DrawPoints_Palette

Draws points on an image with multiple colors.

Name	Type	Description
inImage	Image	Input image
inPoints	Point2D ?Array ?
inPointAlignment	CoordinateSystem2D *
inColors	Pixel Array *
inDrawingStyle	DrawingStyle
inForceRgb	Bool	Filter will convert monochromatic image to RGB if needed
outImage	Image	Output image

Description

The operation draws an array of points on the inImage image using common drawing parameters for all of them. The points may exceed the image dimensions - those will be drawn partially or not at all, but the filter execution will succeed.

Hints

Connect an image source to the inImage input. Drawing will be done on this image.
- If you want to draw on an empty background, use EmptyImage filter before.
Define inPoints. This will be the primitives to be drawn.
Leave the inColors input not set to have all the primitives drawn with random colors. Set a custom array of colors here to decide explicitly how each of the primitives should be drawn.
Set inForceRgb to True, if you want to get a 3-channel output regardless of what is on the input.
Set inDrawingStyle to control quality, opacity, thickness, filling, point shapes and sizes.

Examples

Description of usage of this filter can be found in examples and tutorial: Calibration of World Coordinates.
