Abstract
Abstract A graphics processing system has an image memory for storing data of an image, a data memory for storing data of a vector graphic, a display unit (16) for displaying the data of the image and the data of the vector graphic, an input device (14,15) for providing an instruction to edit the vector graphic and the image, and a library in which a command (12,13) having a function for processing including an operation of the vector graphic and a command having a function for processing including an operation of the image are registered; in which the data of the image and the data of the vector graphic are displayed in a superimposed way, operated, and edited, and wherein a series of the processing for operating and editing the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image is performed through the command of the library (12, 13). <IMAGE>

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
139 words
A graphics processing system having an image memory for storing data of an image, a data memory for storing data of a vector graphic, a display unit (16) for displaying the data of the image and the data of the vector graphic, and an input device (14,15) for providing an instruction to edit the vector graphic and the image, wherein the data of the image and the data of the vector graphic are displayed in a superimposed way, operated, and edited, comprising: a library (12,13) in which a command having a function for processing including each of operations of the vector graphic and the image are registered; wherein a series of the processing for operating and editing the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image is performed through the command of the library (12, 13).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
75 words
A graphics processing system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said library has a basic command having a function of operating and editing the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image; and wherein a user's own command for operating and editing the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image can be registered in said library (12,13) as a sequence of commands formed by combining said basic commands.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
104 words
A graphics processing system as claimed in claim 2, wherein said library (12, 13) further has a macro language library (13) in which a function is registered which has a function for setting information on the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image and a function for inquiring there-about is registered; and wherein a user's own command for operating and editing the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image through a sequence of commands in a combination of said basic command with the function of the macro language library (13) can be registered in said library.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
105 words
A graphics processing system as claimed in claim 3, wherein said library (13) further has a high-level language interface library in which a function of a functional program for operating and editing the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image is registered; wherein a processing function containing both of a function for processing the data of the vector graphic and a function for processing the data of the image is configured as a program in which the functions of the high-level language interface library (13) are combined; and wherein the program is registered in said library as a user's own command.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
179 words
A graphics processing system having an image memory for storing data of an image, a data memory for storing data of a vector graphic, a display unit (16) for displaying the data of the image and the data of the vector graphic, and an input device (14, 15) for providing an instruction to edit the vector graphic and the image, wherein the data of the image and the data of the vector graphic are displayed in a superimposed way, operated, and edited, comprising: a library (12) in which a basic command for operating and editing each of the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image is registered; wherein a combination of a plurality of the basic commands within the library is registered as a sequence of commands for performing the processing for treating the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image simultaneously; and wherein both of the data of the vector graphic and the data of the image are processed in a combined way through the sequence of the commands registered.
