Convert ROI into Measurement

Hallo,

I am looking for an easy way to convert ROIs in Measurements. Because I know there is a simple way to convert Measurements into ROIs. Like:

<div>Private Sub ConvertMeasurementsToROIs()</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Dim imageA as McImage=ThisApplication.ActiveImage</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Dim md As Mediacy.Addins.Measurements.McMMData=imageA.MeasurementsData</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; If md.SubFeatures.Count=0 Then Exit Sub</div><br><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 'get McRegions from the first features</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Dim rgns As MediaCy.IQL.Features.McRegions=TryCast(md.SubFeatures(0).GetFeatures,MediaCy.IQL.Features.McRegions)</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; If rgns IsNot Nothing Then</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 'create ROIs from measurement features</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; imageA.Aoi.CopyFrom(rgns)</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; End If</div><div><span>End Sub</span></div>

Thank you in advance
Best,
Friedrich

    Hi Friedrich,

    You can do it using the Features manager (Select tab). Add ROIs to feartures manager and put it on the image as Measurements:



    Or, if you want to do it using a macro, use this code:

        Public Sub ROIsToMeasurements
            Dim im As McImage = ThisApplication.ActiveImage
            Dim md As McMMData = im.MeasurementsData
            md.AddFeaturesAsManualMeasurements(im.Aoi.Duplicate)
            'optionally cleanup ROIs
            im.Aoi.Reset
        End Sub

    Hi Friedrich,

    The measurements could be locked, to unlock them:
    1. Ensure that the Filled option of the measurement outlines is off:

    2. Unlock the objects in the Select group dropdown:

  • Hi Yuri,

    after I have converted the ROI into a measurement with the macro, I cannot move or enlarge or reduce the measurement with the selection tool. This also happens when I try the first method described with the feature manager.

  • Hi Yuri,

    yes, the measurement was locked. I enlarged the code with:

    md.UnlockObjects(True)
    Thanks
