First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a touch panel having a contact surface that can come into contact with an operating body and capable of acquiring position information indicating a contact position on the contact surface with the operating body and displaying information;
a contact state quantity acquisition unit that acquires a contact state quantity indicating a contact state of the touch panel with the operating body, wherein the contact state quantity acquisition unit comprises a contact time measuring unit that measures a contact time indicating a time in which the operating body continues to be in contact with a substantially identical position of the touch panel up to a present time and acquires the contact time as the contact state quantity; and
a display control unit that controls the touch panel to display, in a slider bar region, a slider bar having a current position indicator which indicates a current playback position in a content, the current position indicator being repositionable along the slider bar based on the acquired position information,wherein when the contact time measured by the contact time measuring unit of the contact by the operating body on the contact surface of the touch panel at the position where the slider is displayed exceeds a threshold time amount, the display control unit controls the touch panel to replace the slider bar with a zoomed slider bar.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus is provided which include a display control unit that causes a touch panel to display a slider to specify one of specifiable values by an operating body as a specified value and a start edge value and an end edge value stored in a storage unit and if the touch panel acquires position information indicating position on the slider, decides a value corresponding to the position information as the specified value and also decides an interval to decide a new specifiable range in accordance with a contact state quantity acquired by the contact state quantity acquisition unit, specifies the new specifiable range based on the interval using the specified value as a reference.
