im_slice(3)

im_slice3

Threshold an image

Part of im_thresh(3).

Usage

#include <vips/vips.h>

int im_thresh(in, out, threshold)
IMAGE *in, *out;
double threshold;

int im_slice(in, out, threshold1, threshold2)
IMAGE *in, *out;
double threshold1, threshold2;

Overview

These functions have been replaced with the relational and boolean packages - see im_lessconst() and im_and() for much better ways of doing this.

These functions operate on any non-complex input. The output image is a unsigned char image with the same sizes and the same number of channels as input.

im_slice() thresholds the image held by image descriptor in and writes the result on the image descriptor out. Output is a byte image with values less than threshold1) set to 0, values in [threshold1, threshold2) set to 128 and values greater than threshold2 set to 255 (x in range [a,b) means a<=x<b).

im_threshold() thresholds the image held by image descriptor in and writes the result on the image descriptor out. Output is a byte image with values less than threshold set to 0, and values greater or equal to threshold set to 255.

Return value

The function returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
