# Graphics

Use the Graphics tab to select what results to see from using the Blob tool. Some of the edit control image buffers appear only if certain types of results are selected.

Check Show Input Image Mask to show a graphic representing the run-time mask, if you supplied one. The graphic is shown on the Current.InputImage display.

Results appear in the LastRun.InputImage and the LastRun.BlobImage and LastRun.BlobImageUnfiltered buffers if enabled.
