Labelimg: Background-Only images' annotation

[VanitarNordic]

Hello,

in some datasets, we have background-only images. it means they have no object of interest. in this case we should pass these tags with black coordinates I believe:

<bndbox>
  <xmin></xmin>
  <ymin></ymin>
  <xmax></xmax>
  <ymax></ymax>
</bndbox>

Can you implement a checkbox in the form to tick if the image is only-background, then save an xml with this difference?

or maybe the <object> tag should be removed totally. I think this is more correct.

By memory, clicking on the verify button allows you to save the xml associated to the image without adding <object> tag :)

I think this has been resolved, but please feel free to reopen if that's not the case.
