JPH01116870A - Display control method for character strings overflowing at the bottom in character editing processing - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily recognize a character string which is not displayed by displaying no character string of a part in which the lower end overflow of the character string is generated in the display area of a display but displaying a character string continuing mark predetermined at the leading position of the character string in place thereof. CONSTITUTION:An overflow decision part 6 decides whether the inputted character string overflows over the lower end of the display area on the screen of the display 8 or not based on an information from a base line calculating part 5. The result is informed to a line display/character continuing mark display control part 7. The line display/character continuing mark display control part 7 directly displays the character string in the display area of the screen of the display 8 when the lower end overflow is not generated in the inputted character string and does not display the character string having the lower end overflow in the display area of the screen of the display 8 when the lower end overflow is generated in the inputted character string but displays the character string predetermined in place thereof at the leading part of the character string. Thereby, the character string which is not displayed is easily recognized.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] This invention relates to a display control method for a character string that overflows the bottom end in character editing processing.

The purpose is to make it easier to recognize strings that are not displayed.

The baseline calculation unit calculates the baseline position on one screen for the input character string.

The result is output to the overflow determination section, which then outputs the result to the overflow determination section.

For each line of input character strings, it is determined whether the lower end of the character string overflows beyond the lower end of the display area of the display, and the result is output to the line display/character continuation mark display control unit and displayed in one line. - If it is determined that the character string does not overflow at the bottom, the character continuation mark display control unit displays the character string as is in the display area of the display, and if the character string does not overflow at the bottom. If it is determined that

The character string in the part where the lower end of the character string is overflowing is not displayed in the display area of the display, but instead is controlled to display a predetermined character continuation mark at the beginning position of the character string. .

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a display control method for character strings that cause lower end overflow in single character processing.

In recent years, without distinguishing between two characters, one figure, and an image,
Multimedia editors that perform editing processing on a display screen have come into use.

On the display screen of the multimedia editor, a display area is displayed with broken lines to represent the printable area.

Characters, figures, and images input beyond this display area are not displayed on the display screen. Especially 1
When characters are input beyond the display area, unless they are displayed on the display screen, it is difficult to recognize the part of the character string input beyond the display area, making editing and other processing difficult. Measures were needed to solve this problem.

[Conventional technology]

FIG. 7 is a processing flow diagram of a conventional example.

Hereinafter, a conventional example will be explained using FIG. 7.

■Enter characters using a keyboard, etc.

■ Determine whether the input string is overflowing at the bottom. If NO, continue processing ■.

In other words, characters are input, and if YES, the process ``■'' is executed.

■ Display messages that cannot be entered on the display screen.

■ Return to the state before input.

As described above, in the conventional example, character strings that exceed the display area of the display screen and cause the bottom edge to overflow are not input.
Therefore, it is not displayed on the display screen either.

Furthermore, as a second conventional example, a method has been considered in which a character string that causes the lower end overflow is input, but nothing is displayed in the display area of the display screen.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the conventional example, it is not possible to input a character string that causes the lower end to overflow, resulting in the problem that only a part of the desired character string can be input.

Also, I am inputting a string that causes the bottom end to overflow.

In the second conventional example in which nothing is displayed in the display area of the display screen, when editing 9 character strings, it is necessary to move the 1st character side union and display the characters of - degree on the display screen. Yes, but.

A problem has arisen in that it is difficult to recognize character strings that overflow at the bottom and are not displayed in the display area of the display screen.

The present invention provides a display control method for character strings overflowing at the bottom in character editing processing, which makes it easy to recognize character strings that are not displayed, and also allows easy editing of character strings without limiting the number of input characters. The purpose is to provide.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention provides a display control method for a character string overflowing the bottom end in single character editing processing, in which a baseline calculation unit calculates the baseline position on one screen for an input character string, and sends the result to an overflow determination unit. The overflow determination unit determines for each line of the input character string whether the bottom end of the character string overflows beyond the bottom end of the display area, and displays the result as a line/character continuation mark. If it is determined that the character string does not have a bottom end deviation, the controller outputs the 9-line display/character continuation mark display to the control unit, displays the character string as it is in the display area of the display, and If it is determined that the string has a bottom edge,
The character string in the part where the lower end of the character string occurs is not displayed in the display area of the display, but instead is controlled to display a predetermined character continuation mark at the beginning position of the character string. By doing so, character strings that are not displayed can be easily recognized, and there is no limit to the number of characters that can be input, and character strings can be easily edited.

FIG. 1 is a diagram explaining the principle of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, l is an input/editing section, 2 is a kIA collection character selection control section, 3 is an edited character data control section, 4 is a character display section, 5 is a baseline calculation section, 6 is an overflow judgment section, and 7 is a A line display/character continuation mark display control section, 8 is a display.

The input/editing section 1 has a &[collection character selection control section 2 and &I
It consists of a large character data control section 3.

The editing character selection control section 2 selects characters to be edited. The selection range also extends to the character string that causes the bottom end.

The edited character data control section 3 controls the data of characters to be edited one by one.

The character display section 4 includes a baseline calculation section 5. Overflow determination section 6
and a line display/character continuation mark display control section 7.

The baseline calculation unit 5 calculates the baseline position of the lower end of the input character string, and notifies the overflow determination unit 6 of the result.

The overflow determination unit 6 was notified from the baseline calculation unit 5. It is determined from the baseline position of the input character string whether the character string is overflowing from the lower end of the display area of the screen of the display 8, and the line display/character continuation mark display control section 7 is notified of the result. The line display/character continuation mark display control section 7 is as follows.

As a result of the notification from the overflow determination unit 6, if the input character string does not have a bottom end deviation, the character string is displayed as it is in the display area of the screen of the display 8, and the input character string has a bottom end deviation. If so, instead of displaying one line of character strings in the display area of the screen of display 8, a predetermined character continuation mark is displayed at the beginning of the character string.

On the screen of the display 8, a display area is displayed with broken lines to represent the printable area.

[Effect]

For the input character string, the baseline position, which is the lower end of the character string, is calculated in the baseline calculation section 5, and the result is notified to the overflow determination section 6.

The overflow determination unit 6 determines whether the input character string overflows beyond the lower end of the display area on the screen of the display 8 based on the notification from the baseline calculation unit 5.

The result is notified to the one-line display/character' continuation mark display control section 7.

The line display/character continuation mark display control unit 7 includes an overflow determination unit 6
The 9th process is performed depending on the type of notification from. That is,
If the input character string does not have a lower end, the character string is displayed as is in the display area of the screen of the display 8.
If the human-generated character string has a bottom end, the part of the character string where the bottom end has fallen will not be displayed in the display area of the screen of the display 8, but instead a predetermined character continuation mark will be displayed. Controls display at the beginning of the string.

A more specific explanation will be given below using FIGS. 2 to 4.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the relationship between the lower end of the two display areas and the base of the lower end of the character.

In FIG. 2, the characters displayed in the display area on the display screen are shown as solid rectangles.

Characters that extend beyond the bottom edge of the display area on the display screen and are not displayed on the display screen are indicated by dashed rectangles.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example in which a one-character 'continuation mark' is displayed.

As shown in Figure 2, if there are characters that have a bottom edge, these characters are not displayed in the display area of the display screen, but instead, the characters shown in Figure 3 are placed at the beginning of these characters. As exemplified in

A predetermined character 'continuation mark' is displayed.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a case where one character overflows to nothing.

As a result of the IJH collection of character strings, if there is no longer a character string that is overflowing at the bottom end, the two-character continuation mark is erased as shown in FIG.

〔Example〕

FIG. 5 is a flowchart for displaying a 3-character continuation mark.

An example of displaying a two-character continuation mark will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 5.

■ Notify the human resource/editorial department of the address of the overflowing character data.

■ Manpower/Notify editorial department 1 that there is no overflow.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart of nine character string editing processing.

Hereinafter, a process for collecting two character strings into a WR collection will be described using FIG. 1 and FIG. 6.

(1) Find one selection range in the collection character selection control section 2.

■ Determine whether a character continuation mark is selected. If YES, execute the first process (■).

If NO, execute the process (2).

■ Add overflowing characters to the selection range.

(1) One edit character data is edited in the edit character data control section 3.

■ Display the editing results in the display area of the display 8 screen.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The present invention has a first-order effect.

1. It becomes easier to recognize character strings that are not displayed.

2. There are no restrictions on the number of input characters depending on the character input position.

3. You can now easily edit character strings.

As a result, it is no longer necessary to be aware of the lower end of the display area during character input 2 editing, which was conventionally considered a problem 1, and it becomes possible to perform character input 5 editing very efficiently.
