AlignLine


Header: AVL.h
Namespace: avl
Module: FoundationLite

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

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.

Syntax

C++
C#
 
void avl::AlignLine
(
	const avl::Line2D& inLine,
	const avl::CoordinateSystem2D& inAlignment,
	bool inInverse,
	avl::Line2D& outAlignedLine
)

Parameters

Name Type Default Description
Input value inLine const Line2D&
Input value inAlignment const CoordinateSystem2D& Coordinate system to align to
Input value inInverse bool Switches to the inverse transform
Output value outAlignedLine Line2D&

In-place Processing

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

Read more about In-place Computation.

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

List of possible exceptions:

Error type Description
DomainError Indefinite line on input in AlignLine.
