Scaling Range

Scaling Range allows you to set a range from a low of 0.8 to a high of 1.2. In Run mode, this will enable matches to

occur even with slight variations in shape from the reference shape.

Results

The Results field returns the following:
• Total number of shapes above the minimum acceptance level.
• Position of each shape's center. The origin (0,0) is the upper-left corner of the screen.

7.3.6 Line Detect Tool

The Line Detect tool finds a single, straight-line segment. The tool works by first finding many edge points along the

transitions between bright and dark pixels and then fitting a line to some or all of those points. I can measure the length

of a straight edge, find damage or flaws along an edge or offer a way to measure between a straight line and other

points or lines in the image.
Place the Region of Interest (ROI) by clicking to one side of the line you wish to find and then dragging the cursor

perpendicularly across that line before releasing. Adjust the width of the ROI by dragging either side.

Usage

• Measure the height and width of a part
• Measure the height of a needle
• Measure the deflection of an automotive gauge
• Detect the edge of a web
• Verify that a bottle cap is on completely
• Find chips, spurs, or other flaws along a straight edge
• Measure the angle between two lines
