crop whitespace from an image

CROP gets rid of whitespace around an image

Description

CROP(FILENAME,APPEND,MARGIN) is the full calling form. APPEND and MARGIN are optional inputs.

CROP('filename.ext') crops the image in the file and saves it using the original filename, overwriting the old image. The extension (ext) can be anything IMREAD supports.

CROP(directory) crops all images in a directory.

If APPEND is 1, CROP saves the cropped image as 'filename_crop.ext' in the same directory as the original.

MARGIN sets the margin width in pixels (default is 10).

Example: crop('C:\MATLAB7\toolbox\matlab\demos\html\cruller_01.png',1)

Requirements: your FIND must allow the 'last' option (version 7+?)

• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1)

I wish I had found this earlier. This could have saved me manually cropping about 300 images already, but atleast still saves the next 700.

[Mike Hoff]

Wow! This just saved me a wealth of time, Thank you so much!!! No more opening each image one by one in Picture Manager and manually cropping
