LaserSoft Imaging

I find it too easy to turn off MultiScan while I am in the middle of archiving 35mm slides into 64bit HDRi files.

Then, when I discover it has been turned off, how can I tell which files were scanned without MultiScan?

I want to know this so I can go back and re-scan them.

Dear Michael,

there is no way to see it at the file.
If a picture have to much image noise, scan it with MultiScan again.

In that case, can I make two suggestions:

1. Put a tag or 'info' into a file that states if it was scanned MultiScan, or

2. Move the 'Delete Frame' button so that it is no longer next to the MultiScan button. Because the UI is slow, it is easy to attribute the lack of response to the 'Delete Frame' button to be caused by UI delays, and not realize that it is actually because of pressing the wrong button. Or, make the MultiScan setting in the 'Options' dialog where it is more likely to be protected from accidentally pressing.

I found a solution and would like to post it here in case others come with the same problem.

When I opened the folder containing the scanned images, I could tell the MultiScan images from the ordinary (single) scan images by looking at their 'Date Modified' and calculating the interval between them during the batch scan.

On my system, MultiScan files are 11 to 17 minutes apart, while normal single scan files were saved only 5 minutes apart.

I was thus able to go through my recently scanned files to check if any had accidentally been scanned in single scan mode.
