7.6.4 Measure Tool
Measure tool can be used to measure distance, calculate angles, and create points and lines for use as inputs to other
Measure Tools.
There are three Measure Tool operations:
• Measure from a point to a point
• Intersect two lines
• Measure from a line to a point
• Measure a curve to a point
• Measure a curve to a line
In these operations, points are generated by a variety of vision tools and lines are created by Coordinate tools, Line
Detect tools, or other Measure tools.
Usage
• Determine the location of a Blob
• Determine the distance between Blobs
• Determine a distance between a Blob and a closest point on a bead
• Determine a distance between a Blob and a farthest point on a bead
Fields
The following are fields on the Measure tool Input tab:
• Measure Tool Operations on page 269
• Measurement Type on page 277
