In an information processing apparatus, in a case where between a timing when a user operation based on a first operation button is executed and a timing when a user operation based on a second operation button is executed, another user operation is executed on document data, a third operation button is added between the first and second operation buttons, and in a display area, a tab is displayed in a state where the third operation button is placed between the first and second operation buttons.

A display control apparatus includes a controller configured to control a display to display a standby screen including one or more display target tabs among a plurality of tabs displayable on the standby screen, the plurality of tabs including one or more shared tabs associated with a shared attribute and one or more personal tabs associated with a personal attribute, switch a user mode of the apparatus between a public mode and a personal mode, when the user mode is set to the public mode, display the one or more display target tabs including the one or more shared tabs, and when accepting user authentication information of a particular registered user, set the user mode to the personal mode for the particular registered user, and display the one or more display target tabs including the one or more shared tabs and a personal tab associated with the particular registered user.

An information processing apparatus includes: a processor configured to perform communication with another apparatus to receive a change in a function of processing data performed in the other apparatus; cause the change to be reflected in the function of the information processing apparatus; execute a process related to a first function of the information processing apparatus on first data in accordance with an instruction from a user, during a period in which communication with the other apparatus is not performed; and display information for specifying the first data in a case where a change in the first function is received from the other apparatus when communication with the other apparatus is performed after executing the process related to the first function on the first data.

A controller of an information processing apparatus divides a display region of a display into a main work region and a sub-work region. The controller determines whether a window to be newly displayed is to be arranged in the main work region or in the sub-work region. When the window is to be arranged in the main work region, the controller controls the window to be displayed within the main work region so that the window does not overlap with any other window. When the window is to be arranged in the sub-work region, the controller controls the window to be displayed within the sub-work region so that the window does not overlap with any other window.

A note-type personal computer according to the present invention has an LCD for displaying information stored in an internal storage provided therein, and an external storage or an external picture server connected thereto, via the internet. And, operation for the information stored in the respective storages is performed by the user in the same procedure using operation units such as a keyboard, a touch pad, with indication on the LCD confirmed. When the information stored in the picture server is displayed, the LCD displays auxiliary information indicative of this notice. The LCD displays the auxiliary information using a different folder name, or displays the auxiliary information on the background of a display area of the LCD. So, the user can confirm contents on the internet easily without the need of performing complicated operations.

A display control apparatus includes a controller configured to control a display to display a standby screen including one or more display target tabs among a plurality of tabs displayable on the standby screen, the plurality of tabs including one or more shared tabs associated with a shared attribute and one or more personal tabs associated with a personal attribute, switch a user mode of the apparatus between a public mode and a personal mode, when the user mode is set to the public mode, display the one or more display target tabs including the one or more shared tabs, and when accepting user authentication information of a particular registered user, set the user mode to the personal mode for the particular registered user, and display the one or more display target tabs including the one or more shared tabs and a personal tab associated with the particular registered user.

A display control apparatus includes a controller configured to control a display to display a standby screen including one or more display target tabs among a plurality of tabs displayable on the standby screen, the plurality of tabs including one or more shared tabs associated with a shared attribute and one or more personal tabs associated with a personal attribute, switch a user mode of the apparatus between a public mode and a personal mode, when the user mode is set to the public mode, display the one or more display target tabs including the one or more shared tabs, and when accepting user authentication information of a particular registered user, set the user mode to the personal mode for the particular registered user, and display the one or more display target tabs including the one or more shared tabs and a personal tab associated with the particular registered user.

An information processing system including an image forming apparatus and a portable terminal that is allowed to communicate with the image forming apparatus, includes a hardware processor that: determines whether a cooperative screen for cooperating with the image forming apparatus includes an operation-receiving region for receiving an operation by a user, the cooperative screen being displayed on a display of the portable terminal; extracts, from the cooperative screen, an image corresponding to an operating region including the operation-receiving region when the hardware processor determines that the cooperative screen includes the operation-receiving region; and displays, on a display of the image forming apparatus, the image corresponding to the operating region extracted by the hardware processor.

An input apparatus, that displays an editing screen including a keyboard on a display unit, includes a display control unit and a determination unit. The display control unit is configured to cause the display unit to display an input screen including at least an input item in which data is input via the keyboard thereon. The determination unit is configured to determine, based on the input item, that is a target in which data is input via the keyboard, whether a key for accepting an instruction to change the input item, that is a target in which data is input via the keyboard, to a next input item is to be displayed together with the keyboard on the display unit.

In a case where a plurality of operation buttons includes a first operation button for executing processing on one piece of page data included in document data, an information processing apparatus displays execution target page data of the first operation button in an identifiable manner.
