- control unit 17 When the control unit 17 receives the effective range information from the touch panel 12 (step 304), the control unit 17 recognizes the second effective range based on the first effective range (step 305). And the control part 17 specifies the area
- step 306 If the result of determination in step 306 is that even a part of the second effective range is outside the item, the user recognizes that the item has not been selected, does not perform any processing, and returns to step 301.
- Example 1 to Example 3 in 1st Embodiment to the setting method of the high effective range and low effective range in this embodiment.
- the control unit 17 has been described in the case where the second effective range is set in accordance with an instruction as to whether to use a function that requires an accurate input operation.
- the second effective range may be set depending on whether or not the content displayed on the display unit 15 is content that requires an accurate input operation.
- the present invention is not limited to an electronic device or an information processing method, and may be a program for causing a computer to execute the information processing method of the above-described embodiment, and a recording in which the program is recorded in a computer-readable manner. It may be a medium.
