Dear users,

I am working with the watershed algorithm to mark grains and I am
wondering what exactly is meant by the parameter drop size in
percentage. I interpreted this in that way that a drop with a size of
0.1% has a size of 0.001µm² in a 1µm² picture. Is that right?

If so, in a 1µm² picture with 512x512 pixels this drop would have a size
of approximately 272 px², so that the smallest lake/grain marked in the
end should be bigger or equal to 272px², shouldn't it? But I get a lot
of marked grains smaller than this size in my picture (e.g. I can erase
a lot of drops via a surface threshold of lets say 60px²). Which mistake
did I make in my thoughts?

Or is percentage of a volume meant and if so what scale is taken as the
"height" of the volume?

One more question apart from that came into my mind:
Can a drop go into a minimum that is smaller than the size of the drop?
I.e. is the drop "really" a fluid and can change its shape?

Unfortunately I did not find information about this on the Gwyddion web
pages. I would be very thankful for any help.

Best regards,
Jens Trollmann
