A SYSTEM FOR DISPLAYING AN IMAGE IN EACH OF A PLURALITY OF DISPLAY AREAS ADJACENTLY POSITIONED IN A ROW DIRECTION ON A DISPLAY SCREEN HAVING A PLURALITY OF DISPLAY ROWS

摘要

A method for displaying images in each of plural adjacent areas on a display screen (10) having a plurality of display rows uses stored boundary data to freely define a boundary between adjacent areas in row direction and to switch the image display upon crossing the boundary. In a system for implementing the method, the images to be displayed are stored in an image information storage (20), which is addressed by start addresses contained in a row information storage (40; 50) to read out the information of various images to be displayed in each display row. A boundary information storage (30) contains the boundary data for each display row, which data is loaded into a boundary indication means (60) that controls an address generation means (70) for the image information storage to switch the start address received from the row information storage (40; 50) to a new image when a boundary is crossed.
