Hi,
I try to insert a picture from (for example) IrvanView into AS10 by copy and paste. The quality then becomes worse. Is there a way to insert without loosing quality?
Thanks a lot,
Martin
Hi,
I know that, but that does not help me. The quality is still lowered down by the program. Any further ideas?
Thanks
Martin
Are you sure that it is actually degraded? My first wild guess is not. And, if so, what do you mean by degraded? Lower resolution, or just crappy looking? If you are just looking at it on a monitor, that is not an indicator. First, the monitor has lower resolution than the image in most cases. Also the interaction between the pixelation of the image and the pixelaiton of the monitor can create a moire pattern which makes it look really crappy. You might try different zooms or printing it to see if it's really degraded / what's really happenning.
Have you tried to print the document to check the actual quality?
I recall this program resizes images based on 'nearest neighbour' interpolation, rather than using some form of smoothing to make things look good. But, it may be ok printed out or viewed at a different zoom level.
Hi Zenbu,
I will show you examples for my problem(s).
I want to paste a photo in AS10 to make a marking or something similar.
This is the original picture:
If I paste the original size (e.g. 3888x2592 pixel) in AS10, then it is shown with a 16-color-layer (can't describe it better, see following picture):
If I zoom into the picture, the 16-color-layer is gone but I only seea small part from the whole picture.
So I resize it (e.g. 1111x741 pixel) to the following result (zoomed in original):
Then I paste this image in AS10 and have the following result:
The best solution would be to have the original size without the 16-color-layer.
Can anybody help?
Thanks
Martin
Hi StevenMac,
the printed picture is the same. But I usually use it this way: Insert the picture, make some markings/arrows and so on and then I make a screenshot and paste it in a document. So the screen-resolution should be good.
Thanks
Martin
If you're working with images you may just want to use MS paint (or paint.net free software).
Well, I already switched to Gimp, but that does not offer the same functions like AS10, so that I still would like to do my work with AS10. But if there is no solution for my problems I cannot do that anymore.
I also want to make sketches of a road from aerial images, but with a down scaled resolution some details are getting lost.
Thanks
Martin
The "problem" that you show is a moire pattern, which relates to display on your monitor. Nothing that you've shown indicates that the image / autosketch document is degraded.
Zenbu is me (temporarilly lost my log in info). In short, I don't think that you have a problem; I think the "problem" exists only on your monitor and not in the actual drawing.
Hi Zenbu,
there always is an HTML-error when I want to post. So I copied my original post to a MS Word document and attach this to this post. I think you can still see what I want to show.
Thanks
Martin
Hi Zenbu,
then let me show you this:
the same picture in AS10 and Irfan view.
Original:
Then an extract in Irfan View:
Full Image in AS10:
Extract in AS10:
This cannot be a screen-issue because I dit it all on the same screen. Or can it?
What you can also see: If I copy a big image to AS10 ans zoom out, there is a 16-color-problem. When I zoom in, that does not appear any more.
If you still say it is not an AS10-problem, please let me know what is the problem.
Can anybody try the same thing on her/his computer?
Thanks
Martin
Zenbut is me, I just temporarily lost my info. I didn't mean that your monitor is bad. I meant that what you are seeing is a normal effect that CREATED on the monitor display. It's called a moire pattern, which (in this case) is a wierd appearance when you display a dot based image on a different dot based device (your screen). The two patterns combine to create wierd looking patterns. So IMO what you are seeing is normal and doesn't indicate that you have a problem.
