Thread Subject: Black and white switch

Hi all,

Does anyone know that a way to turn a logical image or
uint8 image, from black background to white background from
white line to black line in a simple step??

Thx a lot

imshow(L)

imshow(~L)%where L is a logical image

imshow(u8)
imshow(intmax(class(u8))-u8) %where u8 is a uint8 image

Hope this helps

Unfortunately that last line does not generalize to int8
as might be hinted by the use of intmax(class(u8)) instead than
the hardcoding of the constant 255.

This generalizes a little better, provided T is one of the int classes.

reshape(typecast(bitxor(typecast(T(:),'uint8'),uint8(255)),class(T)),size(T))
