Parameters
Name Description
data array

Optional. Data for populating the Message object.
↳ property Google\Cloud\Vision\V1\TextAnnotation\TextProperty

Additional information detected for the block.
↳ bounding_box Google\Cloud\Vision\V1\BoundingPoly

The bounding box for the block. The vertices are in the order of top-left, top-right, bottom-right, bottom-left. When a rotation of the bounding box is detected the rotation is represented as around the top-left corner as defined when the text is read in the 'natural' orientation. For example: * when the text is horizontal it might look like: 0----1 | | 3----2 * when it's rotated 180 degrees around the top-left corner it becomes: 2----3 | | 1----0 and the vertex order will still be (0, 1, 2, 3).
↳ paragraphs array<Google\Cloud\Vision\V1\Paragraph>

List of paragraphs in this block (if this blocks is of type text).
↳ block_type int

Detected block type (text, image etc) for this block.
