Operator Reference
get_text_object (Operator)
get_text_object
— Query an iconic value of a text segmentation result.
Signature
get_text_object( : Characters : TextResultID, ResultName : )
Description
get_text_object
queries the iconic result ResultName
of
TextResultID
returned by find_text
. The possible parameter
values for ResultName
differ, depending on the text model used
within the text segmentation process of find_text
.
In the following, first the possible parameter values for text models
with Mode
= 'auto' are listed, and then those for
text models with Mode
= 'manual' .
The following results can be queried:
-
Result objects for text segmentation with text models with
Mode
= 'auto'For each polarity, the text lines are independently sorted from top to bottom and left to right. The character within the text lines are sorted from left to right.
- 'all_lines' :
-
Returns all characters in all segmented text lines.
- ['line', LineIndex] :
-
Returns all characters within the text line specified by LineIndex. For example, ['line', 0] returns the first line.
- ['element', Index] :
-
Returns the character at position Index. For example, ['element', 0] returns the first character.
-
Result objects for text segmentation with text models with
Mode
= 'manual'- 'manual_all_lines' :
-
Returns all characters in all segmented text lines. The text lines are sorted from top to bottom and left to right. The characters within the text lines are sorted from left to right.
- ['manual_line', Index] :
-
Returns all characters within the text line specified by Index (e.g., ['manual_line',0] to return the first line). The characters within the text line are sorted from left to right.
If 'manual_persistence' was activated for the text model used to create
TextResultID
, the following additional value can be queried:- 'manual_compensated_image' :
-
the enhanced image used for segmentation.
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
Characters
(output_object) object(-array) →
object
Returned result.
TextResultID
(input_control) text_result →
(handle)
Text result.
ResultName
(input_control) string(-array) →
(string / integer)
Name of the result to be returned.
Default: 'all_lines'
List of values: 'all_lines' , 'element' , 'line' , 'manual_all_lines' , 'manual_compensated_image' , 'manual_line'
Example (HDevelop)
read_image (Image, 'numbers_scale') create_text_model_reader ('auto', 'Document_Rej.omc', TextModel) * Optionally specify text properties set_text_model_param (TextModel, 'min_char_height', 20) find_text (Image, TextModel, TextResultID) * Return character regions and corresponding classification results get_text_object (Characters, TextResultID, 'all_lines') get_text_result (TextResultID, 'class', Class)
Result
If the parameters are valid, the operator
get_text_object
returns the value 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
. If
necessary, an exception is raised.
