[0033] figure 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the arrangement of the information processing device according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0034] refer to figure 1 , reference numeral 101 denotes a central processing unit (hereinafter referred to as CPU) which performs arithmetic and control operations of the information processing device. Reference numeral 102 denotes a random access memory (hereinafter referred to as RAM), which serves as a main memory of the CPU 101 and also serves as an area for executing a program, and an execution area and a data area of ​​the program.

[0035] Reference numeral 103 denotes a read only memory (hereinafter referred to as ROM) which records a program realizing the operation processing sequence of the CPU 101 . The ROM 103 includes a program ROM recording basic software (OS) as a system program for obtaining device control of the information processing apparatus, and a data ROM recording data such as inf...

no. 2 approach

[0096] Since the second embodiment has the same figure 1 and figure 2 The same settings as in the first embodiment will not be repeated, and the differences from the first embodiment will be explained.

[0097] Figure 6 is a view for explaining the folder hierarchy generation method according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

[0098] Figure 6 The upper middle window 300 has the same image 3 The upper middle window 300 is in the same state, in other words, the folder "folder 1-1" is selected and opened. and image 3 The difference is that the hierarchical structure is generated by providing a display switching button 310, wherein the display switching button 310 is used to switch the restricted display state and the normal display state to the restricted display folder "folder 1-1".

[0099] When the user presses Figure 6 When the switch button 310 is displayed on the window 300 at the top of the center, all subfolders of the folder "folder 1-1" a...

[0107] In the third embodiment, the hierarchical structure may be regenerated based on the detection of the operation on the folder element display area 301 instead of the operation of the folder hierarchy.

[0108] Since the third embodiment has the same figure 1 and figure 2 For the same settings as in the first embodiment, the detailed description thereof will not be repeated, and the differences from the first embodiment will be explained.

[0109] Figure 7 is a view for explaining the folder hierarchy generation method according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

[0110] exist Figure 7 On the upper middle window 300, select an arbitrary folder, and switch the hierarchical structure to limited display. Folder element display area 301 displays subfolders in the selected folder. When the user creates a new folder 311 ("folder 1-1-2a") for these folder elements, the hierarchy is regenerated as Figure 7 Window 300 is shown in the bottom left of the cent...

Abstract

The number of folders to be displayed required to restrict and display folders on a lower hierarchy of a folder expanded by the folder opening and closing module is determined based on the number of folders included in the lower hierarchy to be expanded, and the height of the window. The folders included in the lower hierarchy are displayed to have the determined number of folders to be displayed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention involves the use of hierarchical structure to perform information processing equipment and control methods for display control of folder groups. Background technique [0002] In order to indicate the structure (directory) of the folder on the operating system using the GUI (graphical user interface), the usual method is to use the tree format to display the folder configuration with a parent-sub-relationship. [0003] For example, Microsoft Windows TM The window system also displays the hierarchical structure of the folder on the left side of the window, and shows the elements (folders and files) under the folder selected from the hierarchical structure. [0004] In order to open the folder at the low level, the user clicks the folder name or icon. The folder icon is assigned to the folder name and is used to open / close the folderEssence [0005] In the display method of the folder level structure of this tree structure, when a level i...
