Adding Tools
The tool icons are located above the image
area.
There are two ways to add a tool to an image:
- Click on the tool icon.
- Click and drag a tool icon into
the image area, then adjust the region of interest (ROI) by grabbing
one of the ROI's four anchor points and sizing the ROI as needed.

Region of Interest (ROI)
- All AutoVISION tools have an ROI except
Match Strings,
String Format,
and Logic.
- A tool will only execute its function
within its own ROI.
- Larger ROIs require more processing time.
- ROIs of different tools can
overlap and still function correctly.
- Some ROIs can rotate. ROI rotation is
available for the following tools:
- Decode Tool
- OCR Tool
- Count Tool
- Presence / Absence Tool
- Measure Tool
