Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

Abstract

An information processing apparatus that controls a display on one or more display apparatuses includes a determination unit that determines whether at least a portion of a display part in a window displayed in a displayable region of the display apparatus is arranged on a position outside the displayable region and a changing unit that changes, based on a result of the determination, at least the position of the display part or the size of the display part or the size of a region where the display part is displayed, such that at least the portion of the display part is not arranged on a position outside the displayable region.

1 . An information processing apparatus configured to display a window including a plurality of display parts in each of a plurality of regions over a first displayable region and a second displayable region, the information processing apparatus comprising:
 a memory storing a program; and   one or more processors which, by executing the program, function as:   a determination unit configured to determine whether a display part in the window is arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region; and   a changing unit configured to change, by using a position of a first display part and a position of a second display part in a region where the first display part is to be arranged based on a result of the determination, the position of the first display part and the position of the second display part, such that the first display part is prevented from being arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region and from overlapping without the second display part, in a case where the determination unit determined that the first display part is arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region.   
     
     
         2 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the first display part and the second display part have functions different from each other. 
     
     
         3 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the information processing apparatus comprises a first display apparatus configured to display the first displayable region, and a second display apparatus configured to display the second displayable region. 
     
     
         4 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the changing unit is configured to change the position of the first display part and the position of the second display part based on a moving direction of the display parts to be set to the region where the first display part is to be arranged. 
     
     
         5 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the changing unit is configured to change the position of the first display part and the position of the second display part based on a degree of priority of a display part in the region where the first display part is to be arranged. 
     
     
         6 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 5 , wherein the changing unit is configured to change a position of the display part in descending order of the degree of priority of the display part. 
     
     
         7 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the changing unit is configured to raise the degree of priority of the display part for a display part positioned opposite to the moving direction to be set to the region where the first display part is to be arranged. 
     
     
         8 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein, in a case where a free space for changing the position of the display part is not secured in the region where the first display part is to be arranged, the changing unit is configured to hide the display part that protrudes from the region or change a display form as a decompression button. 
     
     
         9 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein, in a case where a free space for changing the position of the display part is not secured in the region where the first display part is to be arranged, the changing unit is configured to change a size of the region. 
     
     
         10 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the changing unit does not execute the change in a case where the determination unit determines that the first display part is not arranged over the first displayable region of the first display apparatus and the second displayable region of the second display apparatus. 
     
     
         11 . An information processing method of displaying a window including a plurality of display parts in each of a plurality of regions over a first displayable region and a second displayable region, the information processing method comprising:
 determining whether a display part in the window is arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region; and   changing, by using a position of a first display part and a position of a second display part in a region where the first display part is to be arranged based on a result of the determination, the position of the first display part and the position of the second display part, such that the first display part is prevented from being arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region and from overlapping without the second display part, in a case where the determination unit determined that the first display part is arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region.   
     
     
         12 . An non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that causes a computer to execute an information processing method of displaying a window including a plurality of display parts in each of a plurality of regions over a first displayable region and a second displayable region, the information processing method comprising:
 determining whether a display part in the window is arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region; and   changing, by using a position of a first display part and a position of a second display part in a region where the first display part is to be arranged based on a result of the determination, the position of the first display part and the position of the second display part, such that the first display part is prevented from being arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region and from overlapping without the second display part, in a case where the determination unit determined that the first display part is arranged over the first displayable region and the second displayable region.
