Abstract

Support information or related information regarding an input operation target is explicitly displayed when the proximity is detected before a user selects and fixes an input operation target, so as to support a user's accurate input operation, thereby improving operability. A portable terminal includes a proximity detection unit that detects a proximity of the finger to a screen, and a key image combining unit that displays enlarged images of an item displayed at a proximity correspondence position on the screen and all items adjacent to the item at the proximity correspondence position which is a position on the screen corresponding to proximity coordinates of the finger of which the proximity is detected, or in a vicinity of the proximity correspondence position, as related information or support information regarding the item displayed at the proximity correspondence position on the screen.
