NUMBER OF CORES: Below the file paths is a section titled

Number of Cores

for setting

the number of computer processing cores (or threads) for working in Perspective. The
default is 2 cores but Perspective will utilize up to 8 cores for faster performance.

2.2 Third Party Settings

The tab on the far right in the
Program Settings dialog is for
pointing Perspective to the 3D
area-based editor and the BAG file
configuration data. Note that the
BAG file libraries are used for
creating depth contours and
performing other tasks in
Perspective, therefore setting this
file path is very important!

PFM ABE SETTINGS: There are
two items to set for the area-
based 3D editor.

File Path: the path to the
"bin" folder needs to be
entered by browsing to the
correct directory as shown below.
