You see the completed stitched image (4) in the image window.
Since the individual images can lie a little askew of each other, the
stitched image isn't as a rule, rectangular, but contains empty areas
on its borders (5). These areas will, as a rule, be cut off in the
stitched image.
The stitched image will, by default, be automatically saved. The
storage directory is shown in the
Acquisition Settings > Saving >
Process Manager
dialog box. The preset file format is VSI.
By default, in the overlap area, the intensity values of two adjoining
individual images will be matched with each other to make the
image's overall impression homogeneous.
Stitched images are calibrated. This means that you can measure
distances and objects on a stitched image.
