Program Preferences
The Preferences dialog box looks like this:
-
Language. Change the program language by selecting another from the drop-down list.
-
Initial Scale. This parameter defines the way the image is scaled in the Image Window after opening. The parameter can take one of two values:
image scaling Fit to View. The scale adjusts so that the image will be completely visible in the Image Window;
- if the option 100% is checked, image doesn’t scale. Generally, when the scale = 100%, only part of the image will be visible.
-
Hints Panel. When you hover over parameters and buttons with the cursor you can see a brief description of them in the Hints field. You can choose how the hints will be shown:
-
The Position option lets you set the location of the field:
- Under Image Window. It shows the hints in the main window, under the image. This mode is useful if there is not enough space by height to dispay this field under the settings;
- Under Settings Panel. Select this to show hints at the bottom of the right part, under the settings;
- Hide. Use this option if you do not need the hints.
-
The Color option lets you set the color scheme of the field:
- Gray Panel - a white font on a gray background;
- Yellow Panel - a navy/black font on a yellow background.
-
