Shape Detection FAQs

What is the difference between the green region and red region?

The green region indicates the area of the image in which you want to search for shapes. The red region indicates a detected shape.

Edges in addition to the curves of my shape are detected in the image. Does this affect the accuracy of the function?

Detecting superfluous edges can negatively affect the accuracy of shape detection. Adjust the Curve Parameters so that the algorithm detects only the relevant curves.

What does the text overlay in the image indicate?

Each detected shape has a text overlay close to the first point of the shape. The text displays the shape number and score.
