Sorting Image Files

The camera file list can be sorted by camera order, alphabetically, by date and time, or by the information in the notes field. Click on the buttons above each column to select that column as the one to control the sorting. Click on the triangle of horizontal lines above the right side scroll bar to select ascending or descending order. The button will appear as for ascending order, for descending order. Click on the camera button on the top left side of the item list to select the original camera order.

Sorting the file list affects the list only, it does not sort the files on the controller hard drive.

Adding (more) Notes to Your Pictures

The image notes saved with each file can be edited or augmented after the scan is completed from within the File Manager. First select (highlight) the image whose notes are to be edited, then click the Info button to enter the Info Editor. Changes or additions can be made to the Notes text, up to its maximum capacity of 255 characters. The 255 character limit includes all the automatically saved text in addition to any User Entered Text. Click the Done button to save any changes and leave this dialog.

Exporting Notes

All the file notes for images on the controller disk can be exported to a file by clicking the Export Notes button at the lower right corner of the File Manager window. A Save File dialog will appear, allowing the user to select the location and name for the notes file. The note file is a standard text file and can be examined and edited with any text editor.
