AssistedFreehand

Assisted freehand region of interest

Description

An AssistedFreehand object specifies the shape and position of a hand-drawn region-of-interest (ROI), where the line drawn automatically follows edges in the underlying image. You can customize the appearance and interactive behavior of the ROI.

For more information about using this ROI, including keyboard shortcuts, see Tips.

Assisted Freehand ROI tracing the edge of an object between selected waypoints.

Creation

There are two ways to create an AssistedFreehand object. For more information, see Create ROI Shapes.

Use the drawassisted function. Use this function when you want to create the ROI and set the appearance in a single command. You can specify the shape and position of the ROI interactively by drawing the ROI over an image using the mouse.
Use the images.roi.AssistedFreehand function described here. Use this function when you want to specify the appearance and behavior of the ROI before you specify the shape and position of the ROI. After creating the object, you can specify the shape and position interactively by using the draw function.

Syntax

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand(ax)

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand(___,Name,Value)

Description

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand creates an AssistedFreehand object with default properties.

example

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand(ax) creates the ROI on the axes specified by ax.

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand(___,Name,Value) sets properties of the ROI using name-value arguments. You can specify multiple name-value arguments. Enclose each property name in single quotes.

Example: images.roi.AssistedFreehand('Color','y') creates a yellow colored AssistedFreehand object.

`Tag` — Tag to associate with ROI
`''` (default) | character vector | string scalar

Tag to associate with the ROI, specified as a character vector or string scalar. Use the tag value to find the ROI object in a hierarchy of objects using the findobj function.

`UserData` — Data to associate with ROI
any MATLAB data

Data to associate with the ROI, specified as any MATLAB data. For example, you can specify a scalar, vector, matrix, cell array, string, character array, table, or structure. The AssistedFreehand object does not use this data.

`Visible` — ROI visibility
`"on"` (default) | `"off"` | on/off logical value

ROI visibility, specified as "on" or "off", or as a numeric or logical 1 (true) or 0 (false). A value of "on" is equivalent to true, and "off" is equivalent to false. The value is stored as an on/off logical value of type OnOffSwitchState.

Value	Description
`"on"`	Display the ROI.
`"off"`	Hide the ROI without deleting it. You still can access the properties of an invisible ROI.

`Waypoints` — Position point is waypoint
`[]` (default) | logical vector

Position point is waypoint, specified as a logical vector of the same length as the Position property. Elements in Waypoints with the value true identify points in the Position matrix that are waypoints. By default, the AssistedFreehand object generates all the points that define the ROI and only makes points at locations of increased curvature into waypoints. You can turn all the points, or some subset of points, into waypoints by using code similar to roi.Waypoints(1:4:end) = true;.

Waypoints appear as circular shapes on the ROI edge. You can use waypoints to reshape the ROI by clicking and dragging the waypoint with the mouse. Moving waypoints modifies the freehand-drawn region between the waypoint that you clicked and the adjacent waypoints.

Object Functions

`addlistener`	Create event listener bound to event source
`beginDrawingFromPoint`	Begin drawing ROI from specified point
`bringToFront`	Bring ROI to front of Axes stacking order
`createMask`	Create binary mask image from ROI
`draw`	Begin drawing ROI interactively
`inROI`	Query if points are located in ROI
`reduce`	Reduce density of points in ROI
`wait`	Block MATLAB command line until ROI operation is finished

Create Freehand ROI Using Assisted Freehand

Open Live Script

Read an image into the workspace and display it.

figure
imshow(imread('baby.jpg'))

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object contains an object of type image.

Create an AssistedFreehand object and specify a line color. By default, the object creates the ROI on the current axes. Note that the axes must contain an image. The ROI does not have a position yet, and therefore does not appear on the image.

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand(Color="y");

Call the draw function, specifying the AssistedFreehand object as an argument. The pointer changes to a cross-hair shape when you move it over the image. You can being drawing the ROI. Note how, as you move the pointer, the line you draw follows the edges in the underlying image. Click to add vertices along the edge as you draw.

draw(roi)

{"String":"Figure contains an axes object. The axes object contains 2 objects of type image, images.roi.assistedfreehand.","Tex":[],"LaTex":[]}

Set Up Listeners for AssistedFreehand ROI Events

Open Live Script

Read an image into the workspace.

I = imread('cameraman.tif');

Display the image. Use the imshow syntax that returns the image object displayed.

img = imshow(I);

Create an AssistedFreehand ROI on the image. Call the draw object function to enable interactive drawing of the ROI shape. Note how the ROI line automatically follow edges in the underlying image.

roi = images.roi.AssistedFreehand(img);
draw(roi)

Set up listeners for ROI moving events. When you move it, the ROI sends notifications of these events and executes the callback function you specify.

addlistener(roi,'MovingROI',@allevents);
addlistener(roi,'ROIMoved',@allevents);

The allevents callback function displays at the command line the previous position and the current position of the ROI.

function allevents(src,evt)
    evname = evt.EventName;
    switch(evname)
        case{'MovingROI'}
            disp(['ROI moving previous position: ' mat2str(evt.PreviousPosition)]);
            disp(['ROI moving current position: ' mat2str(evt.CurrentPosition)]);
        case{'ROIMoved'}
            disp(['ROI moved previous position: ' mat2str(evt.PreviousPosition)]);
            disp(['ROI moved current position: ' mat2str(evt.CurrentPosition)]);
    end
end

Events

To receive notification from the ROI when certain events happen, set up listeners for these events. You can specify a callback function that executes when one of these events occurs. When the ROI notifies your application through the listener, it returns data specific to the event. Look at the event class for the specific event to see what is returned.

For an example, see Set Up Listeners for AssistedFreehand ROI Events.

Event Name	Trigger	Event Data	Event Attributes
`DeletingROI`	ROI is about to be interactively deleted.	`event.EventData`	`NotifyAccess`: `private` `ListenAccess`: `public`

Tips

To draw the ROI interactively using the draw or drawassisted function, position the pointer on the image, click and release to place the first vertex (waypoint). Then move the pointer to draw a line. As you draw, the line automatically follows the edges of objects in the image. Double-click to finish the ROI.

The ROI supports the following interactivity, including keyboard shortcuts.

Behavior	Keyboard shortcut
Remove the most recently added waypoint but keep drawing.	Press Backspace. The function redraws the line from the previous waypoint to the current position of the pointer. You can only back up to the first waypoint you drew.
Cancel drawing the ROI.	Press Esc. The function returns a valid ROI object with an empty `Position` property.
Finish drawing (close) the ROI.	Double-click, which adds a point at the pointer position and draws a line connecting this point to the first point drawn, closing the ROI. Right-click, which draws a line connecting the last point to the first point drawn. Position the pointer over the first point and click. Press Enter, which draws a line connecting the last point to the first point drawn.
Resize (reshape) the ROI.	Position pointer over a waypoint and then click and drag. No assistance (snapping to edges) is available in this mode.
Add a waypoint.	Position the pointer on an edge of the ROI, right-click, and select Add Waypoint. You can also position the pointer on an edge of the ROI and double-click.
Remove a waypoint.	Position the pointer on a waypoint, right-click, and select Remove Waypoint.
Move the ROI.	Position the pointer over the ROI. The pointer changes to the fleur shape. Click and drag to move the ROI.
Delete an ROI.	Position the pointer on the ROI (not on a vertex), right-click, and select Delete Freehand from the context menu. You can also delete the ROI programmatically using the `delete` function.

R2020a: `UIContextMenu` property is not recommended

Starting in R2020a, using the UIContextMenu property to assign a context menu to a graphics object or UI component is not recommended. Use the ContextMenu property instead. The property values are the same.

There are no plans to remove support for the UIContextMenu property at this time. However, the UIContextMenu property no longer appears in the list returned by calling the get function on a graphics object or UI component.
