AlignLine

Moves a line from a local coordinate system to the absolute one.

Name	Type	Description
inLine	Line2D
inAlignment	CoordinateSystem2D	Coordinate system to align to
inInverse	Bool	Switches to the inverse transform
outAlignedLine	Line2D

Applications

Required when there is a line defined in a local coordinate system, but the next image-related filter in the program does not have any inAlignment input.

Description

AlignLine aligns the inLine to the inAlignment coordinate system. The input line is translated, rotated and scaled.

The inAlignment is usually a coordinate system found by some template matching algorithm.

Examples

AlignLine performed on the sample line. The inAlignment is drawn on the first image in blue.

Errors

This filter can throw an exception to report error. Read how to deal with errors here: Error Handling
