gen_region_points — Store individual pixels as image region.
The operator gen_region_points creates a region described by a number
of pixels. The pixels do not have to be stored in a fixed
order, but the best runtime behavior is obtained when the pixels are
stored in ascending order. The order is as follows:
The indicated coordinates stand for two consecutive pixels in the tupel.
Region (output_object) region → object
Created region.
Rows (input_control) coordinates.y(-array) → (integer / real)
Lines of the pixels in the region.
Default value: 100
Suggested values: 0, 10, 30, 50, 100, 200, 300, 500
Typical range of values:
Rows
(lin)
Minimum increment: 1
Recommended increment: 1
Columns (input_control) coordinates.x(-array) → (integer / real)
Columns of the pixels in the region.
Number of elements: Columns == Rows
Default value: 100
Suggested values: 0, 10, 30, 50, 100, 200, 300, 500
Typical range of values:
Columns
(lin)
Minimum increment: 1
Recommended increment: 1
F shall be the number of pixels. If the pixels are sorted in ascending order the runtime complexity is: O(F), otherwise O(log(F)*F).
The operator gen_region_points returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE) if the pixels
are located within the image format.
Otherwise an exception is raised.
The clipping according to the current image format is set via the
operator set_system('clip_region',<'true'/'false'>).
If an empty region is created (by the clipping or by an empty input)
the operator
set_system('store_empty_region',<'true'/'false'>) determines
whether the region is returned or an empty object tuple.
