ÒOkÓ creates a new scene for the selected photo; the new scene will appear in the
scene pool after the currently active scene.
To avoid distortion, the pictures are loaded into the scene in accordance with their aspect
ratio. The 16:9 picture format is also supported. If the format of the imported picture does
not match the aspect ratio of the television set or TV monitor, then the unused screen
area is masked in black.
2.3 Export to photo memory card
Use this menu to save the first frame of a scene to a photo memory card.
The following functions are available:
•
ãMemory cardÒ allows you to choose the memory card, to which you want to export
the first picture of the scene. This function is only available, if you are working with
SMART EDIT. It is also only active if you are running the Ò6 in 1 Card DriveÒ and if
the Card Reader is connected. Without this peripheral, the option ãCasablanca
SmartMediaÒ is set to default.
•
ÒPicture formatÓ defines the picture format that is to be generated. There are two
options from which to choose:
ÓFull frameÓ: the picture consists of two half-frames, one after the other.
ÓHalf frameÓ: the picture consists of a half-frame that is doubled so that the picture
height is equivalent to that of a full frame.
•
ÒPicture qualityÓ defines the quality with which the picture is to be saved, whereby
users can choose ÒLowÓ, ÒNormalÓ or ÒHighÓ. Note: the higher the quality, the more
memory required to store the picture on the photo memory card!
•
ÒCancelÓ closes the menu without carrying out a function.
•
ÒOkÓ saves the picture to the photo memory card.
The aspect ratio will not be changed during export.
2.4 Import for other programs
This button allows you to import up to 10 pictures from a memory card. These pictures
will be saved in an internal archive, which other programs can access later.
The following functions are available:
•
ãMemory cardÒ allows you to choose the memory card, from which you want to im-
port the first picture of the scene. This function is only available, if you are working
with SMART EDIT. It is also only active if you are running the Ò6 in 1 Card DriveÒ
and if the Card Reader is connected. Without this peripheral, the option ãCasa-
blanca SmartMediaÒ is set to default.
•
ãImage informationÒ activates a window showing saved information of the activated
picture displayed in the upper window.
•
ãPreviewÒ opens a menu for viewing an enlargement of the selected photo.
•
ãCancelÒ closes the menu without carrying out a function.
•
ãOkÒ activates a window which allows you to rename files and save internally. If
you wish to save more than 10 files, you will be asked to delete one file. This
window makes it possible to choose that file and thus make way for another.
