LAYOUT EDITING PROCESSING METHOD, POSITIONING METHOD, DEVICES THEREOF AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To also move a replacement object by following up movement of a replaced object on a base version even when the replaced object is moved in layout editing for creating a replacement version by performing replacement for the unit of an object on the base version.SOLUTION: A differential between position coordinates of a replaced base version object and position coordinates of a replacement version object is calculated as relative coordinates and the calculated relative coordinates are stored. When the position coordinates of the replaced base version object are changed, on the basis of the relative coordinates and position coordinates of the replaced base version object after the change, position coordinates of the replacement version object are calculated.
