Viewer Preferences

The Viewer Preferences window is shown below with descriptions of the options available:

Show Toolbars

If checked, displays the toolbars. This preference takes effect immediately.

Show Tooltips

If checked, displays the tooltips when you mouse-over the tool icons on the toolbars. This preference takes effect immediately.

Show Scrollbars

If checked, displays scrollbars. This preference takes effect immediately.

Enable Mouse Wheel Paging

If checked, the mouse wheel will move the view to the next (or previous) page in addition to scrolling up (or down) on the currently viewed page. The mouse wheel will page when no scrollbar is displayed or when the scroll thumb is at the top (or bottom) of the scrollbar.

Invert Selection Rectangle

If checked, it performs a color inversion within the selection rectangle.

Apply View Settings to Entire File

In this section, if you select the check box for Scaling and Position, Rotation, Mirror, and Invert, or Quality, it changes the way the current page is displayed (such as rotation or zooming), and will be applied to all of the pages in the multi-page file or Image List File as you view each page in the file.
If you do not select the check box for Scaling and Position, Rotation, Mirror, and Invert, or Quality, the changes to an individual page will only be applied to that specific page and will not be applied to other pages. As long as the same file (or Image List File) is being viewed, paging back and forth will restore any changes you made previously to that page.

Changes to the settings in this section take effect immediately.

If you want to restore all pages to their original state, click the Reset All Page Settings button

located on the Image Toolbar.

Write Error Log File

If checked, enables the log file creation and logging. This is useful to capture information for debugging possible scripting errors. This preference takes effect the next time you open Prizm Viewer.

Flying Magnifier

Enter the width, height and magnification amount for the Flying Magnifier tool. This preference takes effect immediately.
The Flying Magnifier settings are:
- Default: Width (200), Height (100), and Magnify (200).
- Minimum: Width (20), Height (20), and Magnify (101).
- Maximum: Width (800), Height (800), and Magnify (1000).

If you enter a value in the Flying Magnifier settings box that is less than 20 or greater than 1000, the value will automatically revert to the minimum or maximum value allowed for that setting.

Zoom Amount

Enter the percentage that is applied each time the Zoom button is selected from the toolbar. This preference takes effect immediately.
