DIGITIZE07

Digitze points on an image using the mouse.

Description

DIGITIZE07(filename) displays an image and allows the user to digitize points using the mouse, similar to MATLAB's built-in GINPUT and other digitizers available at Matlab Central's File Exchange.

The main new feature of this version is that points are draggable; this permits fine tuning of already digitized points using the zoom feature. Other features adopted from previous versions include:
- Import previously digitized points
- Export digitized points to the workspace or file
- Interactively change the marker color, size, and shape
- Pin digitized points (i.e. toggle draggable mode)
- Delete unwanted points by right-clicking on the point
- Fully interactive GUI: Errors are reported to dialog boxes rather than to the Workspace

Very Good
I am just wondering if it could include labelling of the points?

[beth meacham]

works beautifully! thank you.

Just what I was looking for after 2 hours of searching. Thanks a lot.

Easy to use and extremely effective; great job!

Does not work on UNIX. Please amend lines 157,167 to use fullfile:

[x,map] = imread([matlabroot,'\toolbox\matlab\icons\pin_icon.gif']);
% should be[x,map] = imread(fullfile(matlabroot,'toolbox','matlab','icons','pin_icon.gif'));

etc.

This is a great digitizing tool and being able to adjust the position of a point is a great feature. I have not be able to figure out how to modify it so it could be used as a callable sub-routine that would return the XY values. Is that possible to do with a GUI oriented program?

Hello everyone!!! I'm student in Greece and I am a new user of MATLAB...
Which type of files are recognized by IMREAD??
Can I call "digitize07(filename)" in the command window?
When we says "filename", we means the path where the file exists?
And finally, we must put the image file as a viriable?
(sorry for bad English)
