Overlaid graphical user interface and method for image processing
First Claim
1. A graphical user interface embodied on a computer-readable medium for execution on a computer for image processing of a digital image, the digital image comprising individual pixels each having coordinates within the digital image and each pixel having image characteristics, the graphical user interface comprising:
- a graphical icon overlaid on the digital image at the coordinates of one or more pixels, where the image characteristics of the one or more pixels are used as inputs for image processing of the digital image; and
a menu overlaid on the digital image and graphically linked to the graphical icon, to receive user input for image processing of the digital image.

Abstract
A graphical user interface for execution on a computer for image processing of a digital image, and method, in which an input interface is overlaid on the digital image and visually connected to the coordinates of one or more pixels to be processed. A graphical icon, such as a circle, may be overlaid on the neighborhood of the pixels to be processed. The input interface may comprise one or more sliders, to receive user input of values, such as weights, to be used for image processing of the one or more pixels.

13. In a computer system having a graphical user interface including a display, a selection device, and an input interface comprising one or more input objects for receiving user input, a method for receiving user input for image processing of a digital image comprising individual pixels each having coordinates within the digital image and each pixel having image characteristics, the method comprising:
-
retrieving one or more input entries from the input interface, each of the one or more input entries representing an input value to be used for image processing of the digital image; displaying the input interface overlaid on the digital image; displaying a visual link overlaid on the digital image, from the input interface to the neighborhood of one or more pixels of the digital image, where the image characteristics of the one or more pixels are used as inputs for image processing of the digital image; receiving an input signal indicative of the selection of an input value; and in response to the input signal, processing the one or more pixels of the digital image as a function of the received input value. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
