Electronic device, recording medium, and method of controlling display on electronic device

Abstract

An electronic device capable of making conversation using push to talk comprises a display module configured to display information, and a display controller configured to control the display module. The display controller makes the display module display a first display screen containing information about conversation using push to talk while the electronic device makes the conversation. When the display controller makes the display module display a display screen different from the first display screen while the electronic device makes the conversation, the display controller incorporates information on the first display screen into a partial region of the different display screen.

1 . An electronic device comprising:
 a display configured to simultaneously display information within a notification region and a screen region; and   at least one processor that, during a push-to-talk conversation,
 displays, in the notification region, a current condition of a floor of the push-to-talk conversation, and, 
 in response to a first operation initiated within the notification region, extends the notification region over the screen region, and displays conversation information, comprising the current condition of the floor and a duration of the push-to-talk conversation, within the extension of the notification region. 
   
     
     
         2 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the notification region is always included on the display, regardless of a screen displayed in the screen region. 
     
     
         3 . The electronic device according to  claim 2 , wherein the current condition of the floor, displayed in the notification region, comprises a temporary character string that disappears after an elapse of time. 
     
     
         4 . The electronic device according to  claim 2 , wherein the current condition of the floor, displayed in the notification region, comprises a figure. 
     
     
         5 . The electronic device according to  claim 2 , further comprising a touch panel, wherein the at least one processor, when a second touch operation is performed on the conversation information, displayed in the extension of the notification region, switches from displaying the extension of the notification region over the screen region to displaying a conversation screen for the push-to-talk conversation in the screen region. 
     
     
         6 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor displays, in the screen region, a home screen. 
     
     
         7 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a touch panel, wherein the first operation is a touch operation to the touch panel, and wherein the touch operation comprises a touch within the notification region followed by a drag from the notification region to the screen region. 
     
     
         8 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium configured to store a control program configured to control an electronic device capable of performing a push-to-talk function, the control program configured to make the electronic device:
 simultaneously display information within a notification region and a screen region; and,   during a push-to-talk conversation,
 display, in the notification region, a current condition of a floor of the push-to-talk conversation, and, 
 in response to an operation initiated within the notification region, extend the notification region over the screen region, and display conversation information, comprising the current condition of the floor and a duration of the push-to-talk conversation, within the extension of the notification region. 
   
     
     
         9 . A method of controlling display on an electronic device capable of performing a push-to-talk function, the method comprising:
 simultaneously displaying information within a notification region and a screen region; and,   during a push-to-talk conversation,
 displaying, in the notification region, a current condition of a floor of the push-to-talk conversation, and, 
 in response to an operation initiated within the notification region, extending the notification region over the screen region, and displaying conversation information, comprising the current condition of the floor and a duration of the push-to-talk conversation, within the extension of the notification region.
