Extract Objects
The Extract Objects command reads the labelled image produced by Connected Components (or Watershed) and creates one segmentation-class object per labelled region. These objects are the raw candidates passed to Classify Objects for final filtering and class assignment.
This is the boundary between “pixels” and “objects” in the pipeline: everything before this step operates on whole images, and everything after operates on individually addressable regions with their own metrics, mask, and object ID.
Parameters
Section titled “Parameters”| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Max objects before fail | Hard upper limit on the number of regions extracted. If more regions are found the pipeline step fails, preventing runaway processing on misconfigured segmentation (default: –1 = unlimited) |
Pipeline position

The segmentation class assigned here is the intermediate class used internally; the final named object class is assigned by Classify Objects.
