Matrix to single row

Hello,

I need to convert a square cv::Mat to a single row. Right now I iterate over its rows and append them horizontally (cv::hconcat) to a separate matrix to get my single row matrix, but is there perhaps a better way?

Best regards, Hans

Mat row = mat.reshape(1,1);

and it even comes almost for free, as it's just adjusting the Mat's row/col members, no copy involved.

Hmm, thought I had tried that but it didn't work back then for some reason. Tried it again and seems to work now, hehe, thanks !

Ah, I tried it again in another situation, reshape only works for continuous matrices, that was the problem I was having ... any reshape call for that?

yea, have to admit, that the arguments for reshape are quite confusing

oh, imho it won't work at all for non-continuous Mat's. iterating is your only option there

Hmm, too bad, was hoping for some cv function.

or cloning beforehand and then reshaping it
