Passing multiple parameters with the setMouseCallback function

asked 2014-05-06 08:31:17 -0600

Is it possible to do?

As of know I am using the following to pass an image to the callback:

static void onMouse( int event, int x, int y, int, void* param)
{
    // Mount back the parameters
    Mat* ptrImage = (Mat*)param;

    //What to do when left button is pressed
    if( event != EVENT_LBUTTONDOWN ){
        // Draw the point on the image here!
        return;
    }
}

namedWindow("draw mask", WINDOW_AUTOSIZE);
setMouseCallback("draw mask", onMouse, (void*)&work_image);

But I would like to add a second pointer to a vector of points to keep storing them also, just don't know how to add multiple parameters. Anyone has any idea without creating global variables?

pack anything required into a struct.

struct MouseParams
{
    Mat img;
    Point pt;
    int lucky;
};


static void onMouse( int event, int x, int y, int, void* param)
{
    // Mount back the parameters
    MouseParams* mp = (MouseParams*)param;
    Mat & img = mp->img;
    mp->pt = Point(x,y);
    // ...    

}


int main() 
{
    MouseParams mp;
    setMouseCallback("draw mask", onMouse, (void*)&mp);

    imshow("hi",mp.img);
}

Yeah figured that out myself but thanks! No way to actually add multiple points and not an extra struct?

array of points should work.

Point pts[4]; setMouseCallback("draw mask", onMouse, (void*)pts);

Point * mp = (Point*)param;

how to get 4 points in onMouse function?. When i tried to get x,y coordinates of all four points, the contents of pt[0] to pt[4] are all same. How can i specify my first click is for pt[0], second left click is for pt[2], ans so on.?
