- UPDATE 3.3 ( /6/4/93)
- ----------------------
-
-
-
-
- SIMPLE FILE WRITE In the case of the simple file write is activated
- with one bank and the CM option (Color Map save) ,
- only the color scale of the bank is written on the
- color map file.
-
- SAVE/RESTORE SCALE It is now possible to save one color scale on file.
-
- FREE FORMAT READ With the option "direct access" the bank and plane
- selection are kept on the second panel.
-
- SAVE_CONTEXT A bug on SUN computers is corrected.
-
- FILL_COLOR A small window shows the selected color.
-
- MANUAL BALANCE The selected zone is defined with the mouse.
-
- FAST STRETCH Allows to fit the color scale within the pixel
- values range faster than before.
-
- PIXEL_VALUE In the main menu and "Pixel values" a small window
- shows the coordinates of the mouse at the right of
- the screen.
-
- It's possible to move this window. Just click
- with the right hand button into the small window.
- Wait for the panel (Move .....) then always
- pushing the button move to the good place and
- release the mouse button.
- (The same move is used to replace the
- small window at the bottom of the screen showing
- the pixel values)
-
- It is possible to introduce a grid with
- geographical coordinates the file is named:
- $home/.sphinx_geog
- ex:
- vi .sphinx_geog
- # Geographical coordinates
- # line column latitude longitude
- 10 10 50.00 1.0
- 500 500 100 30
-
- The numbers in the option "physical value"
- are saved in a file named:
- $home/.sphinx_physval
-
- - Option Recording on file
- The record is done only if you push the
- left hand button of the mouse over the good pixel.
-
- PRINT (24 to 8 bit (classif))
-
- A new algorithm is implemented showing the 24 bit image
- with a color look as close as possible of a
- 24 bit screen visualization.
-
- Example:
- You have to modify the size of an image where the
- color map is not linear (The pixel values are just
- pointers to the color look up table).
- If you use directly image resize with a bicubic spline
- the result image will be very noisy.
-
- To get a good result you have to use:
- (PRINT)Scale 8 bit to 24 .
- To get the R G B components of the pixels.
- (EDIT) Image resize.
- To resize the image in the 3 banks.
- (PRINT)Scale 24 bit to 8 bit (Classif)
- To build a 8 bit color scale.
-
-
-
- VERSION 3.44 (7/9/93)
- ======================
-
- The internal conversion from pixel values to X11 colors
- are modified.
-
- The following pixel value list shows the pixels of the
- image which are identical in the visualisation display (Same color).
- (They are identical in the display window not
- in the internal image and computational routines).
- ( 9 values are kept for X11 purposes panels .. markers.. )
-
- 14 -- 15
- 42 -- 43
- 71 -- 72
- 99 -- 100
- 128 -- 129
- 156 -- 157
- 184 -- 185
- 213 -- 214
- 241 -- 242
-
-
- In mode (TEST MENU) (SET/UNSET X11 TRUE SCALE)
-
- In this mode only 3 values are kept for X11 purposes panels .. markers.
-
- 96 -- 97
- 160 -- 161
- 224 -- 225
-
-
-
- DRAW COLOR LEGEND: Option DRAW RAINBOW:
-
- The scale direction (right to left , left to right)
- ( up to bottom ...) is done with the direction from
- the starting point to the ending point of the rectangle
- drawn with the mouse.
-
-
- FREE FORMAT READ
-
- The linear tranformation from the pixel of the screen to the
- pixel of the file is displayed.
- (original file pixel = a * screen pixel + b)
-
-
- SCREEN SAVER
- After 5 mn of no use the screen is replaced by
- a user selected image (in gif format) named:
- $home/.sphinx_saver
- To disable the function "screen saver" you have to introduce
- the option -NoSaver in the sphinx run shell.
-
-
- if you have the version >= to 3.2 just transfer and replace the
- executable of your computer (sphinx.bin)
-
