DrawStrings_TwoColors

This is Filter Equivalent. This function may be present in generated code, but should not be used in hand-written code.

Header:	AVL.h
Namespace:	avs
Module:	FoundationLite

Draws strings (text) on an image with two colors, depending on the status of each string.

Applications: Usually: green or red for pass/fail status.

Syntax

outImage	Image&			Output image

In-place Processing

This function supports in-place data processing - you can pass the same reference to inImage and outImage

Description

The operation draws a strings on the inImage aligning the inLocationAnchor location of the text at the inLocations of the inImage. The height of the font is fixed and equals 16 pixels.

Hints

If you want to draw on an empty background, use EmptyImage function before.
Define inStrings. This will be the primitives to be drawn.
For each of the strings also define its location by setting the inLocations input.
If the locations provided on the inLocations input are in a local coordinate system, also set the inLocationAlignment input.
Set inLocationAnchor do define how each of the strings should be aligned in relation to its location.
Define the font size by setting the inSize input. Recommended values are: 16, 32, 48, 64.
Define inConditions with the boolean values indicating the class (usually: OK/NOK) for each input primitive.
Set the inColorIfTrue and inColorIfFalse inputs to define the two colors used for drawing.
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

Example usage of the DrawStrings_TwoColors on an empty image.
