As shown in FIG. 3 , in the present invention, when a user draws text or a picture using a line, line information, that is, the coordinate value of the line, the thickness of the line, the color of the line, the shape of the line, the type of pen used, the type of brush used The type, line transparency, pen pressure, pen speed, and mixing ratio maintenance time will be different. In addition, by allowing the line information to change along with the color change, various colors and various line information can be combined with each other.

4 is an example of mixing ratio and pen information used in the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4 , it can be seen that in the present invention, a color (current color) is generated and used by adjusting two colors (color 1 & color 2) at a desired ratio by a user. In FIG. 4, two colors (color 1 & color 2) are mixed in a ratio of 1:1 (5/10), and the brightness of the mixed colors is also adjusted. The information of the pen includes the type of the pen, the thickness of the pen, and the transparency of the pen.

5 shows an example of automatically setting a mixing ratio.

Referring to FIG. 5 , it can be seen that when a blending ratio increase value and a blending ratio increase unit (stroke) are set, the blending ratio increases as the number of strokes can be repeated according to the set value. That is, since the mixing ratio of color 1 and color 2 is set to increase by 2 whenever the user draws one line (stroke), when the mixing ratio of the first stroke is 1, the mixing ratio of the fifth stroke will be 9. will be. According to the increase/decrease ratio set for the blending ratio, each time the user draws a line, the blending ratio can be automatically increased or decreased.

6 illustrates another example of automatically setting the mixing ratio.

Referring to FIG. 6 , when a coordinate value of a line is set in units of a blending ratio increase value and a blending ratio increase unit, the blending ratio increases by 1 for each coordinate value in one line.

6 (a) includes 8 coordinate values on one line, the mixing ratio is 1 for 1 to 2 coordinate values, 2 for 2 to 3 coordinate values, 3 for 3 to 4 coordinate values, Coordinate values 4 to 5 are set to 4, coordinate values 5 to 6 are set to 5, coordinate values 6 to 7 are set to 6, and coordinate values 7 to 8 are set to 7, respectively.

6B illustrates an example including five coordinate values.

FIG. 6C is an example of increasing the mixing ratio for each two coordinate values as an example of applying a color differently for each two coordinate value units. The mixing ratio is set to 1 for coordinates 1 to 3, 2 for coordinates 3 to 5, 3 for coordinates 5 to 7, and 4 for coordinate values 7 to 9, respectively.

7 illustrates another example of automatically setting the mixing ratio.

Referring to FIG. 7 , it can be seen that the mixing ratio can be automatically adjusted according to the sensitivity of the pen pressure when the user draws a line by setting the mixing ratio setting value, the mixing ratio increment unit (coordinate value), and the mixing ratio pen pressure sensitivity. can

7(a) shows that the mixing ratio of the first stroke was automatically input as 3 according to the average of the input pressure per stroke, the average pressure of the second stroke was 5, and the average pressure of the third stroke was 3, 4 The first is an example in which the average speed is 4, the fifth is the average pen pressure is 7, and the mixing ratio is automatically set to 7, and FIG. 7(b) is a graph example showing the actual input pen pressure.

The pen pressure varies depending on the manufacturer of the pen, but usually it can be entered very finely from 0.000001 to 1, and the actual mixing ratio can be adjusted in 500 to 2000 steps, but for convenience of explanation, the pen pressure is set to 0.1 to 1. , and the mixing ratio was also simply set in steps of 1 to 10. Likewise, the coordinate values on the actual line usually come out about 50 to 70 coordinates per line, and more than 100 coordinate values come out if you draw long.

Referring to FIG. 8 , as in FIG. 7 , the mixing ratio is set to 1 to 10 steps, and the starting and ending pen pressures are set for each mixing ratio step by step. For example, the mixing ratio 1 sets the starting pen pressure sensitivity from 0.1 to By setting up to 0.2 and setting the mixing ratio 2 in the same way as 0.2 to 0.3, and automatically changing the mixing ratio in response to the input pen pressure, the user can conveniently set the mixing ratio for the pen pressure.

(a) of FIG. 8 is an example of setting and applying a mixing ratio for each one coordinate value, and (b) of FIG. 8 is an example of applying and setting a mixing ratio of two coordinate values based on two coordinate values. The mixing ratio increases for each coordinate value, and (c) of FIG. 8 is an example of obtaining 5, which is the average of 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, and 7, for all coordinate values and applying the same color with the mixing ratio 5 to be. Fig. 8(d) shows the actual input pen pressure, and it can be seen that the pen pressure was gradually inputted, and thus the mixing ratio was automatically changed and used so that the mixing ratio was also gradually increased.

Accordingly, FIG. 8 is an example in which the mixing ratio is automatically applied according to the pen pressure as in FIG. 7 , FIG. 7 is an example applied as an average of pen pressure in one stroke unit, and FIG. 8 is an example applied to each coordinate value in one line.

9 illustrates another example of automatically setting the mixing ratio.

Referring to FIG. 9 , it can be seen that if the mixing ratio increase value, the mixing ratio increase unit (coordinate value), and the mixing ratio speed are set, the mixing ratio can be automatically changed in response to the speed of the user drawing text or pictures. .

9 shows an example of automatically changing the blending ratio for each coordinate value in one stroke according to the user's setting, and FIG. 9(a) is an example showing the actual pen input speed. It shows a situation in which the speed is increased to 6 at the end after entering about 3, entering 7 the fastest at the midpoint, and gradually slowing it down. 9B is an example of a graph showing an actual input speed, and shows an example in which the mixing ratio is automatically changed in response to the input speed of the pen.

10 illustrates another example of automatically setting the mixing ratio.

Referring to FIG. 10 , if the blend ratio increase value, blend ratio increase unit (stroke), and blend ratio speed are set, the blending ratio can be automatically changed in response to the pen speed in stroke units when the user draws a line. Able to know.

10(a) shows that the mixing ratio of the first stroke is automatically input as 3 according to the average of the input speeds per stroke, the average speed of the second stroke is 5, and the average speed of the third is 3, 4 The first is an example in which the average speed is 4, the fifth is the average speed is 7, and the mixing ratio is automatically set to 7, and FIG. 10 (b) is a graph example showing the actual input speed. If the user sets the stroke unit to 2, the mixing ratio changes automatically whenever two lines of the same color are drawn according to the mixing ratio according to the initial pen pressure.

11 is an example of the user drawing a line with the changed color when the user sets the time and the automatic mixing ratio, and shows the user by automatically changing the color by the mixing ratio set by the user at every time set by the user.

In the example shown in FIGS. 5 to 11, it is automatically changed according to the value of the mixing ratio provided by default in the example that responds to the speed of drawing the line or the pressure of the pen to draw the line, or automatically changes the mixing ratio by the mixing ratio maintenance time Embodiments are also possible, but if each user sets a little differently according to the user's settings so that they can be used, a color suitable for one's own style can be easily and automatically selected.

If the example shown in FIGS. 5 to 11 is applied, a color can be automatically selected when drawing a line, so the user can change the color to the desired color without having to change the color every time in the setting window, so that the user can draw comfortably. .

As an example of actual use of the present invention, assuming that a user draws a sunrise scene when drawing a picture with a mobile device, in the existing prior art, one color close to the actual sun color is set to RGB, and colors that are slightly different are used for coloring. You need to change the color value little by little in the middle. However, using the technology of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, the user first selects the sun's color, bright orange, as color 1, and the last color of the sun, red, as color 2, and selects the mixing ratio bar of these two colors. You can easily draw a sunrise scene by adjusting it. Also, if you set the blending ratio to automatically increase by +2 every time you draw a line, the color is automatically set to become darker for each line you draw without any additional setting, so you can focus more on the drawing.

As a similar real-world example, suppose you paint a summer landscape mountain in Nokwon, when selecting color 1 and color 2, the user does not select a color, but instead finds and recycles lines of similar colors from other previous painting works. way to make it
