morning :)
Rotation tool is working very well
-
only thing (very minor) is it can take a while to make the rotation if you choose 'Auto-detect' - might be a good idea to show an hour glass/waiting symbol ?
I was able to narrow down the scanning area - I presume in the 'Scan specific area' that the 'Left' & 'Top' boxes create a margin that isnt scanned? Worked here anyways :up:
Background removal -
I cant get this to work - scanning dark image on white (paper) background - it could be the fact it's paper - it's texture does get scanned which probably makes it difficult to remove - will try with a sheet of photo paper later

the new system lets you tweak the tolerance interactively; its that number down on the scanning toolbar.
as you change that now, youll see the selection box try to pick out the foreground. try values around 140 or so.

1) funny I just did exactly the same scan again (rectangular card, at an angle - needed an angle of -4 to correct skew) and auto-detect skew didnt work this time . . no idea why - instead of the required -4° rotation, it rotates image by 0.0999999999999943° (!)

A problem with Background removal:
it doesnt seem to work if the image is skewed
it doesnt seem to work then if the image is rotated and the image 'frame' is skewed
i.e. it requires a non-skewed image in a non-skewed frame to work properly
