[DESCRIPTION] [Invention Title]
DOCUMENT EDITING PROGRAM OF TREE-STRUCTURE AND METHOD THEREOF [Technical Field]
<i> The present invention relates to a tree-structure document editor and a method thereof, and more particularly, to a tree-structure document editor capable of easily editing formats and entities having various sizes, such as a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram, a chart and a three- dimensional (3D) model, in a tree structure and a method thereof. [Background Art]
<2> Recently, as electronic communication technologies have rapidly been developed, computers for inputting, editing and storing a large amount of information in specific formats have come into wide use.
<3> In order to support a document editing function using a computer, software developers are developing various types of document editors. Currently, Microsoft Office Word of Microsoft Corporation and Hangul of Haansoft Inc. are being used as representative editors.
<4> Most document editors which are currently being used provide a variety of additional functions such as a image file insertion function, a diagram insertion function, and an external document insertion function in addition to a basic text input function, and provide a tree-structure window for representing structure information of documents in brief as well as a document editing window such that a user efficiently performs a document editing function.
<5> However, in the conventional tree-structure document editor, the editing window is divided into an area for displaying the tree and a data input area. Accordingly, when a user selects a specific node of the tree in order to edit a document, the user cannot directly edit the document on the specific node of the tree. That is, it is troublesome that the user should edit the document using a separate data editing window.
<6> In addition, in the conventional tree-structure document editor, since
the nodes included in the tree are positioned at the same height and the nodes included in the tree support only a text, other entities such as an image, a moving picture, a diagram and a chart cannot be directly edited on the nodes of the tree.
[Disclosure]
[Technical Problem]
<7> Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a tree- structure document editor which is capable of easily and rapidly editing entities having a variety of sizes and data, such as a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram/chart , and application program extension data, in a single tree structure, and a method thereof.
<8> It is another object of the present invention to provide a tree- structure document editor which allows nodes included in a tree-structure document to serve as an index and to host and represent special entities having a variety of formats and functions.
<9>
[Technical Solution]
<io> In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, the above and other objects can be accomplished by the provision of a document editor for supporting a tree structure including a plurality of nodes, the document editor comprising: a key input unit which generates and outputs a key signal according to a key operation of a user who edits a document; a control unit which controls execution, storage, and loading of the tree-structure document editor and wholly controls the editing of a tree-structure document according to the key signal input by the key input unit; a user interface unit which displays a document editor input screen on a screen and displays an input format for editing contents by the user selection of a function for inputting input data including a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram, a chart, and a 3D model on the screen, under the control of the control unit; a document management unit which defines the tree structure including at least
one uppermost node and lower main/sub node by the operation of the user, inputs data of the text or the diagram/chart among the input data which is input on the node by the user who generates the at least one uppermost node and lower main/sub node or displays a specific image file, moving picture file or 3D model data stored previously among the input data, or displays an editor corresponding thereto to generate the tree-structure document; an output generation unit which outputs the tree-structure document generated by the document management unit; and a storage unit which stores actual data of the image or the moving picture used for editing the document or a link thereof and stores the tree-structure document generated by the document management unit. di> The control unit may maintain content sizes corresponding to logical output sizes of all the nodes in a memory field, for real-time variations in coordinate values of the nodes due to addition/deletion/movement and extension/reduction of the nodes by the operation of the user who searches for the tree-structure document.
<12> The control unit may search for a resource of a specific node selected by the user by tree searching and selectively copy or refer to the resource, without outputting all the text, the image, the moving picture, the diagram, the chart and the 3D model included in the nodes of the generated tree- structure document on the screen.
<i3> When a resource included in each of the nodes of the tree-structure document is not displayed on the screen, the control unit may remove the resource from a memory to optimize the use of the memory.

in a file, and control the data to be displayed when the file is opened.
:15> The tree-structure document may represent the nodes including the text, the image, the moving picture, the diagram, the chart, and the 3D model in a single field (integers or characters).
=i6> The tree-structure document may store the image, the moving picture, and an external entity in a binary data format or as a reference uniform resource locator (URL).
;17> The tree-structure document can be added/moved/deleted/corrected without restriction between the layers of the nodes. In the tree-structure document, the size of a node which is being edited can be adjusted by dragging a contour displayed on the screen. d8> In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of editing a document using a document editor for supporting a tree structure including a plurality of nodes, the method comprising: (1) at a control unit, displaying a tree-structure document editor input screen including tool menus for generating a tree-structure document on a screen via a user interface unit by the execution of the document editor by a user!

[Advantageous Effects]
<2i> In a tree-structure document editor and a method thereof according to the present invention, since entities having a variety of sizes or data, such as a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram/chart and application program extension data desired by a user, can be edited by a tree structure on a single document editor, the mass production of a document having a specific format, such as a dictionary, a code of laws, a project management,
or a resume, is possible. Since several editing windows do not need to be used, the editing and the management of data can be conveniently performed. [Description of Drawings]
:22> The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be more clearly understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
23> FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram showing the configuration of a tree-structure document editor according to the present invention;
=24> FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating in detail the operation of a method of editing a tree-structure document according to the present invention;
25> FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating in detail the operation of a subroutine of FIG.2; and
=26> FIGS. 4 to 8 are views for explaining the use state of the tree- structure document editor according to the present invention. [Best Mode]
<n> Hereinafter, a tree-structure document editor and a method thereof according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
«28> FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram showing the configuration of a tree-structure document editor according to the present invention.
<29> As shown in the drawing, the tree-structure document editor includes a key input unit 10, a control unit 20, a user interface unit 30, a document management unit 40, an output generation unit 50, and a storage unit 60.
<30> The key input unit 10 is a general key input unit, such as a keyboard or a mouse, which generates a key signal according to the key operation of a user, who uses the tree-structure document editor, and outputs the key signal to the control unit 20.
<3i> The control unit 20 controls the execution, storage, and loading of the tree-structure document editor and wholly controls the editing of the tree- structure document according to the key signal received from the key input unit 10.
O
:32> At this time, the control unit 20 maintains content sizes corresponding to logical output sizes of all nodes in a memory field, for real-time variations in coordinate values of the nodes due to the addition/deletion/movement and extension/reduction of the nodes by the operation of a user who searches the tree. That is, in order to rapidly apply the real-time variations in coordinate values of the nodes having different sizes, the node's screen display heights, to which the size of a lower node applies in real time, are maintained in the form of the memory field, variations in positions of the nodes on the screen are searched in a top-down manner, starting with a list of uppermost nodes, such that a node which is first displayed on the screen is obtained, and then, starting with the first node, nodes which will be displayed at next positions are sequentially obtained according to the relationship between the nodes, thereby creating a list of screen display nodes.
=33> A method of searching for a node which will be first output on a screen will be described in more detail. First, the node's screen display heights including the display heights of lower main/sub nodes are accumulated in an uppermost node group to decide uppermost nodes which will be displayed on the screen, the node's screen display heights are accumulated in a lower node group, which directly belongs to the uppermost nodes, to decide the lower nodes, the accumulation of the node's screen display heights is repeatedly performed while progressing to lower-level nodes, and the searching of the nodes is completed. The display area of a corresponding node is decided on the basis of the obtained data (that is, an X coordinate is calculated in consideration of a basic option according to the level of the corresponding node and the offset inputted by the user, a Y coordinate is the screen display height obtained by the accumulation, and the size of the node is stored as its information field).
<34> The control unit 20 does not output all of a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram, and a chart included in the nodes of the generated tree- structure document on the screen, that is, searches for only a resource of a
specific node selected by the user by tree searching and copies and refers to the resource.
;35> When a resource included in each node of the tree document is not displayed on the screen, the control unit 20 removes the resource from a memory to optimize the use of the memory.
<36> The control unit 20 controls data, such as the logical size of a node which is the size of the node displayed on the screen, the screen size of the node which is the size of the node output on a current screen, the size and type of the node including the extension size of the node which is the size obtained by accumulating the screen size of the corresponding node and the screen sizes of the lower nodes thereof, the size of the node which can be displayed on the screen, and information indicating whether extension display is possible, to be recorded in a file, and controls the data to be displayed when the file is opened.
<37> The tree-structure document represents node formats including a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram and a chart in a single field (integers or characters), stores the image, the moving picture, and an external entity in a binary data format or as a reference uniform resource locator (URL), allows addition/deletion/correction without restriction between the layers of the nodes, and adjusts the size of the node, which is being edited, by dragging a contour displayed on the screen. As the extension of the tree- structure document, "*.tdoc" is used. However, the extension of the tree document is not limited to this and other extensions may be used. The size of each node is related to the size of a text, an image or a moving picture.
<38> The user interface unit 30 displays a document editor input screen on the screen and displays an input format for editing contents on the screen according to the user selection of a function for inputting a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram, a chart or a 3D model, under the control of the control unit 20.
<39> The document management unit 40 defines the tree structure including at least one uppermost node and lower main/sub node according to the operation
of the user, processes a text and data of a diagram/chart, which are input on a corresponding node by the user who generates the tree structure including the at least one uppermost node and the lower main/sub node, or displays a specific image or moving picture file stored previously or an editor corresponding thereto to generate a tree-structure document.
:40> The output generation unit 50 outputs the tree-structure document generated by the document management unit 40.
;4i> The storage unit 60 stores actual data such as an image and a moving picture used for editing a document or a link thereof, and stores the tree- structure document generated by the document management unit 40.
;42> Next, an embodiment of a method of editing a tree-structure document according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 2 to 8. i43> FIGS. 2 and 3 are flowcharts illustrating in detail the operation of the method of editing the tree-structure document according to the present invention, and FIGS. 4 to 8 are views for explaining the use state of the tree-structure document editor according to the present invention.
Ϊ44> The editing method which applies to the tree-structure document editor according to the present invention will be described in brief. The editing method described herein is provided as one embodiment and may be changed depending on a system environment.
<45> In the tree-structure document editor according to the present invention, in order to provide a user with a familiar document editing environment, when a text is input using a keyboard, a specific amount of characters is displayed on a line and the rest of the text is displayed on a next line if the amount of characters to be displayed exceeds the specific amount .
<46> A new text node is formed and a brother node is output on a next line when an enter key is pressed and a corresponding node is deleted when a shift-delete key is pressed. When a backspace key is pressed at a cursor positioned at a foremost portion of a text node, the text node is combined to
the upper node thereof. The insertion/correction/deletion/copy/cut of the character is equal to that of a general document editor. When the text of a text node is empty, a display icon is not output such that a blank is displayed.
;47> In the tree-structure document editor according to the present invention, since the contents of the document are layered unlike the general document, the searching of a desired resource is facilitated. By searching for the resource of a corresponding document by tree searching and copying and referring to only the necessary node, without outputting all a plurality of documents on the screen, it is possible to rapidly and easily edit a document (For example, when a node position of a document is input to a text box and the enter key is pressed, the node is inserted into a lower node of a current node editing position. In a case where a requested node is of a folder type, the lower nodes thereof are copied at once when the shift-enter key is pressed).
<48> Since the tree-structure document editor according to the present invention supports a variety of data formats, it is possible to easily create an optimal screen layout desired by a user. In addition, since the mass production of a document having a format which can be always reused/reproduced by inputting the layered address of the node is possible and the nodes having a variety of formats are prepared by deriving a basic node having a specific screen output size, the addition/movement/deletion/correction is facilitated without restriction between layers and thus a convenient layered document environment can be provided. The size of the node which is being edited can be adjusted by dragging the contour of the node displayed on the screen, and the horizontal position of the node can be specified by clicking an increase/decrease button of a tool .
<49> The operation keys of the tree-structure document editor according to the present invention are as follows.
<50> Enter: Separate characters at a character position of a current node
and add a new text node including the separated characters c5i> Shift-Enter: Add a lower node ;52> Shift-Left: Move to an upper node ;53> Shift-Right: Move to first lower node c54> Shift-Delete: Delete a current node
=55> Shift-Insert: Add a new node (basic node) in a lower layer ;56> Up: Move a current cursor to the position of a corresponding character of an upper node ;57> Down: Move a current cursor to the position of a corresponding character of a lower node c58> Ctrl-Right: Extend a selected node =59> Ctrl-Left: Reduce a selected node =60> <When a character cursor is an insertion ρoint> ϊ6i> Ctrl-C: Copy a node c62> Ctrl-V: Paste a node c63> Ctrl-X: Cut a node
<64> <When a character cursor specifies a selected character> Ϊ65> Ctrl-C: Copy a character <66> Ctrl-V: Paste a character <67> Ctrl-X: Cut a character <68> Now, an embodiment of the method of editing the tree-structure document according to the present invention using the above-described keys will be described in detail . <69> First, the control unit 20 determines whether a signal for executing the tree-structure document editor is input via the key input unit 10 by the operation of a user (SlO), and displays a tree-structure document editor input screen including tool menus for generating a tree-structure document on a screen via the user interface unit 30 when the signal for executing the tree-structure document editor is input (S20). <70> The control unit 20 determines whether a user performs a key operation
(for example, mouse clicking) for generating a new document on the tree-
-Lo
structure document editor input screen (S30), and the user interface unit 30 generates a node for supporting a text when the key operation for generating the new document is performed (S40) .
:7i> The document management unit 40 determines whether the user who generates the node for inputting a basic text directly inputs the text on the node or selects any one of the tool menus such as the image, the moving picture, the diagram/chart and the application program extension data (that is, an external editor) (S50). c72> If it is determined that the user directly inputs the text on the node using the keyboard or selects any one of the tool menus such as the image, the moving picture, the diagram/chart and the application program extension data, the document management unit 40 records the text which is directly input by the user or performs the input process of the image, the moving picture, the diagram/chart and the application program extension data, generates a node at a corresponding position by the user selection for the generation of an uppermost node or lower main/sub node, and performs the input process of the image, the moving picture, the diagram/chart and the application program extension data to generate a tree-structure document (S60).
«73> The step S60 is described in detail with reference to FIG. 3. The document management unit 40 determines whether the user selects any one of the text input, the image input, the moving picture input, the diagram/chart input and the application program extension data input on the node generated newly (S602), and allows the user to directly input the text on the node if it is determined that the user selects the text input (S604) (see FIG.4).
<74> If it is determined that the user selects the image input in the step S602, the document management unit 40 executes a folder window such that the user selects the image file stored in the storage unit 60 (S606) and determines whether the user who confirms the folder window selects a specific image file (S608). When the user selects the specific image file, the image file is displayed on the node according to the size thereof (S610) (see FIG.
5).
;75> If it is determined that the user selects the input of an external entity such as the moving picture in the step S602, the document management unit 40 executes a folder window such that the user selects the external entity such as the moving picture stored in the storage unit 60 (S612), and determines whether the user who confirms the folder window selects a specific moving picture file (e.g. a movie file) (S614). When the user who confirms the folder window selects the specific moving picture file, a module for executing the file is loaded on a memory (S616) and the moving picture file selected by the user is reproduced on the node (S618) (see FIG.6).
=76> If it is determined that the user selects the input of the diagram/chart and the application program extension data in the step S602, the document management unit 40 displays the diagram/chart and the application program extension data on the node (S620) and determines whether the user performs the key operation for changing the contents of the diagram/chart and the application program extension data (S622). If it is determined that the key operation for changing the contents of the diagram/chart and the application program extension data is performed, a table or interface for changing data is inserted into a document in a manner similar to node extension or is displayed on the screen in a popup form (S624), it is determined whether the user inputs data to the table or interface for changing the data to change the data (S626), and the data changed by the user applies to the diagram/chart and the application program extension data to display the diagram/chart and the application program extension data on the corresponding node when the data is changed (S628) (see FIGS. 7 and 8).
<77> After the user inputs the text, the image, the moving picture, the diagram/chart and the application program extension data on the specific node, the document management unit 40 determines whether the generation of the uppermost node or lower main/sub node is selected by the operation of the user (S630), and generates a node at a position specified by the user and
repeatedly performs the process after the step S602 when the generation of the uppermost node or lower main/sub node is selected (S632).
;78> After the input process of the text, the image, the moving picture, the diagram/chart and the application program extension data is performed in the step S60, the control unit 20 determines whether the user selects the completion of the operation of the tree-structure document (that is, determines whether the user selects the storage of the tree-structure document) (S70), stores the tree-structure document which is currently being operated and completes the document editor if it is determined that the completion of the operation of the tree-structure document is selected (S80), and repeatedly performs the step S60 for generating the tree-structure document if it is determined that the completion of the operation of the tree-structure document is not selected. At this time, when the tree- structure document which is currently being edited is stored, the storage unit 60 records the data such as the logical size of a node which is the size of the node displayed on the screen, the screen size of the node which is the size of the node output on a current screen, the size and type of the node including the extension size of the node which is the size obtained by accumulating the screen size of the corresponding node and the screen sizes of the lower nodes thereof, the size of the node which can be displayed on the screen, and information indicating whether the extension display is possible, to be recorded in a file such that the data is displayed on the screen when the user loads the tree-structure document later. That is, the tree-document operation state is displayed without alteration.
<79> Meanwhile, it is determined that the user does not select the generation of the new document on the tree-structure document editor in the step S30, the control unit 20 determines whether the user selects a specific tree-structure document stored previously (S90), and loads and displays the tree-structure document stored in the storage unit 60 on the screen via the user interface unit 30 if it is determined that the user selects the specific tree-structure document stored previously (SlOO).
:80> After the tree-structure document is loaded and displayed on the screen, the document management unit 40 determines whether an additional operation of the tree-structure document is selected by the operation of the user who confirms the tree-structure document or whether the movement/deletion of the tree-structure document is selected (SIlO).
:8i> If it is determined that the additional operation of the tree-structure document is selected, the document management unit 40 repeatedly performs the process after the step S60 for generating the document. In contrast, if it is determined that the movement/deletion of the tree-structure document is selected by the operation of the user, the movement/deletion of a specific node selected by the user is performed (S120). c82> After the movement/deletion of the tree-structure document is performed, the control unit 20 determines whether the user selects the completion of the movement/deletion of the tree-structure document (that is, determines whether the storage of the tree-structure document is selected) (S130). If it is determined that the completion of the movement/deletion of the tree-structure document is selected, the tree-structure document which is currently being operated is stored in the storage unit 60 and the document editor is completed (S140). In contrast, if it is determined that the movement/deletion of the tree-structure document is not selected, the process after the step SIlO is repeatedly performed. [Industrial Applicability]
Ϊ83> As described above, in a tree-structure document editor and a method thereof according to the present invention, since entities having a variety of sizes or data, such as a text, an image, a moving picture, a diagram/chart and application program extension data desired by a user, can be edited by a tree structure on a single document editor, the mass production of a document having a specific format, such as a dictionary, a code, a project management, and a resume, is possible.
