Picture editing for electronic copying machine

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To register plural graphics corresponding to a designated area with only continuously inputting the coordinate of points by comparing the coordinate of a start point and that of a point inputted last among inputted plural points and specifying an area surrounded by the coordinate of plural points which have been inputted till then as the area for editing an original. CONSTITUTION:For inputting plural graphics, the coordinate of the inputted point is compared with that of the start point of respective graphics. If the inputted point is near the start point, the input of the graphic corresponding to one designated area is judged to be finished, and the graphic is automatically registered, whereby a system shifts to the input of the next graphic. Consequently, a user does not need to register and operate the graphic at every graphic. If the points are inputted continuously, plural graphics are automatically registered. Thus, the operation at the time of inputting plural graphics is simplified and plural graphics can be easily inputted. Furthermore, operational errors can be reduced.
