Making a prescan

When using an index scan, select the index frame(s) to be pres- canned. Click the prescan button in the main window. Double clicking on the index frame will also activate the prescan even if no thumbnail is displayed in the frame. The prescan window will be displayed auto- matically.

The procedure to cancel the prescan is the same as the index scan, see the canceling the index scan section on page (p.33).

After changing between the 35mm film holder and slide-mount hold-

er, the first index thumbnail may be prescanned even if another thumbnail is selected. Reselect the thumbnail, and make the prescan again.

Grab tool

When an image is larger than the display area, the grab tool can be used to scroll the image. Click the grab button on the tool bar. Click and drag on the image to scroll. This tool cannot be used with the fit-to-window function (p. 35).

Magnifying tool

The display image can be enlarged or reduced. Click the magnifying button on the tool bar. Click on the image to enlarge. To reduce, hold down the control (Windows) or option key (Macintosh) and click on the image. When the image has reached the magnification limit, the plus or minus sign in the magnifying icon will disappear. This tool cannot be used with the fit-to-window function (p. 35).

Auto cropping

Auto cropping eliminates the blank space around the image area. Pressing the auto-cropping but- ton cycles through its three positions: crop to outside edge, crop to inside edge, and entire win- dow. The cropping frame is indicated by a marquee (dotted line). The cropping area can also be adjusted manually (p. 38).

Clicking the auto-cropping button once will bring the cropping frame to the outside edge of the image area. Clicking the auto-cropping button a second time will bring the cropping frame to the inside edge of the image area. Clicking the auto-cropping button a third time will return the cropping frame to its original position. When using the image-cor- rection tools, only the cropped area is displayed.
