Abstract
An information processing device displays in a display area a key image indicating an associated key to which a process is allocated as a soft key. In the information processing device, a key to which a process is allocated can be changed. The information processing device changes what is displayed based on the display mode. For example, if processes are allocated to a key, the information processing device displays an associated key image. If the user desires to change the orientation of the device, the key and associated key image and allocated process can be changed.
