Abstract:
A present image forming apparatus includes a first control unit that controls a native program, a second control unit that controls an extension application different from the native program, a first memory area in which an operation screen of the native program controlled by the first control unit is rendered, and a second memory area in which an operation screen of the extension application controlled by the second control unit is rendered. At least a part of the operation screen of the native program is output to a display when an event related to outputting of the operation screen of the native program has occurred while the display is displaying a screen rendered in the first memory area.
