Initial zoom

Fit Height resizes the image (zoom) to fit the height of the program window.

FitToWidth resizes the image (zoom) to fit the width of the program window.

Best Fit returns the best zoom value to stretch the image in the program.

 

Zoom Filter

ZoomFilter specifies the filter to apply in zoom-in operations.

The fastest way to zoom a picture is to set ZoomFilter to None.

 

If you need the best quality we suggest: Hermite, Bell, BSpline, Lanczos3, Mitchell, Nearest, Bilinear, Bicubic.

If you need speed we suggest: Triangle, Linear, FastLinear.

For projects (white on black or black on white) we suggest: ProjectBW and ProjectWB.

 

Window State

Represents how the form appears on the screen.

 

Screen units specifies the measurement unit used for displaying image.

 

Window Size

Specifies the height and width (in pixels) of the form.

 

Thumbnails Size

Width and Height is the width and height of the thumbnail.

 

Startup Mode allows to set the program mode at opening the file and at starting.

Available values: View, Select, Eraser, Text, Draw, Annotation, Current.

 

When Auto Adjust DPI is checked and last loaded/scanned image has horizontal DPI (dot per inch) not equal to vertical DPI, program resizes the image making DPIX=DPIY.

 

Image Caching

ImageCaching allows you to speed up thumbnails painting, saving each drawn image to a cache. This is enabled by default.

 

You can change a Mouse Wheel Actions (scrolling, zooming).

 

Mouse Wheel Position

If Mouse Wheel Action is Zoom, Wheel Position specifies where the zoom acts.

The default (Center) is the center of the control, otherwise (Mouse) zooms from the mouse's position.

 

Mouse Wheel Invert Direction inverts wheel direction.

 

Color Management System (CMS) allows to render the image with the original colors.

 

Native Pixel Format

By setting this property to True, you disable the conversion of paletted images, gray scale and all other formats to 24 bit or 1 bit.

By default, program converts all paletted, gray scale images and other formats to 24 bit (true color). Only black/white images are stored in the original format with 1 bit per pixel.

 

 

Acquire tab

 

 

You can select a device type for acquiring.

 

If Scanner dialog visible is checked, the scanner user interface is enabled when Acquire command is called.

DPI is DPI (Dots per Inch) in the X-axis.

Color is the type of pixel data that a scanner is capable of acquiring.

Valid values are Black&white, Gray scale and full RGB (24 bit).

Feeder Enabled enables the feed loader mechanism when present.  Use this property to disable the feed loader.

If Auto Feed is checked, the scanner will automatically feed the next page from the document feeder.

If Duplex Enabled is checked, the scanner scans both sides of a paper; otherwise, the scanner will scan only one side.

Use this property to enable/disable duplex mode.

The fastest way to zoom a picture is to set ZoomFilter to None.

 

If you need the best quality we suggest: Hermite, Bell, BSpline, Lanczos3, Mitchell, Nearest, Bilinear, Bicubic.

If you need speed we suggest: Triangle, Linear, FastLinear.
