Settings for 3D analyses
3D analysis uses the same search principles as the 2D standard analysis to identify
a detail. This means that the position settings and the masking work in exactly the
same way.
3D analysis includes finding the height and angle in the x and y axes for the detail.
To make this possible, a height region is defined. This is done by selecting Edit
under the heading Height region and then drawing a blue area on the detail in the
image. A height region must always be defined when using a 3D camera.

When a detail has been identified by FlexLoader Vision, the height region value is
used to establish a plane that lies on the detail. The average height of the plane is
the height of the detail, and the angle of the plane gives the angles in the x and y
axes. To avoid problems, the height region should be drawn on a surface that lies
in the same plane. Note that the height region should not be drawn up to the edge
of the detail, because then the blue area might end up outside of the detail, if the
detail leans more than it did at teachin.
However, in certain cases the height region must be drawn so that it does not lie
in one plane. A common example is lying cylinders. Then it is necessary to know
that the average height of the located detail surface actually is below the top of the
