Here, will show as the function portion of control part 11 according to the function that operation control is carried out by control part 11 with program.The control part 11 of present embodiment possesses each function portion of thumbnail row control part 11a and operation detection part 11c as the function of carrying out with program by operation control.Operation detection part 11c is for the setting of the operation condition that carries out digital camera 1 etc., and detects the function portion at user's operation of user's indication that is presented at the GUI picture on the display part 18 and push-botton operation portion 13.And, in the digital camera 1 of present embodiment, have and the display part 18 overlapping touch panels that set 14 that show the GUI picture as operating portion.This touch panel 14 be transfused to comprise at the track input on the picture of display part 18 etc. interior, show the relevant indication of thumbnail row of expectation with making display part 18.Then, operation detection part 11c carries out the detection action at user's indication of GUI picture by detecting the user's operation at this touch panel 14.In addition, touch panel 14 uses the touch panel based on the multi-point touch (multi touch) of user's finger manipulation and the type can gesture (gesture) imported, yet also can be the touch panel of an input mode etc.
And thumbnail row control part 11a is used for basis is operated the various control and treatment described later that generation is controlled with demonstration, also execution is relevant with this GUI picture of indicating the thumbnail row that use thumbnail image at the user of the GUI picture of display part 18 function portion.That is, thumbnail row control part 11a carries out such control: according to by user's indicated pattern on touch panel 14, arrange thumbnail image and generate the thumbnail row of copying this pattern, the thumbnail row that generated are presented on the display part 18.Here, " pattern " is such meaning: be basic with the character but be not limited to character, comprise the shape self of the input trajectory of the pattern-like that does not form the figure described by user's operation and character main body.
Next, action one example of digital camera 1 is described, i.e. the operation of GUI picture that is undertaken by thumbnail row control part 11a etc. in the thumbnail column-generation pattern in the reproduction mode etc. and the summary of control.Fig. 2 is the key diagram that schematically shows the basic operation example of the GUI picture in the thumbnail column-generation pattern.At first, when having selected thumbnail column-generation pattern, thumbnail row control part 11a is that the input form of character/image selects picture 30 to be presented on the display part 18 with the GUI picture of thumbnail column-generation pattern.Fig. 2 (a) illustrates the initial picture example of the input form selection picture 30 of the character/image in the thumbnail column-generation pattern.It is to be used to carry out the selection operation relevant with the character project and popup menu (the pop up menu) picture of the selection operation of being correlated with images of items that this input form is selected picture 30, for example, show " character selection " button 31 and " image selection " button 32 in the mode of freely selecting on picture top.
Fig. 2 (a) is illustrated in initial setting or supresses character input shown under the situation of " character selection " button 31 and select the input form of usefulness to select the demonstration example of picture 30.This input form selects picture 30 to show " LOVE ", " HAPPY ", " COOL ", " MERRY CHRISTMAS " (" love ", " happiness ", " cold ", " merry christmas ") etc. as predefined representative character template (word) in the mode of freely selecting.And this input form selects picture 30 also to show as " (truly) ", " automatically " (" (REAL) ", " (AUTO) ") based on the manually operated character input form of user (MANUAL: manual) in the mode of freely selecting.Here, " (truly) " is the character input form that the faithful to shape that is input to the track of picture by touch panel 14 generates the shape of thumbnail row.And, " (automatically) " is according to being input to the track of picture and analyzing the character suitable with track with reference to the character database of routine data storage part 12 by touch panel 14, the character of being analyzed being generated the character input form of thumbnail row as indicated pattern.
And Fig. 2 (b) is illustrated in display image shown under the situation of supressing " image selection " button 32 and selects the input form of usefulness to select the demonstration example of picture 30.This input form selects picture 30 to show " automatically ", " manually " in the mode of freely selecting.Here, " automatically " (image is selected automatically) is at a series of images that is stored in the image storage part 22, as the beginning thumbnail image, and need to select the thumbnail image of quantity to be used in the input form image of thumbnail row automatically the image (up-to-date image) of picture number maximum by number order.And " manually " (image is manually selected) is in a series of images in being stored in image storage part 22, selects to be used in the input form image of thumbnail row by the indicated thumbnail image of user and with it by utilizing described later piling up (stack).
Next, the generation of the thumbnail row that the input form of following the user is set and show example etc. is described.At first, Fig. 3 is illustrated schematically in as character input to select and selected Character mother plate " LOVE " and select and selected under the situation of " automatically " as display image, is generated the key diagram that thumbnail images shown also is listed as by thumbnail row control part 11a.In this case, thumbnail row control part 11a will generate the thumbnail row as by the indicated pattern of user by selected Character mother plate " LOVE " from a plurality of Character mother plates, it is presented on the display part 18.
Here, the image (up-to-date image) that is illustrated in picture number maximum in a series of images that is stored in the image storage part 22 is the example of the image of numbering " 85 ".Therefore, thumbnail row control part 11a will number the image of " 85 " as the beginning thumbnail image, (for example select successively for the thumbnail image of the required quantity of demonstration of Character mother plate " LOVE ", numbering " 21 " image before), selected thumbnail image is pressed the notes sequence arrangement on the character of " LOVE ", thereby generate the thumbnail row 33 of the character (pattern) of copying " LOVE ".At this moment, thumbnail row control part 11a arranges rather than complete matching with the sensation of a little disorder as shown in Figure 3 by the thumbnail image on the character that will be arranged in " LOVE ", generates the thumbnail row 33 that the nature sense is arranged thus.Certainly, thumbnail row control part 11a can the linear array thumbnail image.Like this, when utilizing Character mother plate, can from preprepared character, select the character of expectation, thereby the character appointment becomes simple.
And the size of the thumbnail row 33 that generated is suitably set according to picture dimension etc., and shown in Figure 3 with the example of two character settings for the size of the degree that can show on a picture.Then, thumbnail row 33 parts about once not showing can show by picture rolling.Picture rolling operation under this situation can be automatically, perhaps also can be based on manually operated operation.
Then, Fig. 4 is illustrated schematically in as character input to select and selected " manually " (character is manually imported) and select and selected under the situation of " automatically " (image is selected automatically) as display image, is generated the also key diagram of thumbnail images shown row 33 by thumbnail row control part 11a.At first, Fig. 4 (a) is illustrated under this input pattern, an example of the input trajectory of being described by user's operation on touch panel 14 34, the i.e. situation of " A " of distortion.
Here, be set under the situation of " truly " pattern as " manually " (character is manually imported), thumbnail row control part 11a generates the also thumbnail row 33 shown in the displayed map 4 (b).That is, thumbnail row control part 11a is not identified as character with input trajectory 34, and the shape of faithful to input trajectory 34 is distributed successively to thumbnail image, thereby generates the thumbnail row of arranging like that according to input trajectory 34 34.According to such " truly " pattern, the user is not limited to character by figure and the pattern of describing the user and liking, and can constitute the thumbnail row 34 according to the arrangement of this figure and pattern.
On the other hand, be set under the situation of " automatically " pattern as " manually " (character is manually imported), thumbnail row control part 11a generates the also thumbnail row 33 shown in the displayed map 4 (c).That is, thumbnail row control part 11a analyzes input trajectory 34 by the reference character database, and the character suitable with input trajectory 34 is defined as " A ", with determined this character " A " as indicated pattern.Then, thumbnail row control part 11a is replaced into formal character, for example " A " with input trajectory 34, and thumbnail image is distributed to the shape of this character successively, thereby generates the thumbnail row 34 of the arrangement of character display.According to such " automatically " pattern, the character that the writable input of user is liked oneself, thereby can simply carry out the character input.
Then, Fig. 5 is illustrated schematically in as character input to select and selected Character mother plate " LOVE " and select and selected under the situation of " manually " (image is manually selected) as display image, is generated the also key diagram of thumbnail images shown row 33 by thumbnail row control part 11a.At first, Fig. 5 (a) illustrates an example of the GUI picture 35 of this input pattern.In this GUI picture 35, show stack region (stack area) 36 and thumbnail row viewing area 37.
Stack region 36 is zones that image is selected usefulness, occupies near for example left end of display part 18.This stack region 36 is to set the beginning thumbnail image so that generate the zone of thumbnail row according to the thumbnail image of user expectation in a series of images that is recorded in the image storage part 22.Thumbnail row control part 11a shows that in this stack region 36 first icon, second that piles up 36a piles up the icon of (with reference to Fig. 5 (b)) 36b, sends icon 36c and return icon 36d.
First to pile up 36a and second icon that piles up 36b be that set that a series of images that will be recorded in the image storage part 22 forms playing card with the size of thumbnail image is divided into two places and under the state that piles up, and can only confirm to show under the state of image of upper.Thumbnail row control part 11a only shows that in stack region 36 first piles up 36a in the initial picture shown in Fig. 5 (a), show up-to-date picture number, the thumbnail image of " 200 " for example as the numbering of beginning thumbnail image.Send icon 36c and be and be used for first image that piles up the 36a side is transported to second handle icon of piling up the 36b side one by one.Second piles up 36b (dotted line) will pile up the zone that image that the 36a side carries is piled up successively from first.Return icon 36d is used for second image that piles up the 36b side is restored to first handle icon of piling up the 36a side one by one.
And, thumbnail row viewing area 37 be with the right side of stack region 36 in abutting connection with and occupy more than half zone of display part 18.Thumbnail row control part 11a shows the initial character " L " of selected Character mother plate " LOVE " with draft-form (dotted line) in this thumbnail row viewing area 37.And the right-hand member show scroll bars 37a of thumbnail row control part 11a in thumbnail row viewing area 37, this scroll bar 37a represent the current position summary that is presented at the thumbnail row on the picture in the thumbnail row integral body.
Then, in the initial picture shown in Fig. 5 (a), the user is by carrying out touch operation with finger to sending icon 36c, thumbnail image piled up 36a from first pile up 36b to second and move continuously one by one successively.Specifically, the user moves one by one successively according to the mode that is numbered 200 → 199 → 198... of thumbnail image.Follow this operation, shown in Fig. 5 (b), pile up second and to show thumbnail image in the 36b.Then, the numbering of the beginning thumbnail image that shows at second upper that piles up 36b gradually changes successively according to 200 → 199 → 198 mode.Fig. 5 (b) is illustrated in the situation that second upper that piles up 36b shows the beginning thumbnail image of numbering " 56 ".In addition, return icon 36d has been carried out under the situation of touch operation with finger the user, with above-mentioned opposite, thumbnail image piles up 36b from second and piles up 36a to first and return successively one by one.Then, the user leaves finger and sends icon 36c (perhaps return icon 36d), thereby will be defined as being used to generate the beginning thumbnail image of thumbnail row 33 at the second selected image of upper that piles up 36b.In addition, in addition, Fig. 5 (a) and dotted line (b) " L " can not show.
When having determined by user operation to the selection of beginning thumbnail image, thumbnail row control part 11a generate and displayed map 5 (c) shown in thumbnail row 33.Promptly, thumbnail row control part 11a with second pile up 36b numbering " 56 " image as the beginning thumbnail image, select successively Character mother plate " LOVE " the required quantity of demonstration thumbnail image (for example, numbering " 110 " image before), selected thumbnail image is pressed the notes sequence arrangement on the character of " LOVE ", thereby generate the thumbnail row 33 of the character (pattern) of copying " LOVE ".
In addition, as the thumbnail image that is used in the thumbnail row 33 that will generate, can distribute first to pile up the following thumbnail image of image of the numbering " 55 " of 36a.And,, under the situation that does not have the distribution diagram picture, can reuse identical image distributing second thumbnail image that piles up 36b (perhaps first piles up 36a) to generate under the situation of thumbnail row 33 successively.And, select the thumbnail image that will use not necessarily continuously successively, can only reuse the specific image that user for example likes.In addition, as mentioned above, under the situation of having selected " automatically " (image is selected automatically), the image (up-to-date image) of picture number maximum in a series of images that is stored in the image storage part 22 as the beginning thumbnail image, is selected the thumbnail image of required quantity to generate thumbnail automatically by number order and is listed as.In this case, can not carry out the demonstration that the image shown in Fig. 5 (a)~Fig. 5 (c) is selected usefulness.
In any case, according to the demonstration of the thumbnail row 33 of present embodiment, owing to show with thumbnail row 33 by the indicated patterns such as character of user, thereby compare with showing single character etc., impression strengthens.For example, when the demonstration with such thumbnail row 33 is used for showing continuously that the title of the slide demonstration of a series of images shows, can provide stronger impression.And, to compare with single arrangement thumbnail, message increases.Like this, the new purposes that thumbnail image shows can be proposed.
Next, the action control example that is used to realize to follow to the control part 11 of the demonstration control of above-mentioned user's operation of GUI picture etc. is described.Fig. 6 is the general flowchart that the operation control and treatment example of being carried out by the thumbnail row control part 11a of control part 11 etc. is shown.In the present embodiment, the operation control and treatment as object is by utilizing not shown setting to specify reproduction mode to carry out with the operation of button etc.
At first, control part 11 is judged the thumbnail column-generation pattern (step S11) that whether is set under reproduction mode.(step S11: not), control part 11 is carried out the processing (step S31) of other reproduction mode under the situation that is not set at thumbnail column-generation pattern.Then, control part 11 is judged in the processing of other reproduction mode the whether switching (step S32) of oriented thumbnail column-generation pattern, not have (step S32: not), next whether judgement has the shutoff operation (step S33) of mains switch under the situation about switching.(step S33: be) under the situation of shutoff operation, control part 11 end process are being arranged; (step S33: not), control part 11 is got back to the processing of step S31 under the situation of shutoff operation not having.
On the other hand, under the situation that is set at thumbnail column-generation pattern (step S11: be), and under the situation of the switching of oriented thumbnail column-generation pattern (step S32: be), control part 11 utilizes input form to select picture 30, makes the input form of display part 18 character display/image select picture 30 (step S12).This is equivalent to the demonstration example that input form shown in Figure 2 is selected picture 30.
Then, thumbnail row control part 11a judges in input form to select in the picture 30 whether the selection operation (step S13) relevant with the input form of character/image is arranged.(step S13: be) under the situation of selection operation arranged, thumbnail row control part 11a judges the character project (step S14) of whether having selected, under the situation of having selected the character project (step S14: be), set character input form (step S15) according to input.This is equivalent to the operational example in the input form selection picture 30 shown in Fig. 2 (a).
And, (step S14: not) under the situation of non-selected character project, thumbnail row control part 11a judges whether selected images of items (step S16), under the situation of having selected images of items (step S16: be), sets input form image (step S17) according to input.This is equivalent to the operational example in the input form selection picture 30 shown in Fig. 2 (b).In addition, thumbnail row control part 11a (step S16: not), transfer to step S18 under the situation of non-selected images of items.
Then, thumbnail row control part 11a judges input form selects whether the selection operation relevant with the input form of character/image finishes (step S18) in the picture 30, (step S18: not), get back to step S13 under unclosed situation.Under the situation that selection operation finishes (step S18: be), thumbnail row control part 11a judges that whether character is as template character selected (step S19).Non-selected be that (step S19: not), thumbnail row control part 11a waits for to retouching by user's hand and carries out character input (step S20: not) under the situation of template character.Under the situation of having carried out the character input (step S20: be), thumbnail row control part 11a judges whether be the setting (setting automatically) (step S21) of analyzing character automatically.Under the situation that is the setting of analysis automatically (step S21: be), thumbnail row control part 11a analyzes the character that hand is retouched with reference to the character database in the routine data storage part 12, determines to retouch the suitable character of track (step S22) with hand.This is equivalent to the processing example shown in Fig. 4 (c).(step S21: not), thumbnail row control part 11a does nothing and transfers to step S23 under the situation that is not the setting of analysis automatically.This is equivalent to the processing example shown in Fig. 4 (b).
Next, whether the input form of thumbnail row control part 11a process decision chart picture is that (automatically) sets (step S23) automatically.(step S23: not), thumbnail row control part 11a makes display part 18 show that GUI picture 35 shown in Figure 5 comes carries out image to select to handle (step S24) under the situation that is not automatic setting.
Here, the image of description of step S24 is selected to handle.Fig. 7 illustrates the subprogram that image is selected processing.At first, whether thumbnail row control part 11a judges by the user and has been undertaken sending operation (step S41) based on what send icon 36c.Carrying out sending under the situation of operation (step S41: be), thumbnail row control part 11a sets first and piles up the beginning picture number of 36a as picture number N (step S42).Then, thumbnail row control part 11a reads from image storage part 22 by reducing (decrement) 1 and reduces the image of one numbering N, and is presented at first position (step S43) of piling up 36a.Thumbnail row control part 11a carries out simultaneously the first beginning image that piles up among the 36a before reducing first is piled up 36a and piles up the animation process (step S44) that 36b moves in the animation mode towards second from this.Then, thumbnail row control part 11a judges whether send operation finishes (step S45).Sending (step S45: deny) under the unclosed situation of operation, the processing of thumbnail row control part 11a repeated execution of steps S43, S44.And, sending (step S45: be) under the situation of EO, thumbnail row control part 11a finishes this image and selects to handle.This is equivalent to the demonstration example shown in Fig. 5 (b).
