Info

Processing Focus Stacks Auto-Align Dialog Box Once the dialog box is up, you want to check the AUTO radio button and the GEOMETRIC DISTORTION check box, as shown here, and hit OK. The program will then proceed to align the images in all the layers with one another. Depending on various considerations, this can take less then a minute to thirty minutes or more. In fact, the program will even say “Not Responding,” but have patience, wait, and it will return. 92
Processing Focus Stacks Auto-Blend Dialog Box When the images have been aligned, you will be see that the image may be shaped differently than before. Next, go back to the EDIT tab at the top of the screen and this time select the AUTO-BLEND LAYERS option and make sure you have checked the STACK LAYERS option and the SEAMELESS TONES AND COLORS option. Press OK. The program will now blend all the stacks into a single image. This takes less time than alignment. 93
