Strip
The Strip tool measures the width of a strip.
The Strip tool uses a complex feature-locating algorithm to find a strip and then return measurements.
See "Strip Algorithm" in the Gocator Measurement Tool Technical Manual for a detailed explanation of
the algorithm. The behavior of the algorithm can be adjusted by changing the parameters in the
measurement panel.
The Strip tool lets you add multiple measurements of the same type to receive measurements and set
decisions for multiple strips. Multiple measurements are added by using the drop-down above the list of
measurements and clicking on the Add button.
For example, if a target has three strips, by adding two measurements, choosing Index From The Left
in the SelectType setting, and providing values of 1 and 3 in the Index of field of the measurements,
respectively, the Strip tool will return measurements and decisions for the first and third strip.
For information on adding, managing, and removing tools and measurements, as well as detailed
descriptions of settings common to most tools, see Tools Panel on page 198.
