Abstract
A mobile electronic apparatus comprises a display including a display area having a first edge and a second edge, an input unit including a detector, and at least one processor. The display displays a display screen on the display area. The detector detects an operation performed on the display area. The at least one processor places a mode change element adjacent to the first edge or the second edge of the display area, scales down the display screen in response to detection of a first operation performed on the mode change element, and displays the display screen, which is scaled down, as a scaled-down screen on a part of the display area. The at least one processor determines, in response to a user's input to the input unit, which one of the first edge and the second edge is to be adjacent to the mode change element.
