摘要:
A method for emphasizing differences in graphical appearances between an original document and a modified document using annotations with outer and inner boundaries is disclosed. A first bitmap of the modified document and a second bitmap of the original document are received. A set of difference points is derived from a comparison of the first bitmap and the second bitmap. Those difference points are representative of coordinates within the first and second bitmaps having pixel value differences exceeding a predetermined threshold. An outer boundary and an inner boundary of the difference points is derived, then an annotation defined by an area between the outer boundary and the inner boundary is generated.

A method for emphasizing differences in graphical appearances between an original document and a modified document is provided in accordance with an aspect of the present invention. The method includes the step of receiving a first bitmap of the modified document, and a second bitmap of the original document. The method includes deriving a set of difference points based upon a comparison of the first bitmap and the second bitmap. The method includes a step of superposing a spatial index onto the set of difference points, and generating polygon vertices from a plurality of adjacent elements of index. Each of the elements has a predetermined density of difference points. The method concludes with generating an annotation from the polygon vertices.

A method for aligning a modified document and an original document is provided according to an aspect of the present invention. The method includes a step of receiving a first bitmap representative of the modified document, including a first anchor. Additionally, a second bitmap representative of the original document including a second anchor is received. The method also includes the step of deriving a set of first vertex coordinates of the first anchor, and a set of second vertex coordinates of the second anchor. The method further includes the step of transforming the first bitmap to a common reference based upon the first set of vertex coordinates, and the step of transforming the second bitmap to the common reference based upon the second set of vertex coordinates.

摘要:
An annotation method for a three-dimensional model is disclosed. A first set of data representative of a three-dimensional model is stored in a computer memory. A second set of data representative of an annotation is also stored in the computer memory. The annotation is associated with a first spatial location on the three-dimensional model and a first display view. The three-dimensional model and a first graphical representation of the annotation is displayed according to the first display view, with the annotation being positioned as specified by the associated first spatial location. The displaying of the three-dimensional model is modified to a second display view different from the first display view. The annotation is removed from the display window, and an annotation indicator associated with the annotation is displayed. The annotation indicator is visible independent of any display view of the three-dimensional model.

A method of processing annotations is provided in accordance with an aspect of the present invention. The method includes the step of displaying in a workspace a document and a first visual representation of the annotations, which are defined by properties. The method includes the step of displaying in a markup window a catalog of the annotations that include values of the properties of the annotations. The method includes the step of sorting the catalog according to a chosen one of the properties. The method includes deriving a second visual representation of a first one of the annotations in response to an input modifying the value of a first one of the properties thereof in the catalog. The difference between the first of visual representation and the second visual representation of the first one of the annotations may be related to the first one of the properties.
