fill

fill ( integer Input, integer Output [, integer Mode =0 ] )

Use this function to fill out background holes in objects in a multiphase image or selection. The function uses a 4-connected "city-block" neighborhood for background identification.

Parameters

Input

An integer between 1 and 116 specifying the input image frame number. Values in the range of 100-116 correspond to hidden frames.

Output

An integer between 1 and 116 specifying the output image frame number. Values in the range of 100-116 correspond to hidden frames.

Mode

An enumerated integer that describes the mode in which the function operates. Must be one of the following values:

FALSE=0 – uses the algorithm optimized for binary images. Selecting this mode for multiphase images with objects of different phases enclosed into each other may result in loosing the original phase information.

TRUE=1 – uses the algorithm optimized for multiphase images with parent-child relations between objects of different phases.

Error flags

ERR_OK

The flag set if successful.

ERR_FAILED

The flag set if failed.

Example

This set of statements binarizes a sample image and fills out the holes in objects.

setCurDir ("samples")

loadIm(1,"sample25.IWD")

threshold(1,1,M_PRESET,175.,255.,TRUE,FALSE)

fill(1,2)
