DISPLAY MENU/CHART KEY

摘要

AT9-83-010 A display menu/chart key is provided in a word processing system to allow a system operator to toggle back and forth between the display of a menu used to define a graphics image and the graphics image to the extent that the graphics image has been defined by the menu. This provides an easy interface that allows the operator to visually check and revise the definition of a graphics image such as a bar, line or pie chart. By using this key, the operator can quickly see how changing a menu item will cause the chart to be changed and the particular portion of the chart that will change. When the key is pressed while a chart is being displayed, the last menu being processed will again be displayed.
