function GroupTPAEx(const TPA: TPointArray; const XMax, YMax: Integer): T2DPointArray;

Availability

• Contained a bug in SCAR Divi 3.26 - SCAR Divi 3.27 that caused the initial element in every subarray of the result to be duplicated inside of that subarray.
• In SCAR Divi 3.26 - SCAR Divi 3.27 the algorithm was implemented incorrectly and split every point of 'TPA up into a subarray and then included every other point within a distance of every point in that subarray.

Description

This function splits a given TPointArray TPA into separate TPointArrays, by grouping points that are within the given distance of the first point of each subarray. If a point isn't within the given distance of any first point of the subarrays, a new subarray is created containing that point as first one. The distance is given separately for the x and y components of the points in XDist and YDist. The function returns a T2DPointArray containing all the resulting TPointArrays.

Example

var
  TPA: TPointArray;
  ATPA: T2DPointArray;
  i: Integer;

begin
  ClearDebug;
  TPA := [Point(2, 5), Point(6, 9), Point(0, 0), Point(5, 5), Point(1, 1), Point(5, 7), Point(-2, 0)];
  ATPA := GroupTPAEx(TPA, 2, 1);
  for i := 0 to High(ATPA) do
    WriteLn(TPAToStr(ATPA[i]));
end.

Output:

(2,5)
(6,9)
(0,0);(1,1);(-2,0)
(5,5)
(5,7)
