Settings:
Display object or image measurements?
- Object displays measurements made on
objects.
- Image displays a single measurement made
on an image.
Select the input objects
(Used only when displaying object measurements)
Choose the name of objects identified by some previous
module (such as IdentifyPrimaryObjects or
IdentifySecondaryObjects).
Measurement to display
Choose the measurement to display. This will be a measurement
made by some previous module on either the whole image (if
displaying a single image measurement) or on the objects you
selected.
Select the image on which to display the measurements
Choose the image to be displayed behind the measurements.
This can be any image created or loaded by a previous module.
If you have chosen not to display the background image, the image
will only be used to determine the dimensions of the displayed image
Text color
This is the color that will be used when displaying the text.
Name the output image that has the measurements displayed
The name that will be given to the image with
the measurements superimposed. You can use this name to refer to the image in
subsequent modules (such as SaveImages).
Image elements to save
This setting controls the level of annotation on the image:
- Image: Saves the image with the overlaid measurement annotations.
- Axes: Adds axes with tick marks and image coordinates.
- Figure: Adds a title and other decorations.
Annotation offset (in pixels)
Add a pixel offset to the measurement. Normally, the text is
placed at the object (or image) center, which can obscure relevant features of
the object. This setting adds a specified offset to the text, in a random
direction.
Display mode
(Used only when displaying object measurements)
Choose how to display the measurement information. If you choose
Text, DisplayDataOnImage will display the numeric
value on top of each object. If you choose Color,
DisplayDataOnImage will convert the image to grayscale, if
necessary, and display the portion of the image within each object
using a hue that indicates the measurement value relative to
the other objects in the set using the default color map.
Color map
(Used only when displaying object measurements)
This is the color map used as the color gradient for coloring the
objects by their measurement values.
Display background image?
Choose whether or not to display the measurements on
a background image. Usually, you will want to see the image
context for the measurements, but it may be useful to save
just the overlay of the text measurements and composite the
overlay image and the original image later. Choose "Yes" to
display the measurements on top of a background image or "No"
to display the measurements on a black background.
