In Figure 7.37, however, the orientation of the two objects precludes any
overlap of the objects’ bounding boxes in either the vertical or the horizontal
direction. Thus, neither “

Near

” or “

NearBox

” values are calculated when

Up

,” “

Down

,” “

Left

,” or “

Right

” directions are selected, regardless of

which object is picked as the “target.” In this example “

Overall

” was

selected, and only the “

Near

” value (the distance between centroids) is

calculated as 145.8 pixels.

Figure 7.37 Example: No Overlap of Objects’ Bounding Boxes

NOTE: Range limits cannot be set directly for the two nearest neighbor
values, as they can for contour measurement values. If, however, any range
limits are required for the “

Near

” or “

NearBox

” values, they can be

implemented in a math tool formula.

Pick Target Panel

When you pick the

button in the

Target

panel, the

Pick Target

panel appears, as shown by the example in Figure 7.38 (page 7–44).

The left column in this panel lists all of the contour measurement functions,
and the right column displays the measurement results values for these
measurement functions. (Initially, these values are all zero.)
