Abstract
A method of controlling selection of information on a display is provided. The method includes displaying the information on the display and displaying a selection indicator associated with a selection including a part of the information, and detecting an input to adjust an amount of the information included in the selection. In response to detecting the input, he selection indicator is adjusted based on the input. A determination is made whether the amount of the information included in the selection exceeds a threshold limit. In response to determining that the amount of the information included in the selection exceeds the threshold limit, the selection is displayed as a split selection by displaying a beginning part of the selection and an end part of the selection without displaying a middle part of the selection between the beginning part and the end part, and displaying a split indicator. In response to determining that the amount of the information included in the selection is within the threshold limit, display of the information included in the selection is continued.
