PICOLAY Short reference (English) | Kurzreferenz (Deutsch) Set stacking parameters Minimum contrast (0..30) Minimum contrast suppresses noise. Narrow or widen patches Enlarges (+) oder downsizes (-) the patches, originating from usage of minimum contrast > 0. This can help to improve transitions in the resulting image. Filter: Smart or 1 - 10 Defines the filter used for the detection of structures. Smart = flexible depending on the details in different image areas. One can alse set the filter to a fixed value between 1 (fine, high-pass) and 10 (coarse, low-pass) Prefer bottom or top frames (%) Gives structures in close-to-bottom (-) or close-to-top (+) images in the stack a higher value. Auto-align images Aligns images prior to the stacking procedure and harmonises the size. This routine should be used for stacks taken with stereo-loupes and for macrophotographs. Under 'Options' one can also activate correction of rotations in the stack. Auto-enhance Causes automatic enhancement of contrast, sharpness and colour saturation. Test 4 param. sets Performs stacking with four different parameter sets, in order to find the perfect parameters.
