Property Value

Type: Boolean
Remarks
The Connect8 property will be True if the counting and labeling of connected groups of bits (blobs) is done with an 8-connected test, otherwise a 4-connected labeling is used. Set this value before calling the McBitMask.Threshold property's McThreshold.Execute method to set the bit mask. This value is automatically set by the SetFromSegments, SetFromBitmapBits or CopyFrom methods. The default state of the Connect8 property is False.
Examples
VB
Copy
'Create an 8-connected bit mask of an image
Dim myBitMask As McBitMask
Set myBitMask = CreateOperator( "McBitMask", ActiveImage)
myBitMask.Connect8 = True
With myBitMask.Threshold
.AutoFindPhase = mcfpBrightest 'find bright blobs
.Execute
End With
MsgBox "We found " & myBitMask.BlobCount & " 8-connected bright blobs."
