File Menu
opens File menu administrative functions:
Open
shows a standard dialog for opening images previously stored to
a media. Supported digital file formats are TIF8/16/24, JPG and
BMP (see Chapter 5). The dialog shows, by default, the location
(path) last used to open or save files from the UI.
Save (Ctrl + S)
saves the image using the format, location and base of name set
by the last used Save As function in that display. An incremental
suffix with a selectable number of digits ensures that every image
is saved as a new file, e.g. Name_001.tif, Name_002.tif, etc.
Save As
opens a dialog for saving images, which provides an opportunity
to change the file name and location. An image can be saved in
TIF8/16/24, JPG or BMP file format.
The dialog shows, by default, the location and the name last used
to save / open a file in the selected display. A user can change a
location, name base or suffix, select different image format (Save
as type), and also choose whether to Save the image with /
without Databar and with / without overlaid graphics by ticking /
clearing the appropriate check box. The settings is remembered
per display and used for the subsequent Save actions.
