Parameters:
- window_name: Name of the window that will display image/video
- width: New window width (integer type)
- height: New window height (integer type)
Return Value: It doesn't return anything
Image used for below examples:
Example 1:
# Python program to explain cv2.resizeWindow() method
# Importing cv2
import cv2
# Path
path = 'C:/Users/art/OneDrive/Desktop/geeks.png'
# Reading an image in default mode
image = cv2.imread(path)
# Naming a window
cv2.namedWindow("Resized_Window", cv2.WINDOW_NORMAL)
# Using resizeWindow()
cv2.resizeWindow("Resized_Window", 300, 700)
# Displaying the image
cv2.imshow("Resized_Window", image)
cv2.waitKey(0)
Output:
Example 2:
# Python program to explain cv2.resizeWindow() method
# Importing cv2
import cv2
# Path
path = 'C:/Users/art/OneDrive/Desktop/geeks.png'
# Reading an image in grayscale mode
image = cv2.imread(path, 0)
# Naming a window
cv2.namedWindow("Resize", cv2.WINDOW_NORMAL)
# Using resizeWindow()
cv2.resizeWindow("Resize", 700, 200)
# Displaying the image
cv2.imshow("Resize", image)
cv2.waitKey(0)
