Operator Reference
get_region_convex (Operator)
get_region_convex
— Access convex hull as contour.
Signature
Description
The operator get_region_convex
returns the convex hull of a region
as polygon. The polygon is the minimum result
of line (Rows
) and column coordinates (Columns
)
describing the hull of the region. The polygon pixels lie
on the region.
The polygon starts at the smallest line number; in this line at the
pixel with the largest column index.
The rotation direction is clockwise. The first pixel of the polygon
is identical with the last.
The operator get_region_convex
returns the coordinates in the form
of tuples. An empty region is passed as empty tuple.
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
