Operator Reference
set_shape (Operator)
set_shape — Define the region output shape.
Signature
set_shape( : : WindowHandle, Shape : )
Description
set_shape defines the shape for region output. It is
only valid for the window with the logical window number
WindowHandle. The output shape is used by
disp_region. The available shapes can be queried with
query_shape.
Available modes:
- 'original':
The shape is displayed unchanged. Nevertheless modifications via parameters like
set_line_widthcan take place. This is also true for all other modes.- 'outer_circle':
Each region is displayed by the smallest surrounding circle. (See
smallest_circle.)- 'inner_circle':
Each region is displayed by the largest included circle. (See
inner_circle.)- 'ellipse':
Each region is displayed by an ellipse with the same moments and orientation (See
elliptic_axis.)- 'rectangle1':
Each region is displayed by the smallest surrounding rectangle parallel to the coordinate axes. (See
smallest_rectangle1.)- 'rectangle2':
Each region is displayed by the smallest surrounding rectangle. (See
smallest_rectangle2.)- 'convex':
Each region is displayed by its convex hull (See
convexity.)- 'icon':
Each region is displayed by the icon set with
set_iconin the center of gravity.
Attention
Caution is advised for gray value output operators with output parameter settings that use region output.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
Parameters
WindowHandle (input_control) window → (handle)
Window handle.
Shape (input_control) string → (string)
Region output mode.
Default: 'original'
List of values: 'convex', 'ellipse', 'icon', 'inner_circle', 'original', 'outer_circle', 'rectangle1', 'rectangle2'
Example (HDevelop)
read_image(Image,'fabrik') regiongrowing(Image,Seg,5,5,6,100) set_colored(WindowHandle,12) set_shape(WindowHandle,'rectangle2') disp_region(Seg,WindowHandle)
Result
set_shape returns 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
if the parameter is correct and
the window is valid. Otherwise an exception is raised.
