Abstract

Provided are a display control apparatus, a display control method, and a program that enable developers to implement application programs without needing to be aware of a safe area. An image acquisition section (42) acquires an image that is drawn in a frame buffer by an application program. A safe area setting specification section (44) specifies the setting of a safe area in a display section. An image generation section (48) generates a display target image including, as a part, the image sized according to the setting of the safe area. A display control section (50) causes the display section to display the display target image.
