To analyse specific regions of the image’s grain structure, you need to use sub-region analysis boxes. If you are not satisfied with an analysis of the entire image, you can use sub-regions to constrain the analysis to focus on regions of interest. You will probably need to adjust the position or size of some boxes, or delete them. Following are basic procedures for working with boxes.
