measure_profile
Measure silhouette width, edge positions, and filled runs per horizontal band in metres from a reference image to build loft sections, check specs, or find model differences.
Instructions
Measure a silhouette in a reference image in metres (use measure for an object of the scene). The image
height is mapped to height_m. Returns, for
each horizontal band from the bottom: width, left and right edge from the centre, the separate runs (arms and
legs are separate runs) and the filled width. Use the numbers for loft sections, assert_spec checks or to find
where the model differs. The outline comes from alpha or from the corner colour (see prepare_reference).
grid=true also returns the reference with a metric grid (labels in millimetres, the same coordinates as the
bands: x from the centre of the silhouette box, z from its bottom), to read where parts and details are.
region [x0, z0, x1, z1] in metres zooms the grid picture into a part; grid_size is its long side in pixels;
out saves it to a file.
