That is, in order to obtain the display image information as shown in FIG. 5A, in the line scroll parameter table of FIG. 5B, the drawing start of a plurality of continuous drawing line groups in the X-axis direction is started. The address is set to be the same, and the drawing start address in the X-axis direction of a plurality of continuous drawing line groups thereafter is set to another same address different from the above address value.

The setting of the address value in each of the above-mentioned specific examples may be manually changed by the parameter information changing means 7 or may be changed by software. It may be one that exists.

The specifics of the present invention described above may be executed individually or in combination.

A specific example of the circuit configuration of the line scroll means 5 according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

That is, in FIG. 7, at least one of the table start address value setting circuit 71 and the table repeat line number setting circuit 72 in the line scroll parameter table in the parameter information changing means 7 is selected by the CPU. When either one of the values is set, only the table start address value setting circuit 71 is selected and a predetermined address value (Y coordinate value) is set, the output is input to one input of the adder 30. At the same time, in response to a command from the drawing device 1, a destination Y coordinate value increment signal in predetermined display image information is output, and the adder 30 is added via the appropriate counter 31.
Is input to the other input of.

In the counter 31, the counter value is incremented by 1 every time the destination Y coordinate value increment signal is output.
When drawing the first line, the output value of the counter 31 is 0. Therefore, the output from the adder 30 is the start address value (Y coordinate value) itself, and the output value is Based on this, the X coordinate addition value in the start address value (Y coordinate value) stored in the line scroll parameter table 10 is selected, and the result is input to one input of the adder 32 and Drawing device 1
, The destination X coordinate value in the predetermined display image information is output and input to the other input of the adder 32.

As a result, the X coordinate values obtained by adding the above addition value to all the destination X coordinate values on the first line are output, and the X coordinate values are stored in the display data storing frame memory.

Next, when drawing the second line in the display image information, the output value of the counter 31 is 1, and therefore the output from the adder 30 is the start address value (Y An address value obtained by adding 1 to the coordinate value) is obtained, and the X coordinate addition value at the start address value (Y coordinate value) stored in the line scroll parameter table 10 is selected based on the output value. And the result is input to one input of the adder 32, and
In response to a command from the drawing device 1, the destination X coordinate value in the predetermined display image information is output and input to the other input of the adder 32.

Thereafter, the same operation is repeated and the display image information of a predetermined frame is stored in the display data storing frame memory.

On the other hand, in the present specific example, when a part of the line scroll parameter table as shown in FIG. 5 is repeatedly used, the table repeat line number setting circuit 72 sets a predetermined repeat count data, for example, 3 Is set, and its output is sent to the counter 31 through the comparator 33.

Each drawing start address up to the line is set to 1 to 4, and +5 is set as an offset value in the parameter information changing means separately.

When the sixth line is drawn, the offset value of 5 is added to the parameter 0 stored in the memory area of M1 in the M1 memory area in the line scroll parameter table. 5
Since the parameter value is obtained, the drawing start address when drawing the sixth line is 5.

Similarly, when the 7th line is drawn, the offset value of 5 is added to the parameter 1 stored in the memory area of M2 in the line scroll parameter table to obtain the parameter value of 6. The drawing start address when drawing the 7th line is 6.

When the eleventh line is drawn by repeating the above operation, the operation returns to the memory area of M1 in the line scroll parameter table again and the parameter 0 stored in the memory area of M1 is set to the previous value. Since the offset value of 5 is added to the offset value of 5 and +10 is added as an offset value, the drawing start address when drawing the 11th line is 10.

The output of the offset value setting circuit 36 is input to the other input of the adder 35 and simultaneously input to one input of the adder 32.

On the other hand, the output of the comparator 33 is input to the integrated offset value setting circuit 36, and the comparator outputs the repeat count data set in the table repeat line number setting circuit 72 and the count value of the counter. When they match, the output value is added with the offset value set by the offset value setting circuit 73 to the offset value set up to the previous time by the integrated offset value setting circuit 36, and the integrated offset is obtained. A value is formed and the result is input to the adder 32.

The adder 32, in the same manner as in the above-described specific example, provides predetermined display image information according to the X coordinate addition value selected from the line scroll parameter table 10 and a command from the drawing apparatus 1.
