Embodiment Construction

[0037] Next, we will refer to Figure 1 to Figure 7 Describing the first embodiment of the present invention, like parts and components are designated by like reference numerals in the drawings to avoid duplication of description. figure 1 is a block diagram showing the internal structure of a multifunction peripheral (hereinafter referred to as “MFP”) 1 .

[0038]The MFP 1 is a multifunction peripheral having multiple functions including a facsimile function and a printer function. The MFP 1 also allows the user to modify various setting items that define the operating conditions of each function and the like. The MFP 1 can display one of a plurality of prepared setting screens that allow the user to modify the value for each setting item. The setting screens are displayed on a liquid crystal display (LCD) 27 in a sequence following a predetermined screen navigation path. As will be described in more detail later, the MFP 1 is capable of displaying on the LCD 27 useful inf...

Abstract

A display device includes a display unit, a first display control unit, a title string storing unit, a concatenated string creating unit, a determining unit, a navigation string creating unit, and a second display control unit. The display unit includes a first portion and a second portion. The first display control unit is configured to display one of a plurality of screen images on the first portion. The plurality of screen images includes a base screen image. The first display control unit changes a screen image to display from one to another of the plurality of screen images along a screen navigation path starting from the base screen image. The title string storing unit is configured to store a plurality of title strings. Each title string indicating one of the plurality of screen images. The concatenated string creating unit is configured to create a concatenated string including the title strings each corresponding to a screen image which is positioned in a part of the screen navigation path from the base screen image to a current screen image that is displayed on the first portion currently. The determining unit is configured to determine whether or not the concatenated string is too large to be displayed entirely on the second portion. The navigation string creating unit is configured to create a navigation string by deleting an at least one of the title strings from the concatenated string when the determining unit determines that the concatenated string is too large to be displayed entirely on the second portion. The second display control unit is configured to display the navigation string on the second portion.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a display device. Background technique [0002] A multifunction peripheral is known in the art as a single device capable of performing multiple functions such as a facsimile function, a printer function, a scanner function, and a copier function. The multifunctional peripheral allows the user to modify various setting items such as resolution, density, and zoom percentage. The user can perform desired operations on the multifunction peripheral after modifying the setting values ​​as necessary. [0003] For example, the user can follow the procedure described below to modify the setting values ​​for the multifunction peripheral. First, the multifunction peripheral displays a setting menu screen on a display panel provided on the multifunction peripheral. The menu screen includes various selection items for each function of the multifunction peripheral, such as facsimile settings and scanner settings, and general sett...
