CD ROM user guide The contact sheet for the selected PhotoCD is opened on the desktop. 12.4 Loading an image Choose the image you wish to load by clicking on its thumbnail. This opens a control window containing the same thumbnail. You use the control window to choose image display settings prior to displaying the image itself. Within the control window you can set the - resolution at which the image will be displayed - orientation in which the image will be displayed - palette to be used to generate the image - use of dithering in the image generation. The control window also displays the colour details (the colour depth in bpp, and the display resolution in dpi) of the current display mode. Note that you cannot alter the current display mode within the control window. Page 40
CD ROM user guide * Changing the image's resolution It is a good idea to work with a low resolution image in the desktop, and then export at a higher resolution if required. The higher the resolution of an image, the larger the size of that image, and the longer it takes to load and manipulate. To change the resolution at which the image will be displayed, click on the menu icon to the right of the box containing the current resolution setting. Choose the new resolution from the list displayed. * Changing the image's orientation By default, orientation is set to 0 for a landscape image, and 90 or 270 for a portrait image. To change the orientation at which the image will be displayed, click on the menu icon to the right of the box containing the current orientation setting. The list of orientations displayed includes four options with which you can flip the image in the vertical plane prior to rotation. Choose the new orientation from this list. * Changing the default palette By default, the palette used to generate the image is the default WIMP palette for the current display mode. To change the palette, click on the menu icon to the right of the box containing the current palette details, and choose another palette from the list displayed. * Enabling and disabling dithering By default, dithering during image generation is enabled. If you wish to change this setting, simply click on the button displaying the current setting. The legend on this button will toggle between a tick and a cross to indicate whether dithering is enabled or disabled. 12.5 Displaying the image Set the display options you wish to use, bearing in mind that the higher the resolution setting, the larger the size of the image, and the longer it will take to load and manipulate. You can then display the image. If at this point you do not wish to continue, click on the control window's Cancel button. To display the image, click on the OK button. Once you have displayed the image, further options become available via the Image menu. To display the Image menu, click Menu anywhere within the displayed image window. The menu has the following options: - Image info gives image details extracted from information pressed on the PhotoCD disc at the point at which the disc was pressed. If the disc was pressed in a single session, the Last Modified box contains a dash, otherwise it contains the date when the last session was written. If a copyright file is contained on the disc, the copyright filename is shown in the appropriate box. You can view the copyright information by clicking in the Read Rights button at the bottom of the window. If no copyright file is present, the Read Rights button is greyed out. - Save displays a Save box which allows you to save the image as a sprite file appropriate to the current display mode. - Export displays the Export menu which offers you a choice of formats in which to export the current image. - Resolution allows you to define the resolution at which the image is to be saved to disc. - Orientation allows you to define the orientation at which the image is to be saved to disc. - 24 bit sprite allows you to save the currently selected image as a 24 bit sprite. 24 bit sprites give professional quality output on an appropriate printer (or other output device); This output is the best you can get.
