The `labelImg.py` code now includes:

Label Studio is a modern, multi-modal data annotation tool
=======
- **Dark Mode**: Toggleable from the View menu for low-light use.

LabelImg, the popular image annotation tool created by Tzutalin with the help of dozens contributors, is no longer actively being developed and has become part of the Label Studio community. Check out `Label Studio <https://github.com/heartexlabs/label-studio>`__, the most flexible open source data labeling tool for images, text, hypertext, audio, video and time-series data. `Install <https://labelstud.io/guide/install.html>`__ Label Studio and join the `slack community <https://label-studio.slack.com/>`__ to get started.

LabelImg is a graphical image annotation tool.

It is written in Python and uses Qt for its graphical interface.

Annotations are saved as XML files in PASCAL VOC format, the format used
by `ImageNet <http://www.image-net.org/>`__. Besides, it also supports YOLO and CreateML formats.

Installation
------------------

Get from PyPI but only python3.0 or above
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the simplest (one-command) install method on modern Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Fedora.

.. code:: shell

pip3 install labelImg
labelImg
labelImg [IMAGE_PATH] [PRE-DEFINED CLASS FILE]


Build from source
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Linux/Ubuntu/Mac requires at least `Python
2.6 <https://www.python.org/getit/>`__ and has been tested with `PyQt
4.8 <https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/intro>`__. However, `Python
3 or above <https://www.python.org/getit/>`__ and `PyQt5 <https://pypi.org/project/PyQt5/>`__ are strongly recommended.


Ubuntu Linux
^^^^^^^^^^^^

Python 3 + Qt5

.. code:: shell

sudo apt-get install pyqt5-dev-tools
sudo pip3 install -r requirements/requirements-linux-python3.txt
make qt5py3
python3 labelImg.py
python3 labelImg.py [IMAGE_PATH] [PRE-DEFINED CLASS FILE]

macOS
^^^^^

Python 3 + Qt5

.. code:: shell

brew install qt # Install qt-5.x.x by Homebrew
brew install libxml2

or using pip

pip3 install pyqt5 lxml # Install qt and lxml by pip

make qt5py3
python3 labelImg.py
python3 labelImg.py [IMAGE_PATH] [PRE-DEFINED CLASS FILE]


Python 3 Virtualenv (Recommended)

Virtualenv can avoid a lot of the QT / Python version issues

.. code:: shell

brew install python3
pip3 install pipenv
pipenv run pip install pyqt5==5.15.2 lxml
pipenv run make qt5py3
pipenv run python3 labelImg.py
[Optional] rm -rf build dist; pipenv run python setup.py py2app -A;mv "dist/labelImg.app" /Applications

Note: The Last command gives you a nice .app file with a new SVG Icon in your /Applications folder. You can consider using the script: build-tools/build-for-macos.sh


Windows
^^^^^^^

Install `Python <https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/>`__,
`PyQt5 <https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download5>`__
and `install lxml <http://lxml.de/installation.html>`__.

Open cmd and go to the `labelImg <#labelimg>`__ directory

.. code:: shell

pyrcc4 -o libs/resources.py resources.qrc
For pyqt5, pyrcc5 -o libs/resources.py resources.qrc

python labelImg.py
python labelImg.py [IMAGE_PATH] [PRE-DEFINED CLASS FILE]

If you want to package it into a separate EXE file

.. code:: shell

Install pyinstaller and execute:

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --hidden-import=pyqt5 --hidden-import=lxml -F -n "labelImg" -c labelImg.py -p ./libs -p ./

Windows + Anaconda
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Download and install `Anaconda <https://www.anaconda.com/download/#download>`__ (Python 3+)

Open the Anaconda Prompt and go to the `labelImg <#labelimg>`__ directory

.. code:: shell

conda install pyqt=5
conda install -c anaconda lxml
pyrcc5 -o libs/resources.py resources.qrc
python labelImg.py
python labelImg.py [IMAGE_PATH] [PRE-DEFINED CLASS FILE]

Use Docker
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. code:: shell

docker run -it \
--user $(id -u) \
-e DISPLAY=unix$DISPLAY \
--workdir=$(pwd) \
--volume="/home/$USER:/home/$USER" \
--volume="/etc/group:/etc/group:ro" \
--volume="/etc/passwd:/etc/passwd:ro" \
--volume="/etc/shadow:/etc/shadow:ro" \
--volume="/etc/sudoers.d:/etc/sudoers.d:ro" \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
tzutalin/py2qt4

make qt4py2;./labelImg.py

You can pull the image which has all of the installed and required dependencies. `Watch a demo video <https://youtu.be/nw1GexJzbCI>`__


Usage
-----

Steps (PascalVOC)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Build and launch using the instructions above.
2. Click 'Change default saved annotation folder' in Menu/File
3. Click 'Open Dir'
4. Click 'Create RectBox'
5. Click and release left mouse to select a region to annotate the rect
box
6. You can use right mouse to drag the rect box to copy or move it

The annotation will be saved to the folder you specify.

You can refer to the below hotkeys to speed up your workflow.

Steps (YOLO)
~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. In ``data/predefined_classes.txt`` define the list of classes that will be used for your training.

2. Build and launch using the instructions above.

3. Right below "Save" button in the toolbar, click "PascalVOC" button to switch to YOLO format.

4. You may use Open/OpenDIR to process single or multiple images. When finished with a single image, click save.

A txt file of YOLO format will be saved in the same folder as your image with same name. A file named "classes.txt" is saved to that folder too. "classes.txt" defines the list of class names that your YOLO label refers to.

Note:

- Your label list shall not change in the middle of processing a list of images. When you save an image, classes.txt will also get updated, while previous annotations will not be updated.

- You shouldn't use "default class" function when saving to YOLO format, it will not be referred.

- When saving as YOLO format, "difficult" flag is discarded.

Create pre-defined classes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can edit the
`data/predefined\_classes.txt <https://github.com/tzutalin/labelImg/blob/master/data/predefined_classes.txt>`__
to load pre-defined classes

Annotation visualization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Copy the existing lables file to same folder with the images. The labels file name must be same with image file name.

2. Click File and choose 'Open Dir' then Open the image folder.

3. Select image in File List, it will appear the bounding box and label for all objects in that image.

(Choose Display Labels mode in View to show/hide lablels)


Hotkeys
~~~~~~~

+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl + u | Load all of the images from a directory |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl + r | Change the default annotation target dir |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl + s | Save |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl + d | Copy the current label and rect box |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl + Shift + d | Delete the current image |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Space | Flag the current image as verified |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| w | Create a rect box |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| d | Next image |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| a | Previous image |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| del | Delete the selected rect box |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl++ | Zoom in |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Ctrl-- | Zoom out |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+
| ↑→↓← | Keyboard arrows to move selected rect box |
+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+

**Verify Image:**

When pressing space, the user can flag the image as verified, a green background will appear.
This is used when creating a dataset automatically, the user can then through all the pictures and flag them instead of annotate them.

**Difficult:**

The difficult field is set to 1 indicates that the object has been annotated as "difficult", for example, an object which is clearly visible but difficult to recognize without substantial use of context.
According to your deep neural network implementation, you can include or exclude difficult objects during training.

How to reset the settings
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In case there are issues with loading the classes, you can either:

1. From the top menu of the labelimg click on Menu/File/Reset All
2. Remove the `.labelImgSettings.pkl` from your home directory. In Linux and Mac you can do:
`rm ~/.labelImgSettings.pkl`
