The SEGMENTEXTOPTIONS structure contains segmentation options to control the auto segmentation process using L_MrcSegmentBitmap.

Members

L_UINT uStructSize

Size of this structure in bytes, for versioning. Use the sizeof() operator to calculate this value.

L_UINT uCleanSize

Value that indicates the cleaner size used to remove the noise inside the segmented image. Possible values range from 0 to 10, where 0 means to skip the cleaning stage.

L_UINT uSegmentQuality

Threshold value used to determine whether the segment is a picture segment. Possible values range from 0 to 100. Use 0 to set all possible picture segments to 2-bit without loss of a lot of information. Use 100 to set all picture segments to 2 bit only if they are very close to 2-bit.

L_UINT uColorThreshold

Threshold value used to combine colors. Colors that are closer together than this amount will be combined. The best value is 25. Values saturate at 443.

L_UINT uBackGroundThreshold

Threshold value used to separate image objects from the background. Best values are from 5 to 35.

L_UINT uCombineThreshold

Threshold value used to merge segments. Best values are from 75 to 125.

L_UINT uFlags

Flags that indicate segmentation preference, whether to force segments to be 2-bit segments, and whether to search for background segments. You can use a bitwise OR (|) to specify one flag from each group:

The following are the flags that indicate the segmentation preference, and whether to force segments to be 2-bit segments:

The following are the flags that indicate whether to search for background segments:

The following are the flags that indicate the segmentation method:
