Abstract
A display processing apparatus includes a display, a display control unit, and a detection unit configured to determine an inputted position of the display. The display processing apparatus includes a processing performing unit configured to determine a selected designator and to perform the processing indicated by the selected designator. The display processing apparatus further includes a judging unit configured to judge whether or not the inputted position determined by the detection unit is included in a direction selecting portion of the display. When the judging unit judges that the inputted position determined by the detection unit is included in the direction selecting range of the display, the display control unit changes a display direction of the designator in such a way that the designator orients the direction selecting portion which is judged to include the inputted position.
