The background image is the source of the data for the traces. It is used as a reference or the example to follow and reproduce with the provided graphics primitives.

  • The Load button leads to a Windows Open File Dialog, with a filter with many image extensions, and an image preview.
    The supported image formats are: *.cr2, *.crw, *,dng, *.nef, *.raw, *.orf, *.nrw, *.dcm, *.dic, *.dicom, *.v2, *.dds, *.gif, *.jp2, *.j2k, *.jpc, *.j2c, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.jpe, *.jif, *.wdp, *.hdp, *.jxr, *.dcx, *.pcx, *.psd, *.png, *.pxm, *.ppm, *.pgm, *.pbm, *.tga, *.targa, *.vda, *.icb, *.vst, *.pix, *.tif, *.tiff, *.fax, *.g3n, *.g3f, *.xif, *.bmp, *.dib, *.rle, *.cur, *.ico, *.webp, *.wmf, *.wbmp.

  • The application can perform several image processing operations.

  • The background image can be zoomed using the mouse wheel or the Tools Panel Display buttons (+ -), and panned using the bottom and right scrollbars.

  • Clicking on the Save button opens a Windows Save Dialog, with preview and support for many image formats: *.dcm, *.dic, *.dicom, *.v2, *.dds, *.gif, *.jp2, *.j2k, *.jpc, *.j2c, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.jpe, *.jif, *.wdp, *.hdp, *.jxr, *.dcx, *.pcx, *.psd, *.png, *.pxm, *.ppm, *.pgm, *.pbm, *.tga, *.targa, *.vda, *.icb, *.vst, *.pix. *.tif, *.tiff, *.fax, *.g3n, *.g3f, *.xif, *.bmp, *.dib, *.rle, *.ico, *.wbmp.

  • This open/save feature is independent of the traces: it can be used to convert to/from different graphics formats. The loaded background image from many different graphics formats can be saved in any other supported format.

Only the image formats in the dialog filters are accepted. Other extensions or internal image structures are ignored.
