New Feature: Split and Merge Spot Borders

Posted by ludesi in How to's in REDFIN, New features in REDFIN

It seems that despite the hot summer weeks productivity at Ludesi has if anything increased, with one new feature or improvement being churned out after another.

This time we have implemented something that we know you have been wanting for a while: merging and splitting spot borders.

Before we dive into describing these new tools to you, here’s a quick overview of what editing possiblities you have in REDFIN today:

spot editing options

As usual, you access these tools by opening your results in REDFIN and clicking on the “Edit Spots” button in the Spot View.

But now, let us introduce you to the final two tools in the spot editing toolbox:

1. Split Border

Whenever you see a spot border that encompasses more than one spot, this is the tool to go for. In the spot editing mode, select “Split border” from the menu on the right and you will see that your cursor changes to a little knife. Now all you need to do is to draw a line where you would like to cut the border in two.

SplitBorder1

Release the mouse and the spot borders will split exactly along the line you have drawn.

SplitBorder2

If you are not happy with the split, just click “Undo” and try again.

2. Merge Borders

Sometimes the spot detection has been too sensitive and two or more spot centers have been detected where really there is only one. With the Merge Borders tool you can easily combine neighbouring spot borders into one border. All you have to do is draw a line showing which spot borders you would like to connect.

MergeBorder1

Release the mouse and the two neighbouring borders are combined into one spot border.

As with all editing tools, if you regret your last action, click “Undo” to reset the previous state.

We hope you enjoy the new tools and that they will make working with your results in REDFIN even easier!

As always, we welcome any feedback you have for us.
