Description

The filter computes a rectangle with the smallest possible selected feature that contains all pixels belonging to the input region. The angle of the resulting rectangle is then normalized as in the NormalizeRectangleOrientation filter.

Hints

  • If the input region is not guaranteed to be non-empty, precede this filter with SkipEmptyRegion.

Examples

RegionBoundingRectangle performed on a sample region with inRectangleOrientation set on Vertical.

Errors

This filter can throw an exception to report error. Read how to deal with errors in Error Handling.

List of possible exceptions:
