Description
This filter works similarly to EnumerateImages, but it behaves more like a camera: it preserves its state across the whole program.
For example, you can have two GrabImage_FromFiles filters in two different Task macrofilters. When execution of second Task starts, images loaded previously in the first Task are not loaded again.
Examples
Description of usage of this filter can be found in examples and tutorial: HMI Start Stop.
Complexity Level
This filter is available on Basic Complexity Level.
