Stch
The “Stch” tool is used when the user needs a larger eld of view in a single image than the eld of view the
camera and microscope are capable of. This is done by “stching” mulple captured images together at the
edges, creang a single, larger image. This could be in a line or in a grid, depending on how many photos the
user needs to capture, and how large of a eld of view you ulmately need.
1. Begin by opening up the “Stch” tool, which can be found under the “Process” menu, or opened with the
keyboard shortcut “Shi+T.”
2. The new window that opens is the “Stch” menu, which allows the user to capture an image, then move
to the next area they’d like to capture, up to as many photos as needed to create the grid or line to cover the
area needed. The “Snap” buon will snap a shot of the area currently in view, and display it. You may use this
in conjuncon with the preview in the viewing area to line up the next snapshot to whichever direcon you’d
prefer.
Connue unl you have taken enough snapshots to cover the desired area of interest (in a grid or line). For
best results, try to slightly overlap the image edges in whichever direcon you are moving (horizontally or ver-
cally). Press “Next” when ready to connue.
