Hi all,
I have a grey scale image and I'm able to overlay the boundary of my region but it is in black.
To improve its visualization I would like to color it(for example in blue)
Is there a way to do it?
since I have the array where the boundary indexes are stored, is there a way to associate to the the RGB triplet of a color?
thanks in advance
