Description

For the sake of laziness, we were wondering to introduce a smart selection tool which can automatically create a polygon and select particular part of an object.

How to

  1. workarea.tag.html load the image on hidden canvas.
  2. When smart selection tool is selected then select the area and convert it into either SVG path or SVG polygon.

Research direction

Start with workarea.tag.html and inspect how images are loaded onto the hidden canvas. Determine how the smart selection tool should identify an area from a mouse click and convert it to an SVG path or polygon. Done means the selected object area is accurately represented in the existing annotation workflow, with behavior verified through manual canvas testing.
