1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a control unit configured to perform a process corresponding to dragging and displaying, on a display screen, a cursor which changes shape by elastically elongates between a first point related to a start point of the dragging and a second point related to an end point of the dragging and of which at least one of a size and a shape is different at one end portion if the elastically elongated cursor, which is on a side of the start point of the dragging, as compared to a size or a shape at the other end portion of the elastically elongated cursor, which is on a side of the end point of the dragging, when the dragging is executed through an operation unit,wherein the control unit is further configured to control the displaying, on the display screen, of the elastically elongated cursor whose width varies from the one end portion to the other end portion,wherein the shape of the cursor is changed by the dragging to be elongated to fill a space on the display screen spanning between the first point and the second point, andwherein the control unit is implemented via at least one processor.

13. A display control method comprising:
-
performing a process corresponding to dragging and displaying, on a display screen, a cursor which changes shape by elastically elongates between a first point related to a start point of the dragging and a second point related to an end point of the dragging and of which at least one of a size and a shape is different at one end portion of the elastically elongated cursor, which is on a side of the start point of the dragging, as compared to a size or a shape at the other end portion of the elastically elongated cursor, which is on a side of the end point of the dragging, when the dragging is executed through an operation unit; and displaying the elastically elongated cursor of which width varies from the one end portion to the other end portion, wherein the shape of the cursor is changed by the dragging to be elongated to fill a space on the display screen spanning between the first point and the second point.

14. A non-transitory computer readable medium having embodied thereon a display control program, which when executed by a computer causes the computer to execute a method, the method comprising:
-
performing a process corresponding to dragging and displaying, on a display screen, a cursor which changes shape by elastically elongates between a first point related to a start point of the dragging and a second point related to an end point of the dragging and of which at least one of a size and a shape is different at one end portion of the elastically elongated cursor, which is on a side of the start point of the dragging, as compared to a size or a shape at the other end portion of the elastically elongated cursor, which is on a side of the end point of the dragging, when be dragging is executed through an operation unit; and displaying the elastically elongated cursor of which width varies from the one end portion to the other end portion, wherein the shape of the cursor is changed by the dragging to be elongated to fill a space on the display screen spanning between the first point and the second point.
