Opons Menu
The “Opons” menu is a drop down secon containing various sets of parameters that can be adjusted to
change the behavior of the soware, from default le types to default save directories, color palee lists, and
saved magnicaons and calibraon sengs. These available secons will each be covered in more detail on
the following pages.
Preferences... - The “Preferences...” opon brings up a series of menus that allows you to alter the core behav-
ior of the AmScope/ToupView soware, such as le paths and types to save les in, grids, cursor behavior, and
more.
Measurement... - The “Measurement...” opon opens a series of menus allowing changing of the label colors,
signicant gures, and other various opons regarding how measurement tool outputs are displayed.
Magnicaon... - The “Magnicaon...” opon will open a list of all the currently saved magnicaon opons.
Calibrate... - The “Calibrate...” tool allows a user to use a micrometer slide or ruler (any unit of known mea-
surement visible through the microscope) to tell the soware how many pixels (px) are in a unit of known
measurement (inches, millimeters, microns), allowing the soware to extrapolate real distances in a sample at
a given magnicaon. This process is covered in more detail in its own secon, as it is a frequently asked ques-
on.
Edit Dye List... - The “Dye List” is the list of stains commonly used and their emissions and excitaon baries, as
well as the color spectrum. This allows a user to add their own stains to the list, useful when using post pro-
cessing and individual color channeling to enhance contrast results in an image.
Auto Correcon... - This menu opon brings up the automac seng adjustments, allowing a user to adjust
how aggressively the automac funcons behave.
