Abstract
An image processing apparatus which includes an extension width determination unit for determining an extension width based on a depression time of the cursor at a reference position on an image display unit where a releasing operation of the cursor was performed, which is a time during which the cursor had been kept depressed until the releasing operation was performed, and an ornament piece arrangement unit for arranging the plurality of ornament pieces at positions radially extended away from the reference position with the extension width determined by the extension width determination unit.
Claims20
A computer implemented method comprising:
- selecting, by a computer system, a number, size, or color of ornament pieces of a shape-type, wherein the number, size, or color is variable in response to a first duration of time of a first user engagement with a first element of a user interface associated with the shape-type;
- and
- arranging, by the computer system, the ornament pieces on an image associated with a radial distance constituting an extension width from a reference position of the user interface in response to a second duration of time of second user engagement at the reference position, wherein the arranging the ornament pieces comprises generating an arrangement line having spaced apart points about the reference position, wherein shapes are positioned at the spaced apart points, and the ornament pieces are positioned along lines of the shapes.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon a set of instructions, which when executed by a computer, perform acts comprising:
- selecting a number, size, or color of ornament pieces of a shape-type, wherein the number, size, or color is variable in response to a first duration of time of a first user engagement with a first element of a user interface associated with the shape-type;
- and
- arranging the ornament pieces on an image associated with a radial distance constituting an extension width from a reference position of the user interface in response to a second duration of time of second user engagement at the reference position, wherein the arranging the ornament pieces comprises generating an arrangement line having spaced apart points about the reference position, wherein shapes are positioned at the spaced apart points, and the ornament pieces are positioned along lines of the shapes.
A system comprising:
- at least one processor, and
- a memory storing instructions configured to instruct the at least one processor to perform:
- selecting at least one of a number, size, and color of ornament pieces of a shape-type, wherein the number, size, or color is variable in response to a first duration of time of a first user engagement with a first element of a user interface associated with the shape-type;
- and
- arranging the ornament pieces on an image associated with a radial distance constituting an extension width from a reference position of the user interface in response to a second duration of time of second user engagement at the reference position, wherein the arranging the ornament pieces comprises generating an arrangement line having spaced apart points about the reference position, wherein shapes are positioned at the spaced apart points, and the ornament pieces are positioned along lines of the shapes.
