ABSTRACT:
Conventionally, a user interface used to change the color of a digital image has a configuration in which three elements, i.e., hue, chroma, and brightness are independent from each other, and the relationship among the three elements are difficult to be recognized, resulting in poor usability. This invention provides a user interface which movably displays a color object that represents an original color on a chromaticity diagram that expresses an arbitrary color system. The user can designate a destination color by moving the color object on the chromaticity diagram. For this reason, the user can easily select and designate a practical color.
