Image Processing for Unified Multi-Album Double-Page Editing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for creating albums fail to maintain unity among multiple users' albums when editing a common double-page spread, leading to inconsistencies.
Innovation Solution
A computer-readable storage medium that stores a program to function as an editing unit, applying attributes of a common double-page spread to multiple albums, ensuring unity by including a common double-page spread with individual attributes in each album.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If editing of a common double-page spread is performed in one person's album, then the individual album can be customized, but unity with other persons' albums is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments double-page spread attributes into two distinct types: common attributes that apply to all albums and individual attributes that apply only to specific albums. This segmentation allows the system to maintain unity through common attributes while enabling customization through individual attributes, directly resolving the contradiction between adaptability and stability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by allowing different attribute types to have different scopes of application. Common double-page spread attributes maintain uniformity across all albums (global quality), while individual double-page spread attributes provide localized customization for specific albums. This enables simultaneous maintenance of overall unity and local adaptability.
2Stability of the object's composition
If common double-page spread attributes are applied to all albums, then unity is maintained, but individual customization is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides double-page spread attributes into common and individual categories, allowing the system to apply uniform attributes where unity is needed while permitting individual attribute modifications where customization is desired. This segmentation enables selective application of unity and adaptability principles.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal attribute system where common double-page spread attributes serve all albums uniformly, while individual attributes provide album-specific variations. This multi-functional attribute structure allows the same double-page spread to maintain consistency across albums while accommodating individual customization needs.
3Adaptability or versatility
If separate editing is performed for each album, then individual customization is achieved, but work efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent establishes common double-page spread attributes in advance that automatically apply to all albums, eliminating the need to perform the same editing operations separately for each album. This preliminary action of setting common attributes improves productivity while still allowing individual customization through the individual attribute mechanism.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the editing operations for multiple albums by allowing changes to common double-page spread attributes to be applied across all albums simultaneously. This combining of editing operations significantly improves productivity while the individual attribute system preserves the ability to customize specific albums when needed.

AI summary
An object of the present disclosure is to maintain unity of a plurality of albums in a case where editing of a common double-page spread is performed in one person's album. A program is provided which causes a computer to function as an editing unit configured to edit a plurality of albums. Attributes of double-page spreads in the plurality of albums include an attribute of a common double-page spread common to all of the albums and an attribute of an individual double-page spread in each of the albums. The editing unit applies a content of a result of editing performed on a common double-page spread in a predetermined album among the plurality of albums to the album other than the predetermined album.
