Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a ruled line control section in a document creation/editing device.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

In conventional document creation and editing devices such as word processors, when you want to instruct the creation or deletion of ruled lines in a certain direction, you have to prepare two different keys for inputting ruled lines and deleting ruled lines, or you have to use a combination with other keys. Directed by. However, in the prior art, it is necessary to arrange two types of keys on the keyboard. Also, even if one key has both functions, the character unit is different from other editing operations, such as the ruled line, and the ruled line for one character must be drawn across two characters, half a character at a time. In such cases, there is a drawback that it cannot be achieved simply by reversing generation or deletion.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention was made in consideration of such circumstances, and
The purpose is to provide a document creation/editing device that can easily determine generation or deletion of ruled lines in a certain direction using one type of key.

[Summary of the invention]

According to the present invention, when a ruled line in a certain direction is input, generation or deletion of the ruled line can be easily determined by considering the specified direction and determining from character data in the document memory. .

[Effects of the Invention] Therefore, according to the present invention, when inputting a ruled line in a certain direction, by specifying it with one type of key, it is possible to automatically determine whether to generate or delete the specified direction from character data.

[Embodiment of the Invention] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration diagram of the embodiment device, and the input section 1
, an editing control section 2, a ruled line control section 3, a document storage section 4, and an output section 5.

Next, its effect will be explained.

For example, a keyboard is used as the input section 1, and the output code from the input section 1 is supplied to the editing control section 2. If the code supplied from the input section 1 is a ruled line instruction, the editing control section 2 supplies the code to the ruled line control section 3 together with the direction of the instruction.

The ruled line control unit 3 controls the document storage unit 4 so that if a ruled line is drawn in the specified direction of the character stored in the designated document storage unit 4, the ruled line is erased, and if the ruled line is not drawn, a ruled line is generated. Change the contents of The output unit 5 uses a display device, for example, and displays the content of the document storage unit 4 with reference to it.

FIG. 2 shows a configuration diagram of the ruled line control section 3. As shown in FIG.

The designated direction determining unit 31 determines in which direction the ruled line is designated, and sends the result to the document data determining unit 32 to use as a condition for determining generation or deletion of the ruled line. The document data determining unit 32 determines whether or not ruled lines have already been drawn in the designated direction given to the literary data. The action determining unit 33 determines whether to generate ruled lines or to erase them based on the result determined by the Japanese/Japanese data determining unit 32. When generation or deletion is determined, the ruled line editing section 34 changes the document data in the document storage section 4 to generate or delete the ruled line.

This operation will be explained in detail in the flowchart of FIG.

Next is a specific example).

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of displaying document data.

Here, it is assumed that ruled lines are specified using four keys that move the cursor: upper ruled line, lower ruled line, right ruled line, and left ruled line.

(a) shows that a ruled line for two characters is drawn across three characters in the document data. The cursor is on the leftmost character, but here is an example of how document data is displayed when you specify the right border, that is, the border toward the middle character.
). The letters on the left side of (a) had a line drawn to the right, so the line has been erased.

Further, (C) shows an example of displaying document data, in which only half a character's worth of ruled lines remain due to other editing operations. (d) is a case where a ruled line is specified from the left character to the right character in the state of (C), and since the left character had a ruled line drawn to the right, the ruled line is erased. (e) is a case where a ruled line is specified from the right character to the left character in the state (C). Here, since no left-facing ruled line was drawn on the right character, a ruled line is generated.

In the method of simply reversing the generation or erasure of ruled lines, (a
), there is no problem, but in case (C), the situation shown in (f) occurs, and the ruled line of half a character remains forever, which poses a big problem in terms of operability.

As mentioned above, according to the present invention, when a ruled line is specified, the specified direction can be easily determined from the document data to automatically determine whether the ruled line is generated: 1: or deleted. equipment can be provided.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.

For example, the ruled line may be specified by specifying the starting point and ending point. In short, the present invention can be implemented with various modifications without departing from the gist thereof.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

1 and 2 are sub-block diagrams showing an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a flowchart explaining the operation of the embodiment, and FIG. 4 is a diagram explaining the embodiment. Specification 1. Invention title document creation and editing device 2. An input unit for obtaining a character code string and editing instruction input corresponding to a claims document, a document memory for storing the inputted character code string of the document, and a display output of the character data string in the document memory. an editing control section for editing the data stored in the document memory according to an editing instruction inputted from the input section; In a document creation/editing device equipped with a ruled line control unit that controls the presence or absence of ruled lines in data, generation or deletion of ruled lines by the ruled line control unit is performed based on the direction in which ruled lines are specified and the ruled lines of character data stored in the document memory. A document creation/editing device characterized by determining based on components. 3. Detailed Description of the Invention [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a ruled line control section in a document creation/editing device. [Technical Background of the Invention and Problems Therewith] In conventional document creation and editing devices such as word processors, when instructing generation or deletion of ruled lines in a certain direction, two different keys, ruled line input and ruled line deletion, are pressed. It is instructed either by preparing it or by combining it with Haku's key. However, in the prior art, it is necessary to arrange two types of keys on the keyboard. Also, even if the 16- key has both functions, the character unit is different from other editing operations like the ruled line, and the ruled line for one character must be drawn across two half-characters. In cases where this is not the case, there is a drawback that it cannot be achieved simply by reversing generation or deletion. [Object of the invention] The present invention has been made in consideration of these circumstances, and
The purpose is to provide a document creation/editing device that can easily determine generation or deletion of ruled lines in a certain direction using one type of key.
