ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a panel-presentation-software creation method, computer-readable record medium recording a panel-presentation-software creation program, and panel-presentation-software creation device.
2. Prior Art
A variety of presentations typically utilize a plurality of drawings. Such an occasion involves a cumbersome manual operation for changing the drawings in the course of the presentation.
It is contemplated that instead of using the drawings, a plurality of images are prepared so as to make the presentation by applying them to a personal computer (hereinafter, referred to as a “PC”). The utilization of the PC offers great merits that the PC streamlines the changing of the images and is capable of storing a software for making plural kinds of presentations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention has an object to provide a panel-presentation-software creation method, a computer-readable record medium recording a panel-presentation-software creation program, and a panel-presentation-software creation device which streamline the editing of a software involving the panel presentation such as a presentation execution software.
The invention has an object to provide a panel creation method, computer-readable record medium recording a panel creation program and panel creation device which streamline the editing of a software involving the panel presentation such as a presentation execution software.
The invention has an object to provide a panel editing method, computer-readable record medium recording a panel editing program and panel editing device which streamline the editing of a software involving the panel presentation such as a presentation execution software.
The invention has an object to provide a panel presentation method, computer-readable record medium recording a panel presentation program and panel presentation device which permit the output of a voice message corresponding to a character string entered by an editor during the editing of a panel, which is presented via a software involving the panel presentation, such as a presentation execution software.
In accordance with the invention, a first panel-presentation-software creation method for creating a software which provides presentation of plural edit panels by using a template with an image fitting region and an editor-designated fitting image to be fitted in the image fitting region, the method comprises the steps of creating a reference file which contains the description of reference information including link information designating each image file containing the editor-designated fitting image, and creating a panel presentation software at least including a panel presentation program, a template file containing the template, and the reference file.
When the fitted image is changed during the re-editing of the created panel presentation software, the reference information related to the changed fitted image is updated.
Preferably, the panel presentation software includes the image file designated by the link information described in the reference file.
Preferably, an arrangement is made such that the editor may click on the image fitting region in the template image thereby invoking a dialog for permitting the editor to select an image to be fitted in the image fitting region, and the image designated by the editor following the dialog is caused to appear in the image fitting region.
Preferably, an arrangement is made such that when the editor-designated image is shown in the image fitting region in the template image, the editor may click on the image fitting region thereby invoking the dialog for permitting the editor to select an image to be fitted in the image fitting region, and the currently displayed image is replaced by the image re-designated by the editor following the dialog.
A computer-readable record medium recording a panel-presentation-software creation program for creating a software which provides presentation of plural edit panels by using a template with an image fitting region and an editor-designated fitting image to be fitted in the image fitting region, the computer-readable record medium is characterized by recording the panel-presentation-software creation program which serves to implement a facility to create a reference file containing the description of reference information including link information designating each image file containing the editor-designated fitting image, and a facility to create a panel presentation software at least including a panel presentation program, a template file containing the template, and the reference file.
Preferably, the panel presentation software includes the image file designated by the linkin formation described in the reference file.
Preferably, the panel-presentation-software creation program includes a program for implementing a facility to permit the editor clicking on the image fitting region in the template image to invoke a dialog for permitting the editor to select an image to be fitted in the image fitting region, and a facility to cause the image designated by the editor following the dialog to appear in the image fitting region.
A panel-presentation-software creation device for creating a software which provides presentation of plural edit panels by using a template with an image fitting region and an editor-designated fitting image to be fitted in the image fitting region, the panel-presentation-software creation device comprises: means for creating a reference file containing the description of reference information including link information designating each image file containing the editor-designated fitting image; and means for creating a panel presentation software at least including a panel presentation program, a template file containing the template, and the reference file.
Preferably, the panel presentation software includes the image file designated by the link information described in the reference file.
Preferably, the panel-presentation-software creation device further comprises means for permitting the editor clicking on the image fitting region in the template image to invoke a dialog for permitting the editor to select an image to be displayed in the image fitting region, and means for causing the image designated by the editor following this dialog to appear in the image fitting region.
In accordance with the invention, a second panel-presentation-software creation method for creating a software which provides presentation of plural edit panels by using a template with an image fitting region and a character display region, an editor-designated fitting image to be fitted in the image fitting region, and an editor-entered character string to be shown in the character display region, the panel-presentation-software creation method comprises the steps of creating a reference file containing the description of reference information including link information designating each image file containing the editor-designated fitting image, and the editor-entered character string, and creating a panel presentation software at least including a panel presentation program, a template file containing the template and the reference file.
When the fitted image is changed during the re-editing of the created panel presentation software, the reference information related to the changed fitted image is updated whereas when the character string is changed, the reference information related to the changed character string is updated.
Preferably, the panel presentation software includes the image file designated by the link information described in the reference file.
A panel-presentation-software creation program for creating a software which provides presentation of plural edit panels by using a template with an image fitting region and an editor-designated image to be fitted in the image fitting region, the panel-presentation-software creation program serves to implement a facility to create a reference file containing the description of link i
