poIImagePlane SetColorAlphaTolerance
Sets the search tolerance for the target color that will be made transparent when the ColorAlpha image post-processing filter is active on the image plane.
Syntax
Imageplane_handle SetColorAlphaTolderance tolerance
Application
HyperView Tcl Modify
Description
The image plane offers several image post-processing filters that can be run on the image or video. The ColorAlpha filter makes the target color in the image or video transparent. This command specifies the search tolerance for the target color. This only applies when the filter mode is set to “equal”.
Inputs
- tolerance
- The search tolerance, specified as an integer that represents a tolerance percentage applied to the color value when searching.
Example
To create one image plane, and use the color alpha filter to remove all "white" from the
image (making those areas of the image transparent), and then set the color search tolerance
to 18%. The image plane without the filter is show in Figure 1 (below), while the image
plane with the filter active is shown in Figure 2
(below):

Errors
Returns HW_InvalidHandle if the image plane handle is invalid, or poIInvalidImgFilterMode if the specified filter mode is not recognized.
