pyXenium.contour.generate_contour_shells

generate_contour_shells(sdata, *, contour_key, inward, outward, step_size, contour_query=None, output_key=None, copy=False)

Generate independent inward/outward signed-distance shells for each contour.

Shells are produced per contour without unioning same-class annotations or applying Voronoi partitioning, so neighboring shell polygons may overlap.

Parameters:

• sdata (XeniumSlide)

• contour_key (str)

• inward (float)

• outward (float)

• step_size (float)

• contour_query (str | None)

• output_key (str | None)

• copy (bool)

Return type:

XeniumSlide | None
