Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily partially erase an image on a graphic display in the image editing system of the graphic display. CONSTITUTION:An image original in a memory 13 is displayed on a graphic display 12. While using a mouse device 11, coordinate information is read from the displayed image original and with the coordinate as a center point, the image on the graphic display 12 is partially erased. When the image is completely erased, the partially erased image original on the graphic display 12 is stored in the memory 13. By repeating the above-mentioned processing as needed, partial erase is executed.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a partial erasing method for an image editing system in a graphic display.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a display state on a graphic display by a partial erasing method of a conventional image editing system. As indicated by reference numeral 21 in FIG. 3, the image editing system displays the image original stored in the memory on the graphic display. Further, as shown by 22, when partial erasure is performed,
The area to be erased is specified by enclosing it with a rectangular frame using a mouse device. When the designation is completed, 23
As shown by, the image original with the designated area erased is displayed on the graphic display.

[0003]

In the above-described partial erasing method of the conventional image editing system, when it is desired to partially erase an image original, a rectangular area can be designated and erased. However, with the method of erasing rectangular areas, when erasing an image in a circle or erasing a complicated image part, it is necessary to repeatedly erase a very small rectangular area. There was a problem that the work could not be done efficiently in performing.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a partial erasing method of an image editing system which can efficiently erase a circle and erase a complicated image portion.

[0005]

A partial erasing method of an image editing system according to the present invention is designated by a memory for storing image originals, a graphic display for displaying the image originals stored in the memory, and a mouse device. Means for reading coordinate information of the graphic display, a selection function for selecting a shape and size to be erased, an erasing means for partially erasing an image original on the graphic display, and an image original on the graphic display By having a storage means for storing in the memory, it is possible to select the shape and size to be erased, and in the selected shape and size centered on the coordinate point of the coordinate information input from the mouse device. It is possible to erase and enter the mouse input from the mouse device. It makes it possible to perform erasing coordinate point information on the selected shape and size as the center, and is configured by enabling repeatedly erased by moving the coordinate point by moving the mouse device.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the partial erasing method of the image editing system of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, 11 is a mouse device, 12 is a graphic display, 13 is a memory, and 14 is a control device. The image original is stored in the memory 13 without being processed, and the image original is displayed on the graphic display 12.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be described.

First, an operator operates to select a shape and size for erasing.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of shapes and sizes that can be selected in this embodiment. After the erasing shape and size shown in FIG. 2 have been selected, the mouse device 11 is used to specify the position on the image document displayed on the graphic display 12 at which the erasing is desired. Then, the coordinate information is taken into the control device 14 from the mouse device 11. The image on the graphic display 12 is then erased in the selected shape and size, centered on the captured coordinates.

Therefore, every time the operator moves the mouse device 11, coordinate information is taken in and erased, and the information is continuously erased.

Then, when all the image portions desired by the operator have been erased, the image original on the graphic display 12 is stored in the memory 13,
The image original on the graphic display 12 and the image original on the memory 13 are equivalent images.

[0013]

As described above, the partial erasing method of the image editing system of the present invention can easily perform circle erasing, erasing a complicated image portion, and erasing a small image portion. This has the effect of significantly improving the efficiency of the erasing work in the work.
