Calibration

[Klughammer GmbH]

Hi,

is there a possibility to calibrate an image by drawing a line (known
length) and insert that length in mm, µm etc. without calculating the
amount of pixels before?
How can I store different calibrations?

to your first question, use the Analyze>set scale option.
That will calculate the number of pixels per unit, and insert
it into your picture.  When you save the image, the
calibration will remain with the file.

for the first question, yes: just draw the line, and look at the Set
scale dialog.
