Adding a Trackbar to our applications! {#tutorial_trackbar}
|
||
|
======================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
- In the previous tutorials (about @ref tutorial_adding_images and the @ref tutorial_basic_linear_transform)
|
||
|
you might have noted that we needed to give some **input** to our programs, such
|
||
|
as \f$\alpha\f$ and \f$beta\f$. We accomplished that by entering this data using the Terminal.
|
||
|
- Well, it is time to use some fancy GUI tools. OpenCV provides some GUI utilities (**highgui** module)
|
||
|
for you. An example of this is a **Trackbar**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
![](images/Adding_Trackbars_Tutorial_Trackbar.png)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- In this tutorial we will just modify our two previous programs so that they get the input
|
||
|
information from the trackbar.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Goals
|
||
|
-----
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this tutorial you will learn how to:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Add a Trackbar in an OpenCV window by using @ref cv::createTrackbar
|
||
|
|
||
|
Code
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
|
||
|
Let's modify the program made in the tutorial @ref tutorial_adding_images. We will let the user enter the
|
||
|
\f$\alpha\f$ value by using the Trackbar.

Explanation
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
We only analyze the code that is related to Trackbar:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- First, we load two images, which are going to be blended.
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_cpp
|
||
|
@snippet cpp/tutorial_code/HighGUI/AddingImagesTrackbar.cpp load
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_java
|
||
|
@snippet java/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.java load
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_python
|
||
|
@snippet python/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.py load
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
- To create a trackbar, first we have to create the window in which it is going to be located. So:
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_cpp
|
||
|
@snippet cpp/tutorial_code/HighGUI/AddingImagesTrackbar.cpp window
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_java
|
||
|
@snippet java/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.java window
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_python
|
||
|
@snippet python/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.py window
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Now we can create the Trackbar:
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_cpp
|
||
|
@snippet cpp/tutorial_code/HighGUI/AddingImagesTrackbar.cpp create_trackbar
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_java
|
||
|
@snippet java/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.java create_trackbar
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_python
|
||
|
@snippet python/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.py create_trackbar
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note the following (C++ code):
|
||
|
- Our Trackbar has a label **TrackbarName**
|
||
|
- The Trackbar is located in the window named **Linear Blend**
|
||
|
- The Trackbar values will be in the range from \f$0\f$ to **alpha_slider_max** (the minimum
|
||
|
limit is always **zero**).
|
||
|
- The numerical value of Trackbar is stored in **alpha_slider**
|
||
|
- Whenever the user moves the Trackbar, the callback function **on_trackbar** is called
|
||
|
|
||
|
Finally, we have to define the callback function **on_trackbar** for C++ and Python code, using an anonymous inner class listener in Java
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_cpp
|
||
|
@snippet cpp/tutorial_code/HighGUI/AddingImagesTrackbar.cpp on_trackbar
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_java
|
||
|
@snippet java/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.java on_trackbar
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
@add_toggle_python
|
||
|
@snippet python/tutorial_code/highgui/trackbar/AddingImagesTrackbar.py on_trackbar
|
||
|
@end_toggle
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that (C++ code):
|
||
|
- We use the value of **alpha_slider** (integer) to get a double value for **alpha**.
|
||
|
- **alpha_slider** is updated each time the trackbar is displaced by the user.
|
||
|
- We define *src1*, *src2*, *dist*, *alpha*, *alpha_slider* and *beta* as global variables,
|
||
|
so they can be used everywhere.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Result
|
||
|
------
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Our program produces the following output:
|
||
|
|
||
|
![](images/Adding_Trackbars_Tutorial_Result_0.jpg)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- As a manner of practice, you can also add two trackbars for the program made in
|
||
|
@ref tutorial_basic_linear_transform. One trackbar to set \f$\alpha\f$ and another for set \f$\beta\f$. The output might
|
||
|
look like:
