Basic PAX-it Design
- Graphical Filing System
- PAX-it lets you organize your images in simple, yet
powerful way using cabinets and folders. You can title each cabinet and folder. Click on
one of the cabinet drawers and it opens, displaying 30 folders. Click on a folder and it
displays a 'visual directory', or thumbnails of your images in that folder. Up to
999 images can be stored into each folder, giving you virtually unlimited image archival!
- I forgot Which Folder my Image is in...
- Yes, it is possible that you might not be able to
remember where each image is saved. Because of this, the PAX-it graphical filing system
really was designed as a user friendly 'front end' for a very powerful relational
database. Each image can be stored with user-definable descriptors. These descriptors
are actually search fields to help you sort, search and query PAX-it for specific images.
- PAX-it has Toolbars; Toolbars have
Buttons
- PAX-it uses toolbars as a method of providing easily
accessed and commonly used functions. If you are not sure what any button does, just hold
your mouse cursor over the button. A function description will appear in a yellow box,
also known as a 'tool tip'. The PAX-it toolbars can be turned on or off using the
VIEW MENU.
- Bringing Images into PAX-it
- Images can of course be imported into PAX-it using any
standard image format. Images can also be acquired using TWAIN devices, such as scanners
or digital cameras. But the most common way of bringing images into PAX-it is via a video
camera, typically mounted on a microscope or macro stand. The camera is plugged into the
PAX-it capture board. In order to see the live image on the computer monitor, you must 'Go
Live'. ( You may Go Live by clicking on the microscope button on the toolbar
titled 'Capture'.) The user then 'freezes' the image, at which time it can be saved into
any of your PAX-it folders.
- Creating Reports with PAX-it
- Perhaps on of the most common uses for PAX-it is the
creation of reports which contain images. PAX-it 2.0 contains a very nice interface for
creating such reports. Multiple images can be selected, and then with a single click these
images can be integrated into a custom lab report or failure analysis report. This report
generation feature uses Microsoft Word, thus providing unlimited options for report design
and layout. This enables the common layout approach and sharing factor of the report,
within your company.
