filmscanners: Vuescan feedback

2001-03-09 Thread Clark Guy
Hi, Ed! I would like to second the suggestion about allowing the reversal of the order of scan. To be able to type in 6-1 and have it scan positions 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 would be a good thing. Better yet, being able to type in the actual desired order of scans would be wonderful! Speaking of

With all due respect, for some of us a more precise crop will help a lot with limiting white point determination and constraining color adjustment calculations to the desired crop areas. For now we can fuzz that with the buffer (and border) controls; but a precise crop is definitely worth

What about subtle rotation of the crop box in the scan window? If VueScan currently does this, then I don't know how to use it. I have had a few instance of the slide being a little "off", where I think "off" is on the order of + or - 5 degrees.

I think that this makes a good point regarding Ed's intent for VueScan. His dilemma, if he has one, is how far to take VueScan toward replicating other photo manipulation software rather than staying confined to a scanning program that feeds high quality scans for manipulation in those programs.
