3.5.4 Creating a Translucent Image and Comparing It to a Live Image
You can create a translucent image from the displayed image on the screen and view it while
being laid on top of the live image for comparison.
This function may be used to create a translucent scale or inspect registration of shapes.
The range over which you can create such an image is half the screen.
1) Press Superimposition Create . The tool bar shown below will be displayed, with a
yellow border displayed on the screen.
2) Move the mouse pointer into the area and click it while you drag in order to specify the
range in which you want to create a superimposed image.
3) Press Create , and the system will start creating a superimposed image automatically.
This will take some time.
Depending on the subject, the image thus created may not have sufficient contrast for
easy recognition. In such a case, use Clear to temporarily erase the image and [Lev:]
to change the creation level before using Create to re-create an image.
4) If the desired contrast is obtained and you wish to save the created image in the internal
memory, press Save .
5) If you want to paste it to the overlay of the image, use Paste . If you do not want to
paste, use
Clear to erase the image before it is fixed.
You can use Disp. to display the superimposed image you saved in the internal memory.
