Using PictureToy
PictureToy allows you to superimpose pictures and texts on still images (such as photographs and maps) displayed on the desktop.
It also allows you to easily place arrows on specific areas of a computer map, or to overlay photographs taken with a digital camera with illustrations.
You can select the underlay image either at the start up of PictureToy from other Sony made software, or directly from PictureToy.
The original image file of an underlay image remains unchanged.
To learn the names and functions of the Operation Panel, refer to the online help of PictureToy.
