ABSTRACT:
The user moves a mouse to position a cursor on the original image and depresses the mouse pushbutton to designate a first corner (x1, y1) of the initially desired rectangular cropped image. The mouse is then manually moved and the sequentially updated position of the cursor instantaneously defines a second corner (x2, y2) diagonally opposite the first corner. All the time the mouse is moved and its pushbutton still depressed a sequentially varying area potential cropped image and a correspondingly sized obscured portion are displayed. If the user is satisfied with the aesthetics of the current cropped image he or she releases the mouse pushbutton, moves the cursor within the boundaries of the current cropped image and double clicks in order to select this cropped image for further processing, such as inclusion into a document being concurrently displayed in another window. Alternatively, any two of x1, y1, x2 and y2 can be updated by positioning the cursor over one of the four corners of the rectangular boundary of the current cropped image, depressing the mouse pushbutton, and holding it down while the cursor is moved.
