COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM STORED THEREIN, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage medium having stored therein an information processing program executed by a computer of an information processing apparatus which includes a display area having a scroll image display region for displaying a scroll target image, the information processing program causing the computer to operate as:
- pointed position detector configured to sequentially detect a pointed position on the display area by a user;
first scroll instruction determination section configured to determine whether or not the pointed position detected by the pointed position detector has shifted in a first direction;
second scroll instruction determination section configured to determine whether or not the pointed position detected by the pointed position detector has shifted in a direction different from the first direction; and
scrolling controller configured to scroll the scroll target image in the first direction when at least either one of results of the determinations of the first scroll instruction determination section and the second scroll instruction determination section is positive.

Abstract
An exemplary display area includes a scroll image display region for displaying a scroll target image. When at least either one of a result of a determination as to whether or not a touch position on the display area by a user has shifted in a first direction (scrolling direction) or a result of a determination as to whether or not the touch position on the display area by the user has shifted in a direction different from the first direction, is positive, the scroll target image displayed in the scroll image display region is scrolled and displayed in the first direction.

13. An information processing method used in an information processing apparatus which includes a display area having a scroll image display region for displaying a scroll target image, the information processing method comprising the steps of:
-
sequentially detecting a pointed position on the display area by a user; determining whether or not whether or not the pointed position detected by the pointed position detecting step has shifted in a first direction; determining whether or not the pointed position detected by the pointed position detecting step has shifted in a direction different from the first direction; and scrolling the scroll target image in the first direction when at least either one of results of the determinations by the determining steps is positive.
