Bases: _ImageBase

Labels (or segmentation) layer.

An image-like layer where every pixel contains an integer ID corresponding to the region it belongs to.

Parameters:

data (array or list of array) – Labels data as an array or multiscale. Must be integer type or bools. Please note multiscale rendering is only supported in 2D. In 3D, only the lowest resolution scale is displayed.
affine (n-D array or napari.utils.transforms.Affine) – (N+1, N+1) affine transformation matrix in homogeneous coordinates. The first (N, N) entries correspond to a linear transform and the final column is a length N translation vector and a 1 or a napari Affine transform object. Applied as an extra transform on top of the provided scale, rotate, and shear values.
blending (str) – One of a list of preset blending modes that determines how RGB and alpha values of the layer visual get mixed. Allowed values are {‘opaque’, ‘translucent’, and ‘additive’}.
cache (bool) – Whether slices of out-of-core datasets should be cached upon retrieval. Currently, this only applies to dask arrays.
colormap (CyclicLabelColormap or DirectLabelColormap or None) – Colormap to use for the labels. If None, a random colormap will be used.
depiction (str) – 3D Depiction mode. Must be one of {‘volume’, ‘plane’}. The default value is ‘volume’.
experimental_clipping_planes (list of dicts, list of ClippingPlane, or ClippingPlaneList) – Each dict defines a clipping plane in 3D in data coordinates. Valid dictionary keys are {‘position’, ‘normal’, and ‘enabled’}. Values on the negative side of the normal are discarded if the plane is enabled.
features (dict[str, array-like] or DataFrame) – Features table where each row corresponds to a label and each column is a feature. The first row corresponds to the background label.
metadata (dict) – Layer metadata.
multiscale (bool) – Whether the data is a multiscale image or not. Multiscale data is represented by a list of array like image data. If not specified by the user and if the data is a list of arrays that decrease in shape then it will be taken to be multiscale. The first image in the list should be the largest. Please note multiscale rendering is only supported in 2D. In 3D, only the lowest resolution scale is displayed.
name (str) – Name of the layer.
opacity (float) – Opacity of the layer visual, between 0.0 and 1.0.
plane (dict or SlicingPlane) – Properties defining plane rendering in 3D. Properties are defined in data coordinates. Valid dictionary keys are {‘position’, ‘normal’, ‘thickness’, and ‘enabled’}.
properties (dict {str: array (N,)} or DataFrame) – Properties for each label. Each property should be an array of length N, where N is the number of labels, and the first property corresponds to background.
rendering (str) – 3D Rendering mode used by vispy. Must be one {‘translucent’, ‘iso_categorical’}. ‘translucent’ renders without lighting. ‘iso_categorical’ uses isosurface rendering to calculate lighting effects on labeled surfaces. The default value is ‘iso_categorical’.
rotate (float, 3-tuple of float, or n-D array.) – If a float convert into a 2D rotation matrix using that value as an angle. If 3-tuple convert into a 3D rotation matrix, using a yaw, pitch, roll convention. Otherwise assume an nD rotation. Angles are assumed to be in degrees. They can be converted from radians with np.degrees if needed.
scale (tuple of float) – Scale factors for the layer.
shear (1-D array or n-D array) – Either a vector of upper triangular values, or an nD shear matrix with ones along the main diagonal.
translate (tuple of float) – Translation values for the layer.
visible (bool) – Whether the layer visual is currently being displayed.

data#

Integer label data as an array or multiscale. Can be N dimensional. Every pixel contains an integer ID corresponding to the region it belongs to. The label 0 is rendered as transparent. Please note multiscale rendering is only supported in 2D. In 3D, only the lowest resolution scale is displayed.

Type:: array or list of array

multiscale#

Whether the data is a multiscale image or not. Multiscale data is represented by a list of array like image data. The first image in the list should be the largest. Please note multiscale rendering is only supported in 2D. In 3D, only the lowest resolution scale is displayed.

Type:: bool

metadata#

Labels metadata.

Type:: dict

num_colors#

Number of unique colors to use in colormap. DEPRECATED: set colormap directly, using napari.utils.colormaps.label_colormap.

Type:: int

features#

Features table where each row corresponds to a label and each column is a feature. The first row corresponds to the background label.

Type:: Dataframe-like

properties#

Properties for each label. Each property should be an array of length N, where N is the number of labels, and the first property corresponds to background.

Type:: dict {str: array (N,)}, DataFrame

color#

Custom label to color mapping. Values must be valid color names or RGBA arrays. While there is no limit to the number of custom labels, the the layer will render incorrectly if they map to more than 1024 distinct colors. DEPRECATED: set colormap directly, using napari.utils.colormaps.DirectLabelColormap.

Type:: dict of int to str or array

seed#

Seed for colormap random generator. DEPRECATED: set colormap directly, using napari.utils.colormaps.label_colormap.

Type:: float

opacity#

Opacity of the labels, must be between 0 and 1.

Type:: float

contiguous#

If True, the fill bucket changes only connected pixels of same label.

Type:: bool

n_edit_dimensions#

The number of dimensions across which labels will be edited.

Type:: int

contour#

If greater than 0, displays contours of labels instead of shaded regions with a thickness equal to its value. Must be >= 0.

Type:: int

brush_size#

Size of the paint brush in data coordinates.

Type:: float

selected_label#

Index of selected label. Can be greater than the current maximum label.

Type:: int

mode#

Interactive mode. The normal, default mode is PAN_ZOOM, which allows for normal interactivity with the canvas.

In PICK mode the cursor functions like a color picker, setting the clicked on label to be the current label. If the background is picked it will select the background label 0.

In PAINT mode the cursor functions like a paint brush changing any pixels it brushes over to the current label. If the background label 0 is selected than any pixels will be changed to background and this tool functions like an eraser. The size and shape of the cursor can be adjusted in the properties widget.

In FILL mode the cursor functions like a fill bucket replacing pixels of the label clicked on with the current label. It can either replace all pixels of that label or just those that are contiguous with the clicked on pixel. If the background label 0 is selected than any pixels will be changed to background and this tool functions like an eraser.

In ERASE mode the cursor functions similarly to PAINT mode, but to paint with background label, which effectively removes the label.

Type:: str

plane#

Properties defining plane rendering in 3D.

Type:: SlicingPlane

experimental_clipping_planes#

Clipping planes defined in data coordinates, used to clip the volume.

Type:: ClippingPlaneList

Details

property affine#

Extra affine transform to go from physical to world coordinates.

Type:: napari.utils.transforms.Affine

bind_key(key, func=<object object>, *, overwrite=False)#

Bind a key combination to a keymap.

Parameters:

keymap (dict of str: callable) – Keymap to modify.
key (str or ...) – Key combination. ... acts as a wildcard if no key combinations can be matched in the keymap (this will overwrite all key combinations further down the lookup chain).
func (callable, None, or ...) – Callable to bind to the key combination. If None is passed, unbind instead. ... acts as a blocker, effectively unbinding the key combination for all keymaps further down the lookup chain.
overwrite (bool, keyword-only, optional) – Whether to overwrite the key combination if it already exists.

Returns:

unbound – Callable unbound by this operation, if any.

Return type:

callable or None

Notes

Key combinations are represented in the form [modifier-]key, e.g. a, Control-c, or Control-Alt-Delete. Valid modifiers are Control, Alt, Shift, and Meta.

Letters will always be read as upper-case. Due to the native implementation of the key system, Shift pressed in certain key combinations may yield inconsistent or unexpected results. Therefore, it is not recommended to use Shift with non-letter keys. On OSX, Control is swapped with Meta such that pressing Command reads as Control.

Special keys include Shift, Control, Alt, Meta, Up, Down, Left, Right, PageUp, PageDown, Insert, Delete, Home, End, Escape, Backspace, F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9, F10, F11, F12, Space, Enter, and Tab

Functions take in only one argument: the parent that the function was bound to.

By default, all functions are assumed to work on key presses only, but can be denoted to work on release too by separating the function into two statements with the yield keyword:

@viewer.bind_key('h')
def hello_world(viewer):
    # on key press
    viewer.status = 'hello world!'

    yield

    # on key release
    viewer.status = 'goodbye world :('

To create a keymap that will block others, bind_key(..., ...)`.

property blending#

Determines how RGB and alpha values get mixed.

Blending.OPAQUE: Allows for only the top layer to be visible and corresponds to depth_test=True, cull_face=False, blend=False.
Blending.TRANSLUCENT: Allows for multiple layers to be blended with different opacity and corresponds to depth_test=True, cull_face=False, blend=True, blend_func=(‘src_alpha’, ‘one_minus_src_alpha’), and blend_equation=(‘func_add’).
Blending.TRANSLUCENT_NO_DEPTH: Allows for multiple layers to be blended with different opacity, but no depth testing is performed. Corresponds to depth_test=False, cull_face=False, blend=True, blend_func=(‘src_alpha’, ‘one_minus_src_alpha’), and blend_equation=(‘func_add’).
Blending.ADDITIVE: Allows for multiple layers to be blended together with different colors and opacity. Useful for creating overlays. It corresponds to depth_test=False, cull_face=False, blend=True, blend_func=(‘src_alpha’, ‘one’), and blend_equation=(‘func_add’).
Blending.MINIMUM: Allows for multiple layers to be blended together such that the minimum of each RGB component and alpha are selected. Useful for creating overlays with inverted colormaps. It corresponds to depth_test=False, cull_face=False, blend=True, blend_equation=(‘min’).

Type:: Blending mode

block_history()[source]#

classmethod create(data, meta: dict | None = None, layer_type: str | None = None) → Layer#

Create layer from data of type layer_type.

Primarily intended for usage by reader plugin hooks and creating a layer from an unwrapped layer data tuple.

Parameters:

data (Any) – Data in a format that is valid for the corresponding layer_type.
meta (dict, optional) – Dict of keyword arguments that will be passed to the corresponding layer constructor. If any keys in meta are not valid for the corresponding layer type, an exception will be raised.
layer_type (str) – Type of layer to add. Must be the (case insensitive) name of a Layer subclass. If not provided, the layer is assumed to be “image”, unless data.dtype is one of (np.int32, np.uint32, np.int64, np.uint64), in which case it is assumed to be “labels”.

Raises:

ValueError – If layer_type is not one of the recognized layer types.
TypeError – If any keyword arguments in meta are unexpected for the corresponding add_* method for this layer_type.

Examples

A typical use case might be to upack a tuple of layer data with a specified layer_type.

>>> data = (
...     np.random.random((10, 2)) * 20,
...     {'face_color': 'blue'},
...     'points',
