(6) Capturing an image together with scales, annotations, and measurement results
DS-L3 allows you to display scales, to write lines and comments, and to measure lengths and angles on the screen. You can
capture an image together with these operation results embedded in the image.
Adding annotations and performing measurements
For details on the annotation and measurement functions, refer to “Chapter 11 Adding Lines and Annotations to an
Image” and “Chapter 12 On-Screen Measurement”.

Press the [CAPTURE] button.
Among scales on the screen, annotations, and measurement
results that are displayed on the monitor, those specified in
step 1 will be recorded without change as an image file in
which they are embedded.
Automatic switching of the image mode
•
When the image mode is [ROI-L/S] or [C.SCAN] with the
live image, selecting the tool menu or tool bar
automatically switches the image mode to [FULL].
•
When images are replayed with the image mode being
[ROI-L/S] or [C.SCAN], selecting the tool menu or tool
bar automatically switches the image mode to [FULL],
stops the replaying, and displays the live image.
•
When the image is pausing with the image mode being
[ROI-L/S] or [C.SCAN], selecting the tool menu or tool
bar automatically switches the image mode to [FULL],
releases the pausing condition, and displays the live
image.
•
In the case of two-screen mode, the image mode
automatically switches to [FULL]. Setting the image
mode to other than [FULL] during the two-screen mode
switches the screen to the one-screen mode.
