PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely select a target hot spot to be selected. SOLUTION: On the assumption that a specification error is generated at the time of selecting a target hot spot to be selected, a pointer 4 having an area is used for rounding the specification error. A pointing area including the target hot spot is determined by using the pointer 4. Then hot spots overlapped with the pointing area are listed up. Then the listed-up hot spots are displayed by an enlarged display state. Finally the target hot spot 2 is selected from the enlarged hot spots.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a snap function of realizing smooth movement of an object without deteriorating operability. SOLUTION: The object editing system has an arranging means for arranging the object and an adsorption object in a predetermined display area, a moving means for moving the object in the display area, an adsorbing means for adsorbing the object to the adsorption object on the basis of a distance between the object and the adsorption object, and a limiting means for preventing adsorption of the object to the adsorption object on the basis of an advancing direction of the object. In the object editing system, the adsorbing means adsorbs the object to the adsorption object in response to that the distance between the object and the adsorption object becomes smaller than a predetermined threshold.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To immediately notice the mis-depression of a key in a method for displaying the mouse pointer of a three-key mouse. SOLUTION: Respective detection parts 32-37 detect outer force that a third key receives. A mouse function decision part 38 decides a function allocated to a third key from the outer force detection result. A mouse pointer form determining part 40 determines the form of a mouse pointer, which corresponds to the function, based on the function decision result. The form of the mouse pointer in the middle of display is changed in response to outer force. Since the addition of outer force to the third key can be fed back through eyes, a user can immediately notice the mis-depression of the key.
