Touch panel input item correction in accordance with angle of deviation

A method for an information processing device receiving user selections inputted using a touch panel, the method comprising the steps of:

• acquiring a touch point on the touch panel touched by the user;
• placing, in an area surrounding a display reference point on a screen, a display of a plurality of input items capable of being inputted by the user by moving the touch point;
• detecting a direction of movement by the touch point from an initial touch point of the user and a second touch point of the user, wherein the direction of movement comprises a line directed from the initial touch point to the second touch point;
• calculating an angle of deviation between the direction of movement of the touch point by the user and a standard direction associated with a first input item of the plurality of input items, wherein the standard direction comprises a line intersecting the display reference point and bisecting the first input item;
• and
• correcting the placement of the display of the plurality of input items in accordance with the angle of deviation.
