Figure processing method

摘要

A figure pattern is processed by modifying a point array that forms the figure pattern. The modification may include moving the points of the array, inserting points into the array, deleting points of the array, and changing the attributes of the points or the point array. According to one arrangement, a sample point of an array forming the outline of a figure pattern is designated for deletion and a figure pattern corresponding to the sample point array is generated on the basis of an attribute of sample points adjacent to the sample point designated for deletion.
