SiverFast 8 ?????!!!
PostPosted: Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:00 pm
Sorry for the bad English but I used an automatic translator .
I tell my SilverFast for updating to version 8 :
1 step forward and one back over .
First of all, I appreciated that the pre-scan automatically detects the angle of the photos along with some other instrument for the calibration is found very useful.
The workflow has been rather annoying regressions compared to version 6 :
- It is virtually impossible to set as a preset destination folder , name , format (jpg tiff etc. . ) . As soon as you " Find panes " settings are set to a non-editable presets . So for you it should only scan in tif and only record in a given folder that you set : just ridiculous. The same thing happens in the advanced settings : if I work in cm do not see why reboot back to set itself in pixels.
- It would also be very helpful if the tab "Advanced Settings" can always be open , as well as " Find all the boxes" and " Scan sequence " .... Clik many useless ! So many little-used icons in the foreground while the recurrent hidden in the folds ! The previous version , although with some limitations , is a different pasta.
- The Preferences tab , which theoretically should give the possibility to manage everything first reported, merely interact with the various boards but not in the internal values : Practically useless.
I really hope to be contradicted , for now I was forced to go back to the previous version.
One thing seems clear : the workflow was clumsily organized by someone who does not work in the field.
