Specifying search ring overlap
Pattern tool search rings and fields of view must overlap to ensure that target
features will be found. This search ring overlap is specified in pixels.
Target features must be enclosed completely within a field of view to be recog-
nized. Since features can sometimes be located across the boundary between
two adjacent field of view rectangles, the specified search ring overlap must be
slightly larger than the target feature, as shown in the example below.
NOTE
A more detailed discussion of search rings is included in
Chapter 3: Probes.
Enter the desired overlap in the Search
ring overlap field in pixels.
Search ring overlap too small, feature
