#Configuration of Information Processing Apparatus

#A functional configuration of an information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment is described. FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating the functional configuration of the information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus 10 enables, through a touch operation, various manipulations including designation of the range selection of an object displayed on a screen. As the information processing apparatus 10, for example, in addition to mobile terminals such as smartphones and personal digital assistants (PDA), a personal computer and a tablet terminal with a touch panel may also be adopted. Incidentally, the present embodiment is described based on a presumption that the information processing apparatus 10 is a smartphone.
