## Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, in response to dividing an area of a display surface of a deformable display into multiple areas with a folded portion located as a boundary between the multiple areas as a result of deformation of the deformable display, decide layout of multiple images to be displayed in the area of the display surface. The layout is decided on a basis of information regarding each of the multiple images.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An information processing apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to
in response to dividing an area of a display surface of a deformable display into a plurality of areas with a folded portion located as a boundary between the plurality of areas as a result of deformation of the deformable display, decide layout of a plurality of images to be displayed in the area of the display surface, the layout being decided on a basis of information regarding each of the plurality of images.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1,
wherein the processor is configured to
assign an area extending horizontally in the area of the display surface to an image having a screen ratio of landscape and having priority higher than priority of one or more remaining images among the plurality of images and respectively assign one or more remaining areas in the area of the display surface to the one or more remaining images in priority order.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1,
wherein the processor is configured to
assign an area extending vertically in the area of the display surface to an image having a screen ratio of portrait and having priority higher than priority of one or more remaining images among the plurality of images and respectively assign one or more remaining areas in the area of the display surface to the one or more remaining images in priority order.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 2,
wherein the priority of each image is based on a user setting.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 3,
wherein the priority of each image is based on a user setting.

### Claim 6 (depends on 2)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 2,
wherein priority of a moving image, a still image, and a document is set higher than priority of a memo, an operator, and a widget.

### Claim 7 (depends on 3)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 3,
wherein priority of a moving image, a still image, and a document is set higher than priority of a memo, an operator, and a widget.

### Claim 8 (depends on 2)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 2,
wherein the priority of each image is decided on a basis of an amount of data of the image.

### Claim 9 (depends on 3)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 3,
wherein the priority of each image is decided on a basis of an amount of data of the image.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1,
wherein the processor is configured to
decide assignment of an area for an image having a plurality of pages among the plurality of images in the area of the display surface, the assignment being decided on a basis of a direction of scrolling to change a page.

### Claim 11

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
in response to dividing an area of a display surface of a deformable display into a plurality of areas with a folded portion located as a boundary between the plurality of areas as a result of deformation of the deformable display, deciding layout of a plurality of images to be displayed in the area of the display surface, the layout being decided on a basis of information regarding each of the plurality of images.

### Claim 12

An information processing apparatus comprising:
means for, in response to dividing an area of a display surface of a deformable display into a plurality of areas with a folded portion located as a boundary between the plurality of areas as a result of deformation of the deformable display, deciding layout of a plurality of images to be displayed in the area of the display surface, the layout being decided on a basis of information regarding each of the plurality of images.
