converts to “No Pop-ups” so that if you want to disable the pop-ups just click this button again. Selectively, you
may enable pop-up text for certain images by searching the image in the editor window and clicking the small
box in the lower right of the slide border. Clicking the pop-up box enables the text for that particular image. If the
box and “Pop-Up” reference are in bold, then a pop-up text exists for that image. If the selection box and text
are grayed out, then no pop-up text is included for that image. Approximately 35% of the images and all the test
patterns have pop-up text available.
Including Your Business Card and Logo
The Volume 2.0 computer-based image show includes a “personal info” slide where you may design your own “business
card” to include in your presentation. This adds a custom look to your demonstrations and provides the opportunity to
remind your customer that you produced the demonstration that they are now viewing. Once created, the business card
image may be replicated within your custom image show any number of time. For example, one might place the business
card into the show for every fifth image seen. For most image shows, a typical dwell time per image might be about 5 – 20
seconds. In this scenario, your business information would appear on the screen about every .5 to 2 minutes.
Here’s what you do:
• Click the “Set Info” button to access the data entry screen.
• Enter your information, including a “by-line” or short phrase, if you like.
• You may also click on the existing Shoot-Out logo at the bottom to search your hard drive for any BMP,
JPEG, or PICT image to use as your own logo for the personal info slide. (Your logo image may be cropped to
fit into the 800x600 space allowed in the interface. The final slide will conform to the chosen resolution).
• Use the menus on the left to set the font, font color, and paper color for the business card on the personal info
slide.
• Click the “Check Slide” button to see how your personal info slide will look
• Don’t forget to use the “Save Slide” button to save your changes and return to the main control interface.
• Follow the general instructions under “Customizing Your Slideshow” to insert your new business card slide into
your custom image show.
Viewing Tutorials
A group of tutorials may be found by clicking the “Tutorials” button at the top of the main control interface screen. Among
the tutorial files are the biographies of the Volume 2.0 contributors as well as technical articles and in-depth
guidance for using the computer graphic test patterns as well as the video test patterns. The included sets of test
patterns provide professional, objective method for evaluating many parameters of display performance that cannot regu-
larly be assessed using still photographs or moving pictures. Utilizing the test patterns will hone your skills so that you
may find details within movies and photographs that represent the kind of image detail and artifact evaluation you might
be investigating in less formal situations.
