First Claim
Patent Images
1. A digital image processing device, comprising:
- a touch-screen display interface enabling touch control to a user of the image processing device while displaying image data; and
an interface processor to identify a single touch gesture of the user applied to a surface of the touch-screen display, the single touch gesture designating an area of the displayed image data as a focal center of an image zoom operation.

Abstract
A digital image processing device is provided that improves operability when performing a scaling up/scaling down operation. Based on a single trajectory when a touch position on a display screen of a display portion moves, a center point and ratio used to scale up or scale down the image are set. In this way, for example, it is possible to scale up and scale down the image by an easy touch operation of simply tracing the trajectory with a single finger (namely, by a single-touch operation).
