Abstract
A method for combining a plurality of images into a synthesis image and an electronic device implementing the same are provided. The image synthesis method of the present disclosure includes acquiring coordinates of an object in a source image; extracting a target image from the source image based on the coordinates such that the target image contains the object; and displaying the target image in a section of a frame mapped to the source image.
Claims24
An image synthesis method comprising:
- detecting, by an electronic device, selection of source images;
- recognizing a number of objects in the selected source images;
- displaying thumbnail images representing respectively frames on a display of the electronic device, each of the frames having sections and the number of the sections being equal to the number of the objects;
- detecting, by the electronic device, a user input selecting one of the thumbnail images representing frames having the number of sections being equal to the number of objects;
- acquiring position information of the objects in tag information associated with the source images;
- extracting target images from the source images based on the position information such that each of the extracted target images contains an object;
- and
- displaying, on the display of the electronic device, the target images in the sections of the frame that correspond to the selected one of the thumbnail images.

An image synthesis method comprising:
- detecting, by an electronic device, selection of source images included in an image folder;
- recognizing a number of objects in the source images;
- displaying thumbnail images representing respectively frames on a display of the electronic device, each of the frames having sections and the number of the sections being equal to the number of the objects;
- detecting, by the electronic device, a user input selecting one of the thumbnail images representing frames having the number of sections being equal to the number of objects;
- acquiring position information of the objects in tag information associated with the source images;
- extracting target images from the source images based on the position information, such that each of the extracted target images contains an object;
- and
- displaying, on the display of the electronic device, each target image in a corresponding section of a magazine screen view representing a cover of the image folder.
