Ch. 3 – Basic Program Mode2. Position the cursor on the image in the pan window: it changes from a magnifying glass to a fourarrowpointer.3. To move to a different area of the image, either left click on the rectangle and drag it to the newlocation, or left click on the new location.Image Date/TimeThe Image Date/Time feature pulls up the date and time associated with the capture of an image. When youcapture an image, the SPOT software remembers the date and time of the image capture. When you savethe image, even if this is many hours later, the program sets the Created date and time of the image file tothe date and time of the original image capture.Note: The date/time feature is synchronized to the date and time setting in your computer..When image files are transferred over networks, the Created date and time is sometimes reset to the dateand time of the transfer, making it an unreliable indicator of the image capture time. Because TIFF andJPEG format images have tags both for the Created date and the original capture date and time, networktransfers do not affect them. If reliable image capture date and time information is important to your work,you should save images in either TIFF or JPEG format.When you select the Image Date/Time option from the View menu, a dialog box displays the date and timeassociated with the capture.• For non-TIFF, non-JPEG format image files, this is the Created date/time, as explained above.• For TIFF and JPEG format image files, this is the TIFF/JPEG tag date and time.• For SPOT Database images (PCs only) this is the original date and time that was stored in the databasefile.Full ScreenView a full screen version of an image – i.e., without the SPOT menus or toolbars or the Windowsnavigation bar.
