Hello AMD123,
'Find Edges' uses as 3x3 Sobel filter for edge detection. The function
does not create ROIs.
To create a ROI on the image (either the original image or the 'edge
image') you can use the WAND tracing tool.
-Select the wand tool and click onto the edge in your image
- Don't forget to adjust the tolerance by right clicking onto the tool icon
(Alternatively you can threshold the image, use 'Process/Binary/Make
Binary' or use 'Process/Binary/Create Mask' after 'Find Edges' before
using the wand tool. In this case you can use the wand tool with zero
tolerance.)
You can also try to select your object with the wand tool without edge
filtering by directly clicking into the object area. There will be a
good chance that this will work presuming limited object intensity
variations, distinct disparity between object and background intensity
and appropriate tolerance setting.
Best regards,
Peter
