Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of an optional image processing method according to an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0038] Step S101: During the use of HMI configuration software, determine the original image to be processed. This can be done by importing a user-prepared image from outside the image library or by selecting an image from the image library.

[0039] Step S102: Customize the original image to obtain the target image used in the engineering system, which is a system built in HMI configuration software.

[0040] For example: copying the original image; cropping the original image; editing at least one of the following: shape, size, border style, background style, and overlay style of the original image; deleting the original image.

[0041] After custom editing the original image to obtain the target image used in the engineering system, a copy of the image is exported based on the target image generated by the custom editing. This copy can then be imported and used in other versions of configuration software or projects. When exporting the image copy, the image is compressed and encrypted to reduce space usage and ensure image security. When importing into other versions of configuration software, it needs to be decrypted.

[0042] Optionally, the HMI configuration software's library can be expanded during the use of the HMI configuration software:

[0043] 1) When the HMI configuration software's library extension function is triggered, identify the library-related information of other versions of configuration software installed on the computer besides the HMI configuration software version: Traverse the computer's registry, filter all versions of configuration software according to the keywords (such as name, code, etc.) of the configuration software names in the preset configuration software set (which stores information about various configuration software); exclude the HMI configuration software version from all versions of configuration software to obtain other versions of configuration software; search for the corresponding version's library-related information in the installation path of other versions of configuration software.

[0044] 2) Visualize the relevant information of the image library to facilitate users' selection of image library versions and / or image groups; import the user-selected image library versions and / or image groups into the HMI configuration software: if the user-selected image library version has an export file, directly decrypt the export file and import it into the HMI configuration software (by default, exported files are encrypted, so decryption will be performed here); if the user-selected image library version does not have an export file, directly export the user-selected image library version from the corresponding configuration software (without encryption) and import it into the HMI configuration software.

[0045] By following the steps above, the original image to be processed is determined during the use of HMI configuration software. The original image is then customized and edited to obtain the target image used in the engineering system. In this way, users can customize and edit the image according to their own needs and then use the customized image, instead of only being able to select existing images from the library in related technologies. This solves the technical problem of poor flexibility in image use in HMI configuration software.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] Considering both user operational freedom and image library richness, this application proposes a configurable extension scheme for HMI configuration software, enabling users to have greater flexibility in image selection and processing when building projects using configuration software. As an optional embodiment, the technical solution of this application is further detailed below with reference to specific implementation methods:

[0048] This application enables users to customize and configure library extensions in HMI configuration software, and allows the HMI configuration software to handle image editing operations and cross-version integration of the library.

[0049] like Figure 2 The image shown is a custom editing scheme. When building a project using configuration software, you often need images related to the engineering field. For example, the energy storage system interface needs images of batteries. There are many styles of batteries, but they all have similar shapes. Therefore, you can get the desired custom battery image by fine-tuning the default battery image. If you want to use a previously created battery image in a new project, you can export the previously stored image for use in the current project.

[0050] Before setting up a project, users can add the necessary images to their image library. During the setup process, if modifications are needed, users can open the library, find the corresponding images, and customize them. If different styles of images with similar backgrounds need to be edited, multiple copies can be created. If an image in the library is not frequently used, it can be deleted.

[0051] Custom editing includes basic operations such as copying, editing, cropping, and deleting. The editing content mainly involves: shape, size, border style (color, thickness, shape (straight line, polyline, wave)), background style (color, transparency, texture), overlay style (adding graphics, setting the overlay), etc.

[0052] Images generated after custom editing can be exported as copies. During the export process, images can be compressed and encrypted to reduce their size and ensure file security. They can then be imported into other versions or projects, with decryption processing performed during the import process.

[0053] Configurable extended gallery solutions, such as Figure 3 As shown, if you need to import gallery images from other versions into the current configuration, cross-version integration is required:

[0054] When a user uses the gallery extension function in the current configuration, the program will automatically identify the paths of other versions of configuration software installed on the computer and their gallery information (when using the gallery extension, it triggers a traversal of the computer registry, filters all versions of configuration software based on keywords of the configuration software name, obtains their installation paths, and finds the gallery information of the corresponding version under their installation paths), and transmits this information to the configuration extension gallery display interface in a graphical manner. This means that other version information obtained during the automatic identification process, such as version number, installation path, gallery configuration path, etc., are encapsulated into objects, and these objects are assigned to the view model of the configuration extension gallery display interface. This model then presents this information to the user in a graphical display manner.

[0055] Next, users need to configure the extended gallery display interface, such as selecting the version they want to extend, grouping the gallery in the selected version to achieve partial gallery merging to avoid redundancy or duplication caused by merging all gallery galleries, and selecting gallery groups to merge, etc.

[0056] Finally, the HMI configuration software performs matching processing. If other versions have exported files, the export process is omitted and the files are directly decrypted and imported. Then, the files are exported (other versions) and imported (current version) in batches. There is no compression or encryption / decryption processing during the batch process, thereby optimizing the performance of the image library fusion processing. Ultimately, this enables the extended function of importing other versions of the image library that the current image library needs.

[0057] In the technical solution of this application, images in the image library can be customized and edited within the configuration software; different versions of the image library can be expanded through configuration. This achieves cross-version integration of the image library and customized editing of its content. The configuration-based expansion method for the image library in this application makes user operations in image selection and processing more flexible.

[0058] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the foregoing method embodiments are all described as a series of actions. However, those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the described order of actions, as some steps may be performed in other orders or simultaneously according to this application. Furthermore, those skilled in the art should also understand that the embodiments described in the specification are preferred embodiments, and the actions and modules involved are not necessarily essential to this application.

Of course, they can also be implemented by hardware, but in many cases the former is a better implementation method.

This computer software product is stored in a storage medium (such as ROM / RAM, magnetic disk, optical disk) and includes several instructions to cause a terminal device (which may be a mobile phone, computer, server, or network device, etc.) to execute the methods of the various embodiments of this application.

[0067] Optionally, the editing unit is also used to: after custom editing the original image to obtain the target image used in the engineering system, export a copy of the image based on the target image generated after custom editing, so as to import and use it in other versions of configuration software or projects. When exporting the image copy, the image is compressed and encrypted to reduce the space occupied and ensure the image security. When importing into other versions of configuration software, it needs to be decrypted.

[0068] Optionally, the editing unit is also used to: copy the original image; crop the original image; edit at least one of the original image's shape, size, border style, background style, and overlay style; and delete the original image.

[0069] Through the modules described above, the original image to be processed is determined during the use of HMI configuration software.

In this way, users can customize and edit the image according to their own needs and then use the customized image, instead of only being able to select existing images from the library in related technologies.
