The Morphology Erode tool performs a standard erosion on the white parts of an image. (See “Morphology”
on page 3-52 for more details.)
New Image
In the Image Filtering Drawer
The New Image tool creates a new image based on the size and width properties each time it runs. The new
image is filled with a user-defined greyscale value. The tool does not save the image with the vision program
file or alter other images. Its main use is to create a blank image to fill with the Pixel Fill tool.
Pixel Fill
In the Image Filtering Drawer
The Pixel Fill tool fills portions of a greyscale image with a specified grey level. The Find Shape List
defines the area to be filled. The area is filled with the grey level from black (zero) to white (100) specified
in the Fill Value property. The filled area appears on the output image.
