is up with respect to an object such as an icon. In addition, a pen-up generates a determination area (area 3) having a predetermined size centering on the position of the first pen-up after the stored pointer movement. The determination area (area 3) decreases linearly until timeout. Then, if there is no event in the determination area (timeout 3) until the determination area (area 3) times out, it is determined to be a click.
尚、上述の説明では、ペンアップによる判定領域（エリア１、エリア３）のサイズ及びタイムアウトまで時間と、ペンダウンによる判定領域（エリア２）のサイズ及びタイムアウトまで時間とを同一にして説明したが、異ならせても良い。例えば、ペンアップ後にはペンダウンが続くことが多く、ペンダウンはペンアップした位置よりもずれることが多いので、ペンアップによる判定領域（エリア１、エリア３）のサイズ又はタイムアウトまで時間をペンダウンによる判定領域（エリア２）よりも大きくしても良い。
（３）ポインタ移動後のドラッグの場合
図９はドラックの場合を説明する為の図である。図９も図７と同様に、理解を容易とするため、判定領域のサイズを一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。また、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態で移動を示している。また、図中、Ｄが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのアップを示しており、２重点線はマウスの移動を示している。また、下線の引かれたＵが記載された斜線の円はペンアップとマウスの左ボタンのアップとが重なることを示し、下線の引かれたＤが記載された斜線の円はペンダウンとマウスの左ボタンのダウンとが重なることを示している。In the above description, the size of the determination area (area 1 and area 3) due to pen-up and the time until timeout and the size of the determination area (area 2) due to pen-down and the time to timeout have been described as being the same. It may be different. For example, the pen-down often follows the pen-up, and the pen-down often deviates from the pen-up position. Therefore, the size of the determination area (area 1, area 3) due to the pen-up or the time until the timeout is determined by the pen-down It may be larger than (Area 2).
(3) Dragging after moving the pointer FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the dragging case. In FIG. 9, as in FIG. 7, for easy understanding, the size of the determination region is expressed in one dimension, the vertical axis is the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis is time. Further, in the figure, a white circle with D is indicated as pen-down by the input pen 20, and a white circle with U is indicated as pen-up by the input pen 20, and the solid line is the input pen 20. The movement is shown while being in contact with theinput surface 13. In the figure, a hatched circle with D indicates that the left button of the mouse is down, and a hatched circle with U indicates that the left button of the mouse is up. Is shown. In addition, the hatched circle with the underlined U indicates that the pen-up and the left button up of the mouse overlap, and the hatched circle with the underlined D indicates the pen-down and the mouse It shows that the down of the left button overlaps.
（３）ポインタ移動後のドラッグの場合
図９はドラックの場合を説明する為の図である。図９も図７と同様に、理解を容易とするため、判定領域のサイズを一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。また、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態で移動を示している。また、図中、Ｄが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのアップを示しており、２重点線はマウスの移動を示している。また、下線の引かれたＵが記載された斜線の円はペンアップとマウスの左ボタンのアップとが重なることを示し、下線の引かれたＤが記載された斜線の円はペンダウンとマウスの左ボタンのダウンとが重なることを示している。In the above description, the size of the determination area (area 1 and area 3) due to pen-up and the time until timeout and the size of the determination area (area 2) due to pen-down and the time to timeout have been described as being the same. It may be different. For example, the pen-down often follows the pen-up, and the pen-down often deviates from the pen-up position. Therefore, the size of the determination area (area 1, area 3) due to the pen-up or the time until the timeout is determined by the pen-down It may be larger than (Area 2).
(3) Dragging after moving the pointer FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the dragging case. In FIG. 9, as in FIG. 7, for easy understanding, the size of the determination region is expressed in one dimension, the vertical axis is the size of the determination region, and the horizontal axis is time. Further, in the figure, a white circle with D is indicated as pen-down by the input pen 20, and a white circle with U is indicated as pen-up by the input pen 20, and the solid line is the input pen 20. The movement is shown while being in contact with the
まず、ユーザが、入力面１３に表示されているポインタを、ドラックしたいアイコン等の対象物まで移動させる。その後、対象物から入力ペン２０をペンアップ（開始イベント）すると、最後の入力ペン２０の入力面２０の接触位置をペンアップの位置として記憶し、その位置を中心として所定サイズの判定領域（エリア１）が生成される。判定領域（エリア１）はタイムアウトまで線形的に減少していく。First, the user moves the pointer displayed on theinput surface 13 to an object such as an icon to be dragged. Thereafter, when the input pen 20 is pen-up (start event) from the object, the contact position of the input surface 20 of the last input pen 20 is stored as the pen-up position, and a determination area (area) of a predetermined size with the position as the center. 1) is generated. The determination area (area 1) decreases linearly until timeout.
入力ペン２０がペンダウン（次イベント）されると、ペンダウンされた位置を検出し、この位置が判定領域（エリア１）内であるかを判断する。判定領域（エリア１）内であれば、アイコン等の対象物に対してダウンされたと判断する。そして、ペンダウンの位置を中心として所定サイズの判定領域（エリア２）が生成される。When the input pen 20 is pen-down (next event), the pen-down position is detected, and it is determined whether this position is within the determination area (area 1). If it is within the determination area (area 1), it is determined that the object such as an icon has been lowered. Then, a determination area (area 2) having a predetermined size is generated around the pen-down position.
ユーザは、入力ペン２０を入力面１３に接触させた状態で移動を開始し、入力ペン２０の検出位置が判定領域（エリア２）から判定領域外に出た位置の時点で、ドラッグと判断し、アイコンをペンの移動にあわせて移動させる。そして、ペンアップされると、記憶していた前回のポインタ移動後又はドラッグ後のペンアップの位置を消去し、新たにペンアップした位置を記憶し、その位置を中心として所定サイズの判定領域（エリア３）が生成される。The user starts moving with the input pen 20 in contact with theinput surface 13, and determines that the input pen 20 is dragged when the detection position of the input pen 20 is out of the determination area from the determination area (area 2). , Move the icon according to the movement of the pen. Then, when pen-up is performed, the stored pen-up position after the previous pointer movement or dragging is erased, the newly pen-up position is stored, and a determination area of a predetermined size ( Area 3) is generated.
尚、上述の説明では、ペンアップによる判定領域（エリア１、エリア３）のサイズ及びタイムアウトまで時間と、ペンダウンによる判定領域（エリア２）のサイズ及びタイムアウトまで時間とを同一にして説明したが、異ならせても良い。例えば、ペンダウン後にはドラッグ、ペンアップが続くことが多く、ドラッグ等の場合、判定領域のサイズを小さくするか、又はタイムアウトまで時間を短くした方がより早くドラッグとの判定ができるので、ペンダウンによる判定領域（エリア２）のサイズ又はタイムアウトまで時間を、ペンアップによる判定領域（エリア１、エリア３）よりも小さくしても良い。In the above description, the size of the determination area (area 1 and area 3) due to pen-up and the time until timeout and the size of the determination area (area 2) due to pen-down and the time to timeout have been described as being the same. It may be different. For example, dragging and pen-up often continue after pen-down. In the case of drag, etc., it is possible to determine that the drag is faster by reducing the size of the determination area or shortening the time until timeout. The size of the determination area (area 2) or the time until timeout may be made smaller than the determination area (area 1, area 3) by pen-up.
更に、ドラックの最中に、揺れ等により一時的に入力ペン２０が入力面１３から離れてしまうことがある（いわゆるドロップ）。この対策として以下の方法が考えられる。Furthermore, during the drag, the input pen 20 may be temporarily separated from theinput surface 13 due to shaking or the like (so-called drop). The following method can be considered as a countermeasure.
図１０はドラック時のドロップ対策を説明するための図である。FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining countermeasures against drops during dragging.
図１０が図９と異なるところは、入力ペン２０が移動中（ドラッグ中）であることを記憶し、ドラッグ開始後の入力ペン２０のペンアップにより生成される判定領域大きさ及びタイムアウトまでの時間を、通常の判定領域よりも小さくする。FIG. 10 differs from FIG. 9 in that the input pen 20 is moving (dragging), and the determination area size generated by the pen up of the input pen 20 after dragging and the time until timeout are stored. Is made smaller than the normal determination region.
図１０では、入力ペン２０が判定領域（エリア２）外に出てから入力ペン２０をドロップした場合を示しており、ドロップ時にドロップ（ペンアップ）した位置を中心としてドロップ対策エリア（判定領域）を生成している。そして、そのドロップ対策エリア（判定領域）内にペンダウンがされた場合には引き続きドラッグを継続するように構成している。FIG. 10 shows a case where the input pen 20 is dropped after the input pen 20 goes out of the determination area (area 2). The drop countermeasure area (determination area) is centered on the position where the input pen 20 is dropped (pen-up). Is generated. When the pen is downed in the drop countermeasure area (determination area), the drag is continued.
また、同様に、ドラッグ後のペンアップも、ドロップ対策エリア（判定領域）を生成しており、そのドロップ対策エリア（判定領域）内にペンダウンが行われなければ、ドラッグの終了としている。Similarly, the pen-up after dragging also generates a drop countermeasure area (determination area), and if the pen-down is not performed in the drop countermeasure area (determination area), the drag is ended.
これにより、一時的に入力ペンが離れた場合であっても、判定領域内に再びペンダウンが行われることでドロップ対策を実現できるとともに、ドラッグ終了の判定に要する時間を短縮することができ、ドラックをスムーズに行うことができる。
（４）ポインタ移動後のダブルクリックの場合
図１１はポインタ移動後のダブルクリックを説明する為の図である。図１１も図７と同様に、理解を容易とするため、判定領域のサイズを一次元で表現し、縦軸を判定領域のサイズ、横軸を時間としたものである。尚、図中、Ｄが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された白抜きの円は入力ペン２０によるペンアップを示しており、実線は入力ペン２０の入力面１３に接触させた状態での移動を示している。また、図中、Ｄが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのダウンを示し、Ｕが記載された斜線の円はマウスの左ボタンのアップを示しており、２重点線はマウスの移動を示している。As a result, even when the input pen is temporarily removed, the pen-down is performed again in the determination area, so that it is possible to realize a countermeasure against dropping, and it is possible to reduce the time required for determining the end of the drag, Can be done smoothly.
(4) Double-click after moving pointer FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining double-click after moving the pointer. In FIG. 11, as in FIG. 7, for easy understanding, the size of the determination area is expressed in one dimension, the vertical axis is the size of the determination area, and the horizontal axis is time. In the figure, a white circle with D indicates a pen-down by the input pen 20, a white circle with U indicates a pen-up by the input pen 20, and a solid line indicates the input pen 20. A movement in a state where theinput surface 13 is brought into contact is shown.

A region (area 1) is generated. The determination area (area 1) decreases linearly until timeout.
