Neat Image user guide / Additional tools Component Viewer
The Component Viewer is intended for detailed examination of both channel and frequency components of images. Examining the components helps to find the optimum filter settings easier and faster. Also, it helps to find flat featureless image areas for noise analysis and to generally examine the channel and frequency components of images.
- Working in the Device Noise Profile or Noise Filter Settings tab of the Filtration Job Editor, open the Component Viewer window by clicking on (the Component Viewer button) on the toolbar or by selecting the Tools | Component Viewer menu item. The window will pop up to show the image components of the image area selected in the main Neat Image window (make a selection in the current tab
in the Filtration Job Editor window).
Using the Component Viewer in the Noise Filter Settings tab, you can switch between the original and filtered image (or image component) by clicking on one of the viewers in the Component Viewer window.
Examine individual channel and frequency components of the image (use the radio-button selectors in the Component Viewer). When used in the Noise Filter Settings tab, you can easily identify the components that do not get enough noise reduction and adjust the corresponding filter settings.
You can resize the Component Viewer window by dragging its right edge. The orientation of the window can be changed with (the Rotate window button).
The image viewers can be adjusted with the zoom and contrast controls as well as with the Auto Gray Level control: .
