The use-case for region importing is precise definition, for example, when creating regular region grids in plant phenotyping or using external labeling and annotation sources.


In order to import region definition from an Excel file, use Data / Regions / Import regions menu command:



Extending our export regions example, we now include an extra note to reg2 region in Excel and save the file.




  • In order to import regions, we need to first remove existing once using Data / Regions / Remove all regions command (when specific scan or scans to be affected are selected in the Images list). Note, that this follows general perClass Mira design principle of not destructing any information behind user's back.
  • After removing the regions, we can use the Data / Regions / Import regions command, point to the updated Excel file


The new region definition now contains text note also for the region reg2. In this same way, we may create entirely new regions or change positions and class assignmnets of existing ones.
