GRAPHICS RENDERING AND EDITING APPARATUS AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A graphics rendering and editing apparatus, comprising:
- a rendering unit configured to render a graphic object;
a position specifying unit configured to specify a pre-change position and a post-change position of an arbitrary point on the graphic object;
an attribute specifying unit configured to specify a deformation attribute of the graphic object, the deformation attribute being related to how the graphic object is deformed as a position of the arbitrary point changes; and
a deformation unit configured to deform, when the position specifying unit has specified the pre-change position and the post-change position, the graphic object in accordance with the pre-change position, the post-change position, and the attribute specified by the attribute specifying unit.

Abstract
A graphics rendering and editing apparatus includes a rendering unit configured to render a graphic object, a position specifying unit configured to specify a pre-change position and a post-change position of an arbitrary point on the graphic object, an attribute specifying unit configured to specify a deformation attribute of the graphic object, the deformation attribute being related to how the graphic object is deformed as a position of the arbitrary point changes, and a deformation unit configured to deform, when the position specifying unit has specified the pre-change position and the post-change position the graphic object in accordance with the pre-change position, the post-change position, and the attribute specified by the attribute specifying unit.
