Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to, for example, when image processing is performed on an image registered in a digital album, the edited contents before and after the editing result is stored. The present invention relates to an image re-editing processing system using a computer which can easily correct the image and re-edit the original image again. 2. Description of the Related Art Digital image editing with general image editing software (retouching software) performs image processing on a read image or an image registered in a digital album. Then, editing can be performed again by undo / redo. However, if the edited image is saved and the retouching software is terminated, the edited content before saving cannot be changed (see FIG. 3). [0003] Further, even if the original image to be edited is manually duplicated and saved before image editing, the image processing performed before saving the image saved after image editing can be any image processing. Since it is not known whether or not the processing has been performed, it is not possible to change the image editing contents of the duplicated image before saving the image saved after image editing. In view of such a problem, the present invention is configured to save an editing history, and further, the editing history is configured to be automatically saved when an editing image is saved. It is an object of the present invention to provide an image re-editing processing system using a revolutionary computer that can easily correct the contents of the history. In addition, the present invention further provides an innovative computer in which an original image registered automatically by correcting the editing history is automatically re-edited based on the correction (change) history. To provide an image re-editing processing system. The gist of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. When registering image data to be subjected to image editing processing by a computer, automatic two-image registration for registering an original image to be registered and an editing image which is the same as or copied from the original image. A mechanism for performing the image editing process on the editing image. When the image editing process is completed and the editing image is saved, the image is automatically edited as an editing history in the image editing.

The present invention relates to a computer-based image re-editing processing system having an automatic image re-editing processing mechanism . DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention (how to implement the invention) will be briefly described with reference to the drawings, showing the operation and effects thereof. For example, when registering image data in a digital album, two images are registered, that is, an image to be registered (original image) and an editing image in which the original image is copied (or reduced in size). . Image processing in image editing is performed only on the editing image. Image processing contents executed on the image editing screen are stored as an editing history.
The editing history can be deleted and the order of the editing items can be changed by the history editing mechanism in the editing screen. If the image is updated (saved) when the image editing process ends, the edited result (edit history) is automatically saved. When the editing result is changed later, the original image (specifically, the editing image newly copied and copied with respect to the original image) in the state at the time of image registration is changed by this change. Image processing is automatically performed again based on the history value, and a new editing image can be obtained. As a result, even after the image of the edited result is saved, the edited contents before the saving can be redone (deletion of the editing items, rearrangement of the order) (see FIGS. 1 and 2). The editing history is stored as data in which the types and parameters are listed in the order in which the image processing has been performed in, for example, image editing. The history editing mechanism is configured so that the editing history can be rearranged and deleted with a function of editing the editing history. A specific embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. When registering image data to be subjected to image editing processing with a personal computer, the original image to be registered and the editing image which is the same as the original image or a duplicate copy (including a reduced copy) of the original image are combined. The image editing process is performed on the editing image. When the image for editing is saved after completion of the image editing process, an automatic editing history saving mechanism for automatically saving the editing history is provided, and at least the contents of the editing history are deleted and the order of the items is deleted. A history editing mechanism that can be replaced is provided. Specifically, if the image is updated when the editing is completed, the editing result (editing history) is automatically saved by the automatic editing history saving mechanism. Further, when the history editing mechanism edits and corrects the content items of the editing history, the original image is automatically subjected to image editing processing based on the corrected editing history (specifically, the original image is copied). An automatic image re-editing mechanism is provided which can obtain an editing image again in place of the previous editing image (editing processing is performed on the copied new editing image). So that it is neither updated nor deleted.) Therefore, even after the image is saved after the image is edited, the original image can be re-edited.
Also, you may not like the editing contents of the image depending on the day (for example, when you edit the image for the first time, you think that a bright image is better, but when you look at it later, you may think that a dark image is better However, at that time, it is possible to automatically re-edit the original image simply by changing the stored history content. In addition, it is possible to omit only image processing that is determined to be unnecessary later, so that image processing can be easily performed. According to the present invention, since the present invention is configured as described above, the editing history is saved, and the editing history is automatically saved when an editing image is saved. With this configuration, the history can be easily modified by deleting at least the items or changing the order of the history, and an image re-editing processing system using an innovative computer can be easily re-edited. [0020] In addition, further to the original image, which had been automatically registered by modifying the edit history content is automatically re-editing process, innovative computer that can be done quickly is more easily appropriate re-edit Is an image re-editing processing system.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing a state after an image editing process according to the present embodiment is completed. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing an editing history change after the image editing process of the embodiment is completed. FIG. 3 is a schematic explanatory view of a conventional example.
