Enhanced mode

 

If you are using 'Enhanced pictures' in Review runs also set extra details to describe the picture. Use the 'Width' and 'Length' boxes to say what physical size of board the picture represents; it may be a picture of a full board 2400 x 1200 mm or just a small part of it.

 

Enter the colour to use when the core material is shown; typically chipboard or MDF.

 

 Select OK to confirm

 

 

Notes

 

- Solid colours are selected from a standard 'Colour picker' dialog

 

- Pictures are selected from a picture dialog. This shows any BMP/JPG files located in the 'Path for library data'.
