Abstract
According to one embodiment, an display processing apparatus includes an operation receiver, a relation calculator, a display information generator, a display controller, and a scrolling module. The operation receiver receives selection of a key content. The relation calculator calculates relation between the key content and each of second contents. The display information generator generates first display information of the key content and second display information of the second contents. The display controller displays list information in which pieces of the second display information are arranged to form concentric polygons around the first display information along directions of operation such that second display information of second content with higher relation is closer to the first display information. The scrolling module scrolls, in response to user operation, the list information. The display controller maintains the first display information in the display range.
