Interactively Extract The Color Of A Pixel From A 2D Picture

[Raj_V]

Overview

This VI demonstrates how you can interactively extract the color of a pixel from a 2D picture.

Description

Have you ever wondered if you could find out the color of a specific pixel on an image? That's exactly what this example does. Run this VI and pick any JPEG image on your computer. An example image is already provided with the VI.

Mouse over the picture control and find out the exact color your mouse is over and the coordinates your mouse is hovering over within the picture identifier.

Requirements

 Software

• LabVIEW Base Development System 2012 (or compatible)
• If running in a Real-Time context, you will need the LabVIEW Real-Time Module 2012 (or compatible)

 Hardware

• No hardware is necessary to use this example VI

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Download and open the attached ZIP-file
2. Open the VI and follow the instructions on the Front Panel

There is a bug with this that it doesn't take into account and scrolling of the image.  So if you load an image and then scroll down it no longer selects the right color properly.  To fix this read the Origin property, and add it to the offset inside the Mouse Move event.
