can anyone help ????

Postby marcush » Thu Jan 22, 2004 4:28 pm

unfortunately i can so far not get any answer to my question from yesterday , but perhaps i should describe it more detailed :

So far I was used to work with v**s**n and SilverFast is new"butter"
to me ,as I`m looking for ways of best prescan workflow :

In v**s**n I started to make prescans from negative-stripe .
After having scanned the negative stripe I could easily toggle or switch between the single prescans in the preview window .
I think that`s pretty helpful before starting a batchscan, because
you can COMPARE your images through the preview window and if necessary do some color-corrections ,adjustments , toggle and
compare again between the prescans and based on this starting
your batchscan.
( I`m referring to similar negatives )

However in SilverFast I could so far not find-out how to work best
or similar like described above.
The problem is,that SilverFast seems to start every time a new
prescan and there seems no way to quickly switch or toggle between prescans to make imaging-comparisons possible over the preview
window.
Once the negative-stripe had be prescanned (or the ones I 'd chosen)
I thought I could toggle between the prescans with help of the
index-scan or dialogue ( this menue,where the shots appear as thumbnails) .
But result is,that SilverFast starts again new prescan for same
negative prescanned before.

So my question is : Is there any easy way to toggle or switch between
prescans based on preview window to make imaging
comparisons before starting a batchscan ?
Or do you have any other workflow idea for me ?

I hope someone can help in this matter

thanks

Marcus

As with the two other posts, and also via EMail :

This is only possible via overview, which means, SilverFast starts everytime again a Prescan.
If you scan this picture as HDR, and open them in the current SilverFast HDR 6, you could handle those picture on an Virtual Light Table. You could switch between those pictures, and see the change also on the VLT itself.

kind regards

Hello Mr Kratzenstein,
thanks for your speedy replies by email and posting.

Well - I managed the problem over the job-manager,
after having learnt and found-out more
about SilverFast and the included job-manager yesterday.
In deed the job-manager is a pretty powerful tool and
to my opinion is over the usual batchscan feature, because
you have the possibility to individually make your settings in
regard to the concerned prescan in the job-manager
before you are going to start your final scans.

And I realized , that I`m able to toogle or switch quickly
between the prescans over the job-manager
interface as to my needs (and without doing new prescans )
and finally to compare similar prescans over preview easily.
