Edge Locator
The Edge Locator tool identifies and measures the position of one or more edges on an object.
The Edge Locator uses pixel grey-level values to detect edges found within the region of inter-
est. Once potential edges have been located, the Edge Locator applies the constraints to
determine which edges are valid. The Edge Locator determines the position of one or more
edges; it does not measure the length of edges detected in the region of interest. To extrap-
olate and measure a line on an object, use the Edge Finder tool.
To create an Edge Locator tool, right-click in the Tree structure, then select:
