SearchWinType Property

Applies To
Vision Objects: Blob, ColorMatch, Contour, Correlation, DefectFinder, Geometric, ImageOp, OCR

Description
Sets / returns the search window type.

Usage

VGet  Sequence.Object.SearchWinType, var
VSet  Sequence.Object.SearchWinType, value

Sequence

String variable containing a sequence name.

Object

Name of an object or string variable containing an object name. The object must exist in the specified sequence.

var

Integer variable that will contain the value of the property.

value

Integer value or expression for the new value of the property.

Values
The following integer values are used to specify the search window type:

• 1 - Rectangle
  • Vision constant: VISION_WINTYPE_RECTANGLE
• 2 - RotatedRectangle
  • Vision constant: VISION_WINTYPE_ROTATEDRECT
• 3 - Circle
  • Vision constant: VISION_WINTYPE_CIRCLE
• 4 - Arc
  • Vision constant: VISION_WINTYPE_ARC
• 9 - Polygon
  • Vision constant: VISION_WINTYPE_POLYGON

Remarks
Sets and returns the search window type. Available values are as follows:

• 1 - Rectangle: Rectangular search window that cannot be rotated.
• 2 - RotatedRectangle: Rectangular search window that can be rotated.
• 3 - Circle: Circular search window
• 4 - Arc: Arc search window
• 9 - Polygon: A twelve-sided polygon search window.

Only Blob, Correlation, Geometric, and OCR objects can set “4 - Arc”.

Only Blob, Correlation, and Geometric objects can set “9 - Polygon”.

For OCR, only “1 - Rectangle” and “4 - Arc” can be set.

When the search window type is set to “4 - Arc”, SearchWinAngleStart, SearchWinAngleEnd, SearchWinRadiusInner, and SearchWinRadiusOuter properties are available. Instead, SearchWinHeight, SearchWinLeft, SearchWinTop, and SearchWinWidth properties are no longer available.
