The Field Image Properties Menu
If you right-click on the Field Image window, the following menu displays:
The options available on this menu are:
❑ Grid—When Zoom is set to greater than 400%, overlays the scan area with a
pixel by pixel grid:
If you Zoom out to less than 400%, the grid disappears.
Note: In the grid example above, the aspect ratio is on. Therefore, the pixels
appear to be rectangular rather than square.
❑ Zoom—Allows you to zoom directly to the magnification of your choice between
25% and 1600%. Like the Zoom In and Zoom Out icons.
❑ Aspect Ratio—The same as Display in Microns. Selects whether the X and Y
cursor positions are displayed in microns or in pixels. If Aspect Ratio is selected,
the view is in Micron mode.
❑ Pseudo Color—Displays the Field image in color based on pixel intensity. The
scale used to determine the color also displays:
You cannot have both the Pseudo Color and CompuColor color schemes selected
for the same window. If one is selected and you select the other, the first color
scheme is deselected.
Note: The pseudo color scale is set within iCys and cannot be changed.
❑ Fit Window to Image—When you generate a sub-window from the Scan View
window (by using the Copy command), use Fit Window to Image to make the
image fit to the size of the sub-window.
