Abstract: A limited display area can be effectively used for character display. According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus includes a derivation unit configured to derive a length by which a position of a head character laid out at a beginning of a line or column of characters displayed in a display area of a display unit can be changed within a range in which a letter form of the head character does not exceed the display area, and an adjustment unit configured to adjust the layout position of the head character and that of a character subsequent to the head character based on the length.

Abstract: When a touch panel is operated and erroneous processing has been performed, the probability of the same operation error next time is reduced. For this purpose, when a touch to the touch panel is detected, one of respective items in a menu, which the touch position belongs to is determined. Then processing regarding the determined item is performed. At this time, when a designation input indicating that the selection of the item corresponding to the executed processing was not intended by the operator has been made, to narrow a decision area to decide selection of the item, information indicating the decision area is updated.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus and its control method receives a drawing command including a moving image drawing command and a graphics drawing command and performs drawing processing. A drawing command is received, and the moving image drawing command is separated from the graphics drawing command. A graphics drawing unit obtains the result of graphics drawing in accordance with the graphics drawing command. A moving image drawing unit generates moving image data processed in accordance with the moving image drawing command. A composition unit composes the result of graphics drawing by the graphics drawing unit with the moving image data generated by the moving image drawing unit.

Abstract: The information processing apparatus identifies whether a state of a pointer which is close to the display screen is in a hover state or in a touch state. According to the duration pointed by the pointer which is in the hover state, the information processing apparatus sets the priority to each item. When the state of the pointer changes from the hover state to the touch state, the information processing apparatus specifies the item touched by the pointer from the plurality of items according to the touch position and the priority.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus renders a stroke formed by paths. A first obtaining unit obtains shape information representing a shape of a path, a second obtaining unit obtains end-point information representing a modification method for an end point, and a third obtaining unit obtains line-width information representing a line-width of the stroke. A generation unit generates stencil data of the stroke based on the shape, the line-width, and the end-point information. The generation unit includes a first generator to generate basic stencil data by fattening the path represented by the shape information based on the line-width information, and a second generator to generate end-point stencil data based on the end-point information. The generation unit merges the end-point stencil data into the basic stencil data in generating the stencil data. The end-point information represents one of a butt, a square, and a round as the modification method for the end point.
