DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a method of notification of displayed content for notifying the displayed contents of for example image display apparatuses connected to each other via communication lines mutually among these image display apparatuses and to an apparatus for the same.
BACKGROUND ART
Networks in which a plurality of terminals such as personal computers are connected via communication lines such as telephone lines etc. and data is transmitted to and received from each other are being actively utilized.
In the above networks, for example, it is difficult for a certain user to inform the contents of the image currently being displayed on his own terminal to another user. Even if it is assumed that the image is included in a manual of the terminal, this is very troublesome, for example, the page on which the image is carried in the manual must be informed to the other party.
Further, in the case where for example a certain user is informing another user of a method of inputting data when using a specified software, there are sometimes cases where it is desirable that a common image be displayed at a plurality of terminals.
There is existing communication software suitable for such use, but where the existing software is used, there arises a problem that the time required for the transmission of the data between the terminals becomes long, a high speed communication line becomes necessary, etc. due to the fact that all of the data of the image must be transmitted each of the plurality of terminals etc.
The present invention was made in consideration with the above-mentioned problems of the related art and has as an object thereof to provide a method of notification of display content among a plurality of terminals with which the content of an image displayed on a certain terminal can be accurately notified to another terminal and an apparatus for the same.
Further, the present invention has as its object to provide a method of notification of display content with which, even in a case where a common image is to be displayed on a plurality of terminals connected to a network, the time required for the transmission of the data is short and in addition a high speed communication line is not required and an apparatus for the same.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
The method of notification of display content according to the present invention is a method of notification of display content for notifying the display content of a predetermined screen of an image display apparatus to another party communicated with, wherein: a predetermined reference numeral is attached to each of a plurality of images to be displayed on the predetermined screen; at least one image among the plurality of images and the reference numerals individually attached to these images is displayed on the predetermined screen of the image display apparatus; and at least one reference numeral among those of the plurality of images is notified to the other party communicated with.
Preferably, the other party communicated with stores the data of the plurality of images and the reference numerals in advance into correspondence with each other and displays at least one image among the plurality of images individually corresponding to the notified reference numerals on a predetermined screen of a monitor screen.
Preferably, the other party communicated with sequentially stores the notified reference numerals and displays the images corresponding to the stored reference numerals on a predetermined screen of a monitor screen along with the elapse of time in accordance with an outside operation.
Further, the display content notifying apparatus according to the present invention is a display content notifying apparatus for mutually notifying the contents of images respectively displayed by a plurality of image display apparatuses between these plurality of image display apparatuses connected to each other via predetermined communication lines, wherein each of the plurality of image display apparatuses has a monitor means;
