Photodocumentation
Simple image capture and preparation has never been more flexible using NIS-Elements Documentation. This comprehensive solution includes intuitive camera controls, microscope and device controls, annotation tools and saving and retrieving functions from an uncomplicated and fully-searchable database. The report generator collects images and associated data, auto-updating as necessary, and saves or exports to a printer or PDF file.
Key Features:
Image Preparation: Annotation and Enhancement
Annotations such as text, arrows, graticules, calibrated scale bars and measurements are saved with each image. Annotations can be displayed and hidden at any time. In addition, it is possible to burn the annotation overlays into the image for display in other programs or for file sharing in other programs. NIS-Elements also contains various image enhancement features such as contrast adjustments, smoothing, sharpening and edge detection filters. A preview of the image operation is available to see the results before accepting the change.
Database Option
One of the key modules in NIS-Elements is the advanced but easy-to-use database functionality. You can save an image directly into the database with one mouse click and filtering, sorting and multiple grouping can be easily performed by drag and drop. Detail, thumbnail, icon and grid views are available on both the database image and the images on the file system.
ZoomReport Generation
Report generation is a key feature of the database. Report templates can be created with customized text, graphs, and image files such as company logos or other picture files (shown below). The ‘Report Generator’ can also automatically pull information stored with the image. Modifiable text fields will auto update with the image information that is specified in the table of the database. Reports can be saved, directly printed and/or converted to a PDF file.
ZoomMacros and API (Advanced Interpreter) Option
Flexibility in custom tailoring the software for specific applications is possible through simple built-in macro recording and the Advanced Macro Builder (API (advanced interpreter)). The optional API allows for more complex programming such as conditional statements, looping, arrays, operators and local and global variables.
