l
The pattern model does not have to be created from a pattern that is in the tool region
of interest.
l
The pattern model can be on any image that contains a pattern.
l
The rotation (orientation) and size of the pattern model affect the success of the pat-
tern finding process.
l
Creating a pattern "destroys" an existing pattern.
l To erase the current pattern and create a new one, click New.
l To edit or reposition an existing sample pattern, click Edit.
To create and position a pattern model:
1. Click New. This opens the Pattern Edition mode.
2. Enter values in the Location dialog, or use the mouse to configure the
bounding box in the display.
NOTE: Correct size and rotation are critical to ensure successful find-
ing of patterns:
l
The bounding box should be just large enough to encom-
pass the pattern.
l
The X-Y axes marker defines the orientation of the pat-
tern. Make sure the X-Y axes of the Pattern region of inter-
est are aligned in the correct orientation with respect to
the Pattern Locator region of interest. See the following fig-
ure.
