Measuring angles
Explanation
SIDEXIS XG also provides a function for easily determining angles.
Scope
This function can be used for X-ray and video images (but not for live and still
images).
For imported images square pixels are assumed for determining angles if the
corresponding information could not be detected during import.
Activating the measurement tool
➢ Click the button.
or
➢ In the menu bar
"[A]nalysis"
, select the
"Measure [a]ngle"
function.
Handling
Angle measurements are handled similarly to length measurements.
1. Position the mouse pointer on the spot where you want to place the apex
of the angle.
2. Confirm this position by clicking the left mouse button.
3. Draw the first leg of the angle to be measured using the mouse pointer.
4. Confirm this position by clicking the left mouse button.
5. Draw the second leg of the angle by dragging the mouse pointer. Here it
is possible to measure to the left or to the right.
6. Confirm this position by clicking the left mouse button.
● Angles of up to 180° can be measured. The angle is displayed between
the two legs as well as on the status bar at the bottom of the window.
● The angle measurement in the image is highlighted with a colored bar and
can be moved freely within the workspace.
- At the same time, the angle measurement remains connected to the
legs of the angle by a broken line.
NOTICE
The indicated angles are relative values.
They depend on the dimensions of the sensors used for acquiring the
images.
This also applies to imported images.
