[1. Embodiment]
[1-1. Overview]
(1) Outline of Functions of the Embodiment This embodiment provides a CAD (Computer Aided Design) function (hereinafter, "function of the embodiment") that supports creation and editing of drawings such as design drawings (hereinafter, "editing, etc."). Regarding the information processing device to have. Work such as editing includes a process of arranging a plurality of elements (drawing elements) in a layer (area) on the screen and specifying the value of the attribute item of each element. As an example, work such as editing includes a process of adjusting the arrangement position, size, arrangement angle, overlap with other elements, etc. of each element.

FIG. 1 shows the basic structure of a layer. The layer 100 is a rectangular plane whose size is defined by the width and height. The position (absolute position) in the layer 100 is specified by the coordinates of the xy plane with the lower left as the origin, the horizontal direction 110 as the x-axis, and the vertical direction 120 as the y-axis.

FIG. 2-1 shows the basic structure of the element. The element range 200 is a rectangle defined by a vertical width 211 and a horizontal width 212. The range 200 includes one element (drawing element). An element is, for example, at least a part (linear element) of a border of a point (dotted element), a line segment (linear element), or a closed figure (for example, a triangle, a quadrangle, another polygon, or a circle). ). Each element is inscribed in range 200.

In the range 200, any one of nine points 221 to 229 is set as an arrangement reference point. When the range 200 is tilted with respect to the reference direction 231 by the arrangement angle 232, the vertical direction 233 and the horizontal direction 234 are similarly tilted with respect to the reference direction 231. In the following description, the reference direction 231 is the lateral direction 110 of the layer 100 (FIG. 1).

FIG. 2-2 shows the main attribute items of the element. Each element has attribute items such as "vertical width (height)", "horizontal width", "arrangement reference point", "arrangement point (arrangement position)", and "arrangement angle". In addition to these, each element has an attribute item that characterizes the appearance of the element. As an example, a triangular element has a range when both ends of the base are on the line segment connecting points 221 and 223 and another point (vertex) is on the line segment connecting points 227 and 229. It has an attribute item indicating the positions (relative positions) of these three points at 200. As another example, the element of the parallelogram has a range of 200 when there are two points (vertices) on the line segment connecting the points 221 and 223 and on the line segment connecting the points 227 and 229, respectively. It has an attribute item indicating the positions (relative positions) of these four points in.

The elements on the layer 100 are arranged in a procedure in which the arrangement reference point is aligned with the arrangement point and the arrangement reference point is rotated about the arrangement reference point by the arrangement angle. Therefore, the position and range of the element arranged on the layer 100 can be specified by using the arrangement reference point, the arrangement point and the arrangement angle, and the value of the attribute item that characterizes the element.

(2) Simple measurement function In work such as editing, there is a need to easily display numerical values specific to one specific element (first numerical value) and numerical values related to two specific elements (second numerical value). obtain. Specific numerical values are, for example, the position of points, the position and size (length) of line segments, the size (length) of a specific side of a polygon, and the size (length) of a fan-shaped arc. ， The size (length) of the radius of the circle. The related numerical values are, for example, the distance between two points, the distance between a point and a line segment, the distance between two parallel line segments, and the size of the angle formed by two intersecting line segments (angle). ), The size (angle) of a specific internal angle of a polygon.

The function of the embodiment has a function of presenting a dimension value (dimension presenting function). In the dimension presentation function, when one element arranged in the layer 100 is designated by a predetermined operation, the dimension value of the designated element is temporarily displayed. In order to display other dimension values, it is necessary to terminate the dimension presentation function once and specify one element again by a predetermined operation.

The function of the embodiment further relates to an element (superimposed element) that is moused over (superimposed) in the layer 100 when the mouse cursor (instruction element) is displaced in the layer 100 by a mouse operation (movement operation). It has a function (hereinafter referred to as "simple measurement function") of presenting a numerical value in association with the element only while the mouse is over. With the simple measurement function, it is possible to easily display a numerical value peculiar to one specific element or a numerical value related to two specific elements in work such as editing.

The simple measurement function is activated when the "simple measurement" command is executed. It is preferable that the "simple measurement" command is executed, for example, by selecting a menu at a predetermined position as a character string menu, an icon menu, or a toolbar menu. When the simple measurement function is activated, a mouse cursor having a predetermined appearance and function is forcibly displayed, and a numerical value related to the element on which the mouse cursor is moused over is displayed. In this embodiment, these numerical values are displayed in a rubber band. The simple measurement function is terminated by pressing a predetermined key (for example, "ESC" key, "Pause" key) on the keyboard or executing another command.

FIG. 3 shows the appearance of the mouse cursor when the simple measurement function is activated. The mouse cursor 300 includes a rectangular trap box 310 (two-dimensional fixed range, designated range) including mouse coordinates (indicating point) and a cross cursor passing through the mouse coordinates (horizontal direction of layer 100 (FIG. 1)). 110 and a straight line parallel to 120 in the vertical direction). In the simple measurement function, a rectangular range (outer frame and inside of the trap box 310) is fixed to the mouse cursor 300 that can be instructed so that the mouse operation for hovering over a point-shaped or linear element is easy. ..

It is preferable that the form of the trap box 310 in the mouse cursor 300 can be arbitrarily changed by the user. For example, it is preferable that the size of the trap box 310 can be changed. The size of the trap box 310 can be changed, for example, from the option setting menu. In addition, the arrangement angle of the trap box 310 may be changeable, or the outer shape of the trap box 310 may be changeable. The modifiable outer shape is, for example, an appropriate polygon including rectangles having different aspect ratios, and an appropriate closed figure including a circle.

4-1 to 4-4 are explanatory views of an outline of the simple measurement function. As an example, when the triangle 410 is arranged in the layer 100, the trap box 310 is displaced from the position 310a to the position 310b by a mouse operation, and the mouse is over the side BC of the triangle 410 (FIG. 4). -1), the length 420 (unique numerical value) of the side is displayed in association with the side BC (Fig. 4-2). When the trap box 310 is further moved and the mouse over ends, the display of the length 420 also ends.

Further, as an example, in a state where the triangle 410 is arranged in the layer 100, the trap box 310 is displaced from the position 310a to the position 310c by a mouse operation, and the sides AB and BC of the triangle 410 are simultaneously (at the same time). When the mouse is over (Fig. 4-3), the size 430 (related numerical value) of the angle B formed by the side AB and the side BC is displayed in association with both the side AB and the side BC (Fig. 4). -4). When the trap box 310 is further moved and the mouse over is completed, the display of the size 430 also ends.

It is preferable that sufficient readability of length 420 and size 430 is ensured. As an example, it is preferable to control so that the length 420 and the size 430 are displayed at positions that do not overlap the trap box 310. As another example, the transparency of the trap box 310 may be controlled to increase while the length 420 and the size 430 are displayed.

I'm switching to. On the other hand, if the mouse cursor is in a form capable of instructing a one-dimensional fixed range (instruction range), the mouse can be moved over a linear element that is not parallel by a simple operation. In this case, the mouse cursor need only have one line segment passing through the indicated point.

The mouse cursor 800 has a line segment 810 (one-dimensional range, instruction range) passing through the mouse coordinates (instruction point) and a cross cursor passing through the mouse coordinates (at the horizontal direction 110 and the vertical direction 120 of the layer 100 (FIG. 1)). It is composed of parallel linear lines). In the first modification, the linear range (point on the line segment 810) is fixed to the mouse cursor 800 that can be instructed so that the mouse operation for hovering the mouse over the linear element is convenient.

The size (length) and orientation of the line segment 810 constituting the mouse cursor 800 may be fixed or may be manually changed. Further, the direction of the line segment may be automatically changed so as to be substantially parallel to the moving direction of the mouse cursor. This adds an empirical rule that when the mouse cursor 800 is moused over a linear element in the layer 100, the incident angle of the mouse coordinates (indicating point) with respect to the line segment is almost impossible to be 0 degrees.

The size of 950 (related numerical value, third numerical value) is displayed in association with the virtual angle line 940 (or both side AB and side BC) (Fig. 9-4). When the trap box 310 is further moved and the mouse over is completed, the display of the virtual angle line 940 and the size 950 also ends.

A plurality of virtual dimension lines and a plurality of virtual angle lines may be displayed. Then, when the trap box 310 is moused over a plurality of virtual lines at the same time (at the same time), a plurality of numerical values associated with each of them may be displayed at the same time.
