DilateImage

Replaces each pixel with the maximum of pixels within a kernel.

Name	Type	Range	Description
inImage	Image		Input image
inRoi	Region *		Range of outImage pixels to be computed
inSourceRoi	Region *		Range of inImage pixels to be considered in computations
inBorderColor	Pixel *		Color of the imaginary pixels outside the image boundaries
inKernel	KernelShape		Kernel shape
inRadiusX	Integer	0 -	Nearly half of the kernel's width (2*R+1)
inRadiusY	Integer *	0 -	Nearly half of the kernel's height (2*R+1), or same as inRadiusX
outImage	Image		Output image
diagKernel	Region		Kernel shape

The operation replaces each pixel with the brightest pixel in its neighbourhood, thus shrinking dark areas in inImage and expanding the bright ones.

DilateImage performed on the sample image with inKernel = Box, inRadiusX = 1, inRadiusY = 1.

This operation is optimized for SSE2 technology for pixels of types: all formats (when inSourceRoi = NIL and inBorderColor = NIL).

This operation supports automatic parallelization for multicore and multiprocessor systems.

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

Error type	Description
DomainError	inBorderColor is relevant only when inSourceRoi is set to Auto (NIL) in DilateImage.
DomainError	Not supported kernel on input in DilateImage.

This filter is available on Basic Complexity Level.

This filters is member of DilateImage filter group.
