Pixcavator 3.3 released

Soon after version 3.2, the next one is here. There are a couple of changes.

First, a feature was added to help with image exploration. As you move the mouse around the analyzed image, the object you hover over is highlighted. The contour is shown blue and, if “Color objects” is chosen, the whole object is colored. The data about it is displayed under the image as before.

Second, the limitations on the kind of objects to be captured have been removed. To avoid dealing with excessive number of objects in the image and the spreadsheet, only objects with “saliency” above a certain threshold were taken into account and displayed. There have been no complaints about that until recently. A manufacturing company needs to analyze an 1000×2000 image which is almost all black with a few light dots here and there (1-3 pixels in size). In the new version even objects this small will be captured. However, the number of objects will be limited to 1000.
