Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a display controller that displays on a display a drawing that expresses a meaning of target data, and an extracting unit that extracts partial data that is at least part of the target data, the partial data being used to express a specific portion if the specific portion is specified as part or whole of the drawing.

Claims (28)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor, configured to:

generate and display on a display a drawing that expresses a meaning of target data; and

extract partial data that is at least part of the target data used to express a specific portion, which is in part or in whole of the drawing, in response to the specific portion being specified,

wherein the processor is configured to display the drawing including an expression of additional information that is not included in the target data, and not extract the additional information as the partial data,

wherein if the drawing generated in accordance with a remaining portion of the target data with the partial data removed therefrom is displayed after the drawing including the expression of the additional information is displayed, the processor is configured to display a screen prompting a user to edit the additional information on the display.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to display a plurality of drawings expressing meanings of a plurality of meaning segments of the target data, and

extract the partial data that has been used to express the drawing that is specified to be the specific portion, from among the drawings.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the drawing comprises one or more elements, and

wherein if the element is specified to be the specific portion, the processor is configured to extract the partial data that has been used to express the specified element.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein if the element commonly included in the drawings is specified to be the specific portion, the processor is configured to extract the partial data used to express the specified element from each of the meaning segments corresponding to the drawings including the specified element.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein if the partial data is extracted, the processor is configured to display the drawing that has been generated in accordance with a remaining portion of the target data as a result of removing the partial data.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein if the drawings expressing the meanings of the meaning segments of the target data are displayed, part or whole of one of the drawings is specified to be the specific portion, and the partial data corresponding to the specific portion is extracted, the processor is configured to display the drawing that has been generated in accordance with a remaining portion of the meaning segment corresponding to the drawing including the specific portion with the partial data removed.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to display the drawing that has been re-generated in response to meanings of meaning segments other than the meaning segment, the meaning of the other meaning segments changing by removing the partial data from the meaning segment corresponding to the drawing containing the specific portion.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the other meaning segments from which the drawing is generated is selectable by a user.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the processor is configured to display the drawing that has been re-generated in response to the changed meanings of the other meaning segments, with the meanings of the other meaning segments changing in concert with a change in the meaning of the meaning segment with the partial data removed therefrom.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to extract the partial data by moving the specific portion from inside a display region of the drawing to outside the display region on the display.

11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the processor is configured to display the partial data at a location of a destination of the specific portion.

12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein if the partial data is extracted after the drawing including the expression of the additional information is displayed, the processor is configured to display, without modifying the expression of the additional information, the drawing that has been generated in accordance with a remaining portion of the target data with the partial data removed therefrom.

13. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein if the partial data is extracted after the drawing including the expression of the additional information is displayed, the processor is configured to display the drawing that has been generated in accordance with a remaining portion of the target data with the partial data removed therefrom, and that does not include the expression of the additional information.

14. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the target data is different from the partial data in a data format.

15. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to receive a voice instruction specifying the specific portion.

16. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to output a notification concerning an appearing object if the appearing object is affected in meaning by removing the partial data when the drawing is generated by extracting the partial data, and the appearing object in the target data is expressed by the drawing.

17. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for processing information, the process comprising:

generating and displaying on a display a drawing that expresses a meaning of target data; and

extracting partial data that is at least part of the target data used to express a specific portion, which is in part or in whole of the drawing, in response to the specific portion being specified,

wherein the drawing including an expression of additional information that is not included in the target data is displayed, and the additional information is not extracted as the partial data,

wherein if the drawing generated in accordance with a remaining portion of the target data with the partial data removed therefrom is displayed after the drawing including the expression of the additional information is displayed, a screen prompting a user to edit the additional information is displayed on the display.
