Abstract:
A user interface is controlled to support a user using an image processing apparatus which can perform a task, for example, for storing image data obtained by a scanner in a memory or printing the image by a printer. In a display apparatus which can display a user interface including operation items, a user's intention is estimated, and an operation by the user for specifying a task is supported. For example, statuses of an image input unit and an image accept unit relating to execution of the task are monitored, and display forms of the operation items are varied in accordance with results of the monitoring.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus improved in convenience of reusing executed jobs. A selection screen for selecting between jobs for image processing, and a configuration screen for selecting setting values for a selected job are displayed on a display. A combination of setting values of setting items for an executed job are accumulated in an HDD in association with a job selected on the selection screen when executing the job. A custom job displayed on the selection screen is registered together with setting values configured by a user. The accumulated executed jobs are selectively displayed on the selection screen, together with application jobs associated with the image processing functions, and registered custom jobs configured by the user. The executed jobs are displayed on the selection screen such that jobs executed by selecting the application job and jobs executed by selecting the custom job are discernible.

Abstract:
This invention relates to an information processing apparatus being able to execute first and second functions and set the processing conditions of each function by using a user interface, and a control method of the information processing apparatus. In a case that either of the first and second functions is selected, an application common to both the first and second functions is launched, and a user interface window generated based on common data corresponding to the application is displayed. The processing conditions of the selected function can be set from the user interface window.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus for executing a plurality of applications associated with specific functions to perform image processing includes a first registration unit that, when executing any one of the plurality of applications, automatically registers first setting data set for the application in a storage unit in association with the application, a second registration unit that, according to a registration instruction from a user, registers second setting data set for any one of the plurality of applications in association with the application, and a display control unit that displays a calling-up and setting screen including a first button group for calling up the first setting data automatically registered in the storage unit and a second button group for calling up the second setting data registered in the storage unit.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus that displays a list of items and a control method thereof, wherein the displayed list of items is displayed by sliding in response to an instruction operation by a user, if it is determined that there is a change in an item that needs to be displayed in the list, the user is notified of the fact that there is a change in the displayed list of items by, for example, stopping the slide display or performing highlighted display.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus which is capable of reducing time and effort for a user in setting a size of an irregular-size sheet. Width information indicative of a width of a sheet set by the user is stored in a storage unit. A width of the sheet held by a sheet holding unit that holds the sheet is detected. From the width information stored in the storage unit, candidates for a size of the sheet are extracted based on the detected width of the sheet. The extracted candidates for a size of the sheet are displayed on a display. A size of the sheet selected by the user from among the displayed candidates for a size of the sheet is set as a size of the sheet held by the sheet holding unit.
