Graphic display control apparatus and program

Abstract

A geometrical graphic form (for example, a straight line 100 ) displayed on a geometrical window GW 1 is selected, and a copy operation is carried out. When pasting is carried out for a formula window CW 1 , the selected geometrical form object is converted into the corresponding formula (for example, y=x), and the converted formula is displayed on the formula window CW 1 . A display region (for example, a specified region T 1 ) of the formula is selected, and a copy operation is carried out. When pasting is carried out for the geometrical window GW 1 , a functional graph graphic form 102 is displayed on the geometrical window GW 1 based on the selected formula.

1 . A graphic display control apparatus comprising: 
 a display device comprising a first screen which displays a display mode in a geometrical graphic form and a second screen which displays a display mode in a formula including a character string; and    a conversion display controller which, after a copy operation is made for one of the first screen and the second screen, when a paste operation is made for the other screen, converts a content of one display mode specified by the copy operation into the other display mode specified by the paste operation, and controls a display of the converted content on the other screen.    
   
   
       2 . A graphic display control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the conversion display controller comprises a first display controller which controls a display of a formula on the second screen when the paste operation is made for the second screen.  
   
   
       3 . A graphic display control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the conversion display controller comprises a second unit which regards as a formula a content specified during the copy operation when the copy operation is made for the second screen and displays a geometrical graphic form based on the regarded formula on the first screen when the paste operation is made for the first screen.  
   
   
       4 . An article of manufacture comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable program code means embodied therein, the computer readable program code means comprising: 
 computer readable program code means for causing a computer to display function which displays a formula;    computer readable program code means for causing a computer to select a part or all of the formula;    computer readable program code means for causing a computer to display a plurality of deformation menus;    computer readable program code means for causing a computer to select any one of the plurality of deformation menus;    computer readable program code means for causing a computer to deform a part or all of the formula selected in accordance with the deformation menu selected; and    computer readable program code means for causing a computer to display a formula after deformed.
