Patent ID: 8364294

Claim:
A method for editing signal data that represents a signal, the method comprising: analyzing digital signal data to identify a plurality of target areas that satisfy selection criteria; after analyzing the digital signal data and prior to modifying the digital signal data, displaying a user interface that includes a list of list entries; wherein each list entry in the list of list entries corresponds to a target area in the plurality of target areas; wherein, for each target area of the plurality of target areas, the list entry that corresponds to the target area indicates at least one of: (1) whether the target area has been modified, wherein one list entry in the list indicates that the corresponding target area has been modified and another list entry in the list indicates that the corresponding target area has not been modified, or (2) what type of problem has been identified for the target area, wherein one list entry in the list identifies a first type of problem and another list entry in the list identifies a second type of problem that is different than the first type of problem; receiving first input that selects a subset of the list entries in the list; after receiving the first input that selects the subset of the list entries in the list, receiving second input that specifies performance of an editing operation; and in response to receiving the second input that specifies performance of the editing operation, performing the editing operation on one or more target areas that correspond to the subset of the list entries in the list; wherein the method is performed by one or more computing devices.
