1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- an operation part; and
a display part to display an object selection image for selecting an object, whereinthe object selection image includes a position designation figure group including N (N is an integer of 3 or more) position designation figures which are arranged in a ring shape and to each of which one object of a plurality of objects can be assigned so that each of the position designation figures is either (i) an assigned position designation figure to which one of the objects is assigned or (ii) an unassigned position designation figure to which one of the objects is not assigned,when the operation part receives a specified rotation instruction operation, in the object selection image, the display part(i) rotates and moves the position designation figure group, together with any of the objects assigned to the position designation figures, along a circumferential direction of the ring by a rotation amount corresponding to the rotation instruction operation, and(ii) causes a specific position designation figure, which is one of the assigned position designation figures and is positioned at a specific position in the position designation figure group corresponding to a stationary region where the rotation instruction operation causes movement of the position designation figure group to stop the specific position designation figure, to be displayed to enable recognition that the object assigned to the specific position designation figure can be selected by an operation of the operation part,in the object selection image, the display part adjusts the rotation amount so that the unassigned position designation figure does not stop at the specific position and does not become the specific position designation figure, andthe number N of the position designation figures is unchanged when a previously unassigned one of the objects is assigned to one of the position designation figures.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes an operation part and a display part to display an object selection image. The object selection image includes a position designation figure group including N (N is an integer of 3 or more) position designation figures which are arranged in a ring shape and on each of which one object can be arranged. In the object selection image, the display part rotates and moves the position designation figure group, together with the arranged objects, along a circumferential direction of the ring, and causes a specific position designation figure in the position designation figure group to be displayed to enable recognition that the object arranged on the specific position designation figure can be selected by an operation of the operation part.
