Feature request: more flexible scale bar recognition

[bwprice]

The ability to recognize different types of scale bar (such as this example or this example) would make the pipeline more useful for other images.

Also the option to output measurements in "pixels" rather than / in addition to in mm - this would allow more flexibility where specimens are imaged at the same height, but without a scale bar or with a scalebar that doesn't work with the pipeline.

@bwprice thanks Ben!

The ability to recognize different types of scale bar ... would make the pipeline more useful for other images.

We can start adding support to those kinds of scale bars in the next network trainings. For that to work, I think we would need to:

1. feed these images with different scale bars to the network;
2. have an algorithm that check the ruler and tilt it if necessary.

Also the option to output measurements in "pixels" rather than / in addition to in mm - this would allow more flexibility where specimens are imaged at the same height, but without a scale bar or with a scalebar that doesn't work with the pipeline.

Got it; I'll work on that soon. Thanks again; I'll let you know!
