The preview itself is continuously updated (at least with the LiDe 50, which I just tested). As far as i know no SANE frontend does the same when doing a real scan. >From the SANE api, this is possible as the scanned data is continuously read by the frontend. So it's just that nobody has implemented that feature yet. > Another question, if I do B&W scans on sane they don't have much > depth instead on Vuescan they have much more greys, is this fixed in > the last version of sane? I guess this is about gray mode (not lineart)? With the Lide 50 it looks like this for me (xsane, no gamma/brightness/contrast corrections): http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/tmp/gray.png I.e. the darkest four blacks look the same. However, I have no comparison how Windows or Vuescan does this. Bye, Henning
