2. Description of the Related Art Conventional information processing devices such as a Japanese word processor and a personal computer are capable of inputting with a pen and touching the screen. In addition to this, a tablet capable of detecting the writing pressure as well. The device is ready. By utilizing this characteristic of pen pressure detection, it is possible to freely change the thickness of the curve, and it is possible to easily change the line width when inputting characters and figures. Not only is the writing style approaching, but it is also possible for the user to perform desired work without setting a troublesome mode.

However, it is necessary to switch the mode (for example, to set the enlargement mode in the function) before the work such as reduction and enlargement of the graphic frame. Also, how much pen pressure you are inputting is only known when you personalize the pen pressure, and it is difficult to understand what it is like during actual input. was there.

In JP-A-5-282094 (published on October 29, 1993) and JP-A-6-139002 (published on May 20, 1994), the pen pressure with a pen is detected,
It has been disclosed that the width of a line of a figure or the size of a point is changed according to this pressure to be displayed on a display device, or the same effect can be obtained in inputting a character or an image. In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-19539 (July 1, 1992)
(Published on 5th), a light emitting display unit is provided to notify the state of the writing pressure, and what is expressed by light and shade of light is disclosed. However, it is still difficult to see the writing pressure status while the user operates it. It had the drawback of being bad.

Further, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-119415 (May 1991)
In the release on the 21st of March, only the shape of the figure itself is reduced or enlarged, but the concept of a frame (image frame, graphic frame,
Character frames, etc.) are not used to reduce or enlarge. That is, the shape of the figure itself is reduced and enlarged, and there is a drawback that it is not possible to reduce or enlarge the entire frame such as an image frame and a character frame.

As described above, according to the prior art, when an editing operation or a pattern input operation is performed using a pen or the like in an input tablet capable of detecting writing pressure, how much writing pressure is currently used is input. There is a case where the user does not know how much he / she is inputting with a desired operation, and the operability was poor.Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to display the writing pressure input by the user as a writing pressure state on the screen. By displaying, it is possible to visually confirm how much writing pressure is being input. This not only improves operability, but also shortens editing and input time.

Further, an object of the present invention is to provide an input tablet capable of detecting a writing pressure, when displaying items such as strong / normal / weak depending on the degree of the writing pressure in the writing pressure state display,
If this item had the same display for all functions, the operability would be poor, so it is easier to understand by displaying the line in the figure as strong / normal / weak when inputting it as thick / normal / thin It was done. By doing so, the operability is improved and the editing time is shortened.

A further object of the present invention is to notify the writing pressure state by changing the color of the tablet capable of detecting the writing pressure to make the display of the writing pressure state easier to see. This improves operability and visibility.

Further, it is an object of the present invention to inform the writing pressure state by sound in addition to the writing pressure state display by color. This improves operability and visibility.

Further, if the display screen of the writing pressure state is displayed at a fixed position, it may be easier for some people to view the display screen at the bottom of the screen in consideration of the user's habit. The purpose of is that the user can specify that the display screen in the writing pressure state is displayed at an arbitrary position, and the display method can be changed. This can improve operability and reduce time.

Furthermore, in the tablet which can sense the writing pressure of the present invention, some users may push with a pen or the like beyond the limit pressure of the tablet, which may damage the tablet. An object of the invention is to stop the processing when a pressure higher than the limit pressure of the tablet is applied, and to display, for example, "pressing strongly" on the screen. This makes it possible to prevent damage to the tablet and scratches on the surface.

Further, an object of the present invention is to display an indicator showing the state of the writing pressure and allow the user to change any display content when changing the display content.

This improves the operability.

Furthermore, when enlarging or reducing a frame such as a conventional character frame, it is necessary to enter a mode for enlarging or reducing the mode and set it by a function or the like. The purpose is to specify a figure frame, character frame, image frame, etc., and press strongly to enlarge the frame and weakly to reduce the frame.

As a result, the operability is improved and the editing time is shortened.

Further, in the case of performing the enlargement / reduction as described above, there is a problem that the size of the frame is not determined because the frame is reduced when the writing pressure is reduced and the writing pressure is reduced. Then, this frame deciding method is decided, that is, the size of the frame is decided after a lapse of a fixed time with an arbitrary fixed writing pressure. This improves operability.

Further, as described above, another method of determining the size of the frame is provided, that is, the size of the frame is determined when a certain amount of drag or more occurs. is there. This improves operability.

Furthermore, in a function of editing a frame such as a character frame in a peep window that allows a part of the entire screen to be magnified and viewed, it is necessary to move the peek window to move the frame. Specify the inner frame with a pen and move it. However, in order to move the display contents to other parts, it is necessary to move the screen by pressing the cursor button or screen movement, which makes the operation difficult. Therefore, in the present invention,
The pen pressure is used to specify the frame in the window, and only the frame in the window moves if the pressure is less than an arbitrary pressure, but the display content in the window also moves when the pressure is higher than the arbitrary pressure. This improves operability and shortens editing time.
