Dynamic Display Region Overlap Prevention via Priority Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display control systems struggle to optimally adjust the display of objects when the size of divided regions on a display screen changes dynamically, leading to suboptimal display arrangements.
Innovation Solution
A display control device that includes a divided-region setting unit to dynamically change the size of divided regions, a display control unit to adjust the relative positional relationship and arrangement of display objects within these regions, and a priority setting unit to manage the display of objects based on priority when overlapping occurs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the size of divided regions is dynamically changed, then the display can be adapted to different user needs, but the display objects may overlap or become improperly arranged
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adjustment of display object arrangements based on real-time divided region size changes. The display control unit continuously monitors region size variations and automatically repositions display objects to maintain optimal arrangement, transforming the static display system into a dynamic one that adapts while preserving composition stability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs feedback mechanisms where the display control unit detects changes in divided region sizes and uses this information to adjust display object positions. This closed-loop control ensures that display arrangements remain stable and non-overlapping even as region sizes dynamically change in response to user operations.
2Ease of manufacture
If display objects are simply resized or laid out stepwise when divided region size changes, then the implementation is simple, but the display is not sufficiently conforming to dynamic size changes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes multiple display parameters simultaneously including display object size, position, and arrangement density in response to divided region size changes. This multi-parameter adjustment approach achieves better conformity to dynamic size changes while maintaining implementation feasibility through systematic control rules.
3Quantity of substance
If multiple display objects are arranged in each divided region, then the information display capacity is increased, but overlapping occurs when region size changes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the divided region into multiple arrangement regions, with each arrangement region designated for specific display objects. This segmentation prevents overlapping by assigning dedicated spaces to different display objects while maintaining the capacity to display multiple objects within the overall divided region.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces arrangement regions as an intermediate spatial dimension between the divided region and individual display objects. This additional organizational layer allows multiple display objects to coexist without overlapping by distributing them across different arrangement regions within the same divided region.

AI summary
A display control device includes a divided-region setting unit for dynamically changing a size of a divided region provided on a screen. A display control unit provides arrangement regions on the divided region and changes a relative positional relationship between the arrangement regions on the same divided region in conformity with change in size of the divided region, each of the arrangement regions on which at least one or more display objects are arranged, and a priority setting unit configured to set relative priority with respect to the arrangement regions provided on the same display region. When the relative positional relationship between the arrangement regions on the same divided region is changed, which causes the arrangement regions to overlap at least partially, the display control unit controls display of the display objects in a unit of arrangement region, based on the priority set for each of the arrangement regions.
