DRAWING DEVICE
First Claim
1. A drawing device comprising:
- a display device having an image display area;
a sensor arranged in a superimposed relationship with the image display area of the display device and having an indicator operation detection area sized so as to detect indicator operations in the image display area of the display device;
a memory adapted to store drawing information; and
a control circuit that renders a drawing in the image display area of the display device based on the drawing information stored in the memory, andthe control circuit causing a test drawing area and a parameter setting area to be displayed superimposed on the drawing in the image display area of the display device in response to a detection, by the sensor, of an indication operation by the indicator, the test drawing area enabling a drawing operation to be performed using the indicator, the parameter setting area enabling changing of parameters of drawing information generated by the drawing operation in the test drawing area using the indicator,the control circuit causing the test drawing area to be displayed in a visually identifiable manner in the image display area of the display device and causing the test drawing area to be displayed transparently with a portion of the drawing in the image display area of the display device appearing through the test drawing area.

Abstract
A drawing device includes a sensor arranged in a superimposed relationship with a display device and having an indicator operation detection area sized to detect indictor operations in the image display area of the display device; a memory that stores drawing information; and a control circuit that renders a drawing in the image display area of the display device based on the drawing information stored in the memory. The control circuit causes a test drawing area and a parameter setting area to be displayed superimposed on the drawing image that is displayed in response to a detection, by the sensor, of an indication operation by the indicator, the test drawing area enabling a drawing operation to be performed using the indicator, the parameter setting area enabling changes to parameters of the drawing information generated by the drawing operation in the test drawing area using the indicator. The control circuit causes the test drawing area to be displayed transparently with a portion of the drawing appearing through the test drawing area.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program product for a drawing device, the drawing device including
a display device having an image display area, a sensor arranged in a superimposed relationship with the image display area of the display device and having an indicator operation detection area sized to detect indictor operations in the image display area of the display device, and a memory that stores drawing information; -
the computer program product causing; the drawing device to render a drawing in the image display area of the display device based on the drawing information stored in the memory; the drawing device to display a test drawing area and a parameter setting area superimposed on the drawing in the image display area of the display device in response to a detection, by the sensor, of an indication operation by the indicator;
the test drawing area drawing operation to be performed using the indicator;
the parameter setting area enabling changes to parameters of drawing information generated by the drawing operation in the test drawing area using the indicator; andthe drawing device to display the test drawing area in a visually identifiable manner in the image display area of the display device and displaying the test drawing area transparently with a portion of the drawing in the image display area of the display appearing through the test drawing area.
