Personalized Operation Guide Display for Editing Templates
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing editing applications lack an effective method to provide users with personalized operation guides based on their editing history, especially when working with specific templates.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that includes a reception unit for selecting a template, an obtainment unit for retrieving operation history information, and a display control unit to show an operation guide associated with the selected template on a display unit, utilizing the operation history information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If generic operation guides are displayed for all users, then the information processing apparatus can provide basic guidance, but the user experience lacks personalization and relevance to individual editing histories
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by obtaining and storing operation history information in advance before the user needs guidance. The reception unit receives selection of a template, the obtainment unit retrieves relevant operation history, and the display control unit prepares personalized operation guides based on this pre-obtained history, so that when the user needs help, personalized guidance is already ready to be displayed
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by using the user's own operation history information to generate personalized operation guides. The display control unit retrieves operation history that reflects the user's actual editing behavior and uses this feedback to tailor the operation guide content, making it relevant to the user's specific needs and experience level with the template
2Ease of operation
If operation guides are displayed for every template operation, then users receive comprehensive guidance, but users may experience information overload and confusion
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies taking out by extracting only the relevant operation history information that is specific to the selected template from the user's complete editing history. The display control unit filters and selects only the operation guide items that correspond to the currently selected template, separating relevant guidance from unrelated information, thereby providing comprehensive yet focused guidance without overwhelming the user
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements local quality by making the operation guide content specific to the local context of the selected template. Instead of displaying generic or universally applicable guides, the system tailors the operation guide to match the specific characteristics and requirements of the chosen template, providing localized guidance that is precisely relevant to the user's current task
3Productivity
If personalized operation guides based on operation history are implemented, then user experience and operational efficiency are improved, but the system requires additional functionality for obtaining and processing history data
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies universality by designing the information processing apparatus with multi-functional components that handle multiple tasks. The reception unit not only receives template selection but also coordinates with the obtainment unit to retrieve operation history and works with the display control unit to present personalized guides. This multi-functional integration allows the system to achieve personalized guidance without requiring entirely separate dedicated systems for history management

AI summary
An information processing apparatus includes: one or more processors and/or circuitry which function as: a reception unit configured to receive selection of a template which is a target of editing processing; an obtainment unit configured to obtain operation history information indicating history of an editing operation in the editing processing; and a display control unit configured to display an operation guide associated with the selected template, which is received, on a display unit based on the operation history information.
