Abstract
Digital image object anchor point techniques are described that increase user efficiency in interacting with a user interface to create digital images. This is achieved through use of anchor points by the digital image editing system that are defined with respect to an actual geometry of the object. Further, filtering and prioritization techniques are also leveraged to promote real world utility and efficiency of these techniques as a balance between having too many and two few anchor points.
Claims20
A method implemented by a processing device, the method comprising:
- generating, by the processing device, candidate anchor points for an object included in a digital image displayed in a user interface;
- filtering, by the processing device, the candidate anchor points, a result of which that remains is a filtered set of anchor points;
- and
- controlling, by the processing device, a location operation based on a location of the object in relation to a location of another object in the user interface based on the result.
In a digital medium object location environment, a system comprising:
- a candidate generation module implemented at least partially in hardware of a computing device to generate a candidate set of anchor points for an object included in a digital image displayed in a user interface;
- a prioritization module implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device to determine a priority of the candidate set of anchor points, one to another;
- and
- a location management module implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device to control a location operation specifying a location of the object in relation to a location of another object in the user interface based on the priority.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, responsive to execution by a processing device, includes the processing device to perform operations comprising:
- generating anchor points for an object included in digital image displayed in a user interface;
- determining priority of the anchor points, one to another;
- and
- controlling a location operation specifying a location of the object in relation to a location of another object in the user interface based on a result to the determining.
