Information processing apparatus and image processing parameter editing method with limiting of editing processing based on extracted creator information

摘要

An information processing apparatus for editing an image processing parameter available in image processing by an image sensing apparatus. Creator information set by a creator of the image processing parameter, attached to the image processing parameter, is extracted. In accordance with the extracted creator information, editing processing to generate a new image processing parameter by editing the image processing parameter is limited.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus for editing an image processing parameter created by a creator, stored in a memory and available in image processing to a third party other than the creator, comprising:
an extraction unit adapted to extract creator information set by a creator of said image processing parameter and attached to said image processing parameter; an edition unit adapted to edit said image processing parameter stored in the memory thereby generate a new image processing parameter; a limitation unit adapted to limit editing processing of said image processing parameter by said edition unit for the third party; and a designation unit adapted to designate limitations regarding the editing processing to said limitation unit based on the creator information extracted by said extraction unit, wherein the creator information includes information which indicates whether editing processing of said image processing parameter by the third party is permitted or not.
