US Patent 7725823 Information processing apparatus capable of displaying scheduler

In an information processing apparatus, even when a large volume of data is displayed in a limited display area in which the number of data items that can be displayed at once is restricted, rough searching for data and specific identification of data are facilitated. In the information processing apparatus, the number of data items to be displayed is determined. When the number of data items to be displayed is less than or equal to a predetermined number of data items that can be displayed in a display area, the data items are displayed in a first mode. If the number of data items to be displayed is greater than the predetermined number, the data items are displayed in a second mode.
