Acquiring specific images

35 

In this manner, you can display a sample in any form you like in the 
stitched image. The illustration shows a stitched image that is made up 
of 9 individual images, and the stage path. 
 

17. Click the 

Stop

 button when you want to end the acquisition of the 

stitched image.  



You see the completed stitched image (4) in the image window.  
Since the individual images can lie a little askew of each other, the 
stitched image isn't as a rule, rectangular, but contains empty areas 
on its borders (5). These areas will, as a rule, be cut off in the 
stitched image.  
 



The stitched image will, by default, be automatically saved. The 
storage directory is shown in the 

Acquisition Settings > Saving > 

Process Manager

 dialog box. The preset file format is VSI. 



By default, in the overlap area, the intensity values of two adjoining 
individual images will be matched with each other to make the 
image's overall impression homogeneous. 



Stitched images are calibrated. This means that you can measure 
distances and objects on a stitched image.
