Abstract

An information processing apparatus that is capable of finding out a desired content in a short time. A display control unit scrolls and displays at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction. A storing unit stores a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and display the contents in the predetermined direction among the contents. The display control unit makes a displaying part of the start-time content become larger than a displaying part of the other contents when the start-time content is displayed again because a moving direction of the contents is reversed.

Claims (30)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a memory configured to store instructions;

a processor configured to execute the instructions to provide a display control unit configured to scroll and display at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction; and

a storage configured to store, at a start of a content-scrolling operation, a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and, at a reversing of a direction of the content-scrolling operation, a reverse-time content displayed at a time of reversing the direction of the content-scrolling operation,

wherein the display control unit is configured to display a larger part of the start-time content and the reverse-time content than the displayed parts of other contents when the start-time content and the reverse-time content is displayed again irrespective of whether the direction of the content-scrolling operation is reversed again when the start-time content or reverse-time content is displayed.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit is configured to increase the displayed part of the other contents with passage of time when the contents are moved in the predetermined direction.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit is configured to display the start-time content in a state that is visually different from a state of the other contents.

4. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a memory configured to store instructions;

a processor configured to execute the instructions to provide a display control unit configured to scroll and display at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction; and

a storage configured to store, at a start of a content-scrolling operation, a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and, at a reversing of a direction of the content-scrolling operation, a reverse-time content displayed at a time of reversing the direction of the content-scrolling operation,

wherein the display control unit is configured to display the start-time content and the reverse-time content at a moving speed slower than a moving speed of other contents when the start-time content and the reverse-time content is displayed again irrespective of whether the direction of the content-scrolling operation is reversed again when the start-time content or reverse-time content is displayed.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the display control unit is configured to decrease the moving speed of the other than contents with passage of time when the contents are moved in the predetermined direction.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the display control unit is configured to display the start-time content in a state that is visually different from a state of the other contents.

7. A control method for an image processing apparatus, the control method comprising:

scrolling and displaying at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction; and

storing, at a start of a content-scrolling operation, a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and, at a reversing of a direction of the content-scrolling operation, a reverse-time content displayed at a time of reversing the direction of the content-scrolling operation,

wherein, in the scrolling and displaying, a displayed part of the start-time content and the reverse-time content is larger than a displayed part of other contents when the start-time content and the reverse-time content is displayed again irrespective of whether the direction of the content-scrolling operation is reversed again when the start-time content or reverse-time content is displayed.

8. A control method for an image processing apparatus, the control method comprising:

scrolling and displaying at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction; and

storing, at a start of a content-scrolling operation, a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and, at a reversing of a direction of the content-scrolling operation, a reverse-time content displayed at a time of reversing the direction of the content-scrolling operation,

wherein, in the scrolling and displaying, a moving speed of the start-time content and the reverse-time content becomes slower than a moving speed of other contents when the start-time content and the reverse-time content is displayed again irrespective of whether the direction of the content-scrolling operation is reversed again when the start-time content or reverse-time content is displayed.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a control program causing a computer to execute a control method for an information processing apparatus, the control method comprising:

scrolling and displaying at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction; and

storing, at a start of a content-scrolling operation, a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and, at a reversing of a direction of the content-scrolling operation, a reverse-time content displayed at a time of reversing the direction of the content-scrolling operation,

wherein, in the scrolling and displaying, a displayed part of the start-time content and the reverse-time content is larger than a displayed part of other contents when the start-time content and the reverse-time content is displayed again irrespective of whether the direction of the content-scrolling operation is reversed again when the start-time content or reverse-time content is displayed.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a control program causing a computer to execute a control method for an information processing apparatus, the control method comprising:

scrolling and displaying at least parts of respective contents on a screen by moving the contents in a predetermined direction; and

storing, at a start of a content-scrolling operation, a start-time content displayed at a time of starting to scroll and, at a reversing of a direction of the content-scrolling operation, a reverse-time content displayed at a time of reversing the direction of the content-scrolling operation,

wherein, in the scrolling and displaying, a moving speed of the start-time content and the reverse-time content becomes slower than a moving speed of other contents when the start-time content and the reverse-time content is displayed again irrespective of whether the direction of the content-scrolling operation is reversed again when the start-time content or reverse-time content is displayed.
