Woolz Image Processing  Version 1.8.3
Name
WlzDilation - Morphological dilation of a woolz domain object
Synopsis
WlzDilation [-c<n>] [-r<radius>] [-h] [input file]
Options
-c4 4-connected dilation (2D)
-c8 8-connected dilation (2D)
-c6 6-connected dilation (3D)
-c18 18-connected dilation (3D)
-c26 26-connected dilation (3D)
-r Structuring element radius (default 1)
-h Help - print help message
-v Verbose operation
By default the input object is read from the standard input and the output is written to the standard output.
Description
WlzDilation dilates the input object using a structuring element defined by the given connectivity. If a 2D connectivity is applied to a 3D object then each plane is eroded independently.
Examples
WlzDilation -r8 -c26 obj.wlz >dil.wlz
Dilates the 3D domain of object read from obj.wlz using a 26-connected sphere of radius 8 and then writes the dilated object to dil.wlz.
File
