  GraphROI GraphROI

  Graphing dialog; Multiple ROIs

  • Up to 8 ROIs of any type can be set.

  • There is an 8-way radio button on the Mouse Selection Area dialog (click on the Mouse Selection bar on the Info panel) to select and define the ROIs.

    

  • One ROI is active at a time, and that ROI drives the Analisys Graph, Noise Measurement, etc.

  • The active ROI can be changed on the Mouse Selection Area dialog, or by clicking on the ROI outline in the video window.

  • Also, how the mouse interacts with the ROIs on the video window has been changed.
    
    • To move an ROI, you must click on its line. Clicking away from an ROI line will drag the image (that is, you can now drag the image without locking the selection).
    • A Rectangle ROI can now be resized by dragging a corner or edge. Also, Rectangle ROIs are drawn as rectangles rather than as two sets of parallel lines, so the image is less cluttered when there are multiple of them.
  • ROIs can also be set programmatically with Python, devware.set_active_mouse_sel(index) and then devware.set_mouse_selection(...).

• Anchor
  GraphStats GraphStats

  Graphing dialog; image stats added
  • Mean, Max, and Standard deviation can be displayed for Intensity and Histogram; right-click and select "Intensity Statistics" or "Histogram Statistics", respectively.
