aren't you going to tell us what it is
- I could actually use a solution for that (I have had the problem of my Photoshop not being able to read size of image files (I think it was with pngs) - it just showed them at 72dpi.-tomos (March 29, 2012, 08:37 AM)

Maybe my quest will be a few years shorter because of it!-crabby3 (March 27, 2012, 12:38 PM)
Please see this topic... Reply #11
Opening a .png file using Paint.NET gives me the units which are set (by default) in Paint.NET, and it knows how to convert the resolution stored in the .png. If I change a setting, like Image/Resize, to be pixels/cm instead of the default pixels/inch, the next time it has remembered my choice. I like that behavior.-Ath (March 28, 2012, 09:50 AM)
It also seems to be more of a 'playground' for other user/programmers because there's a TON of plugins... and about 99% are effects. That's why I fell in love with SC. Just click the icon and your ready to go! 
perhaps PSP fails to do the proper conversion when loading an image with the unit specifier flag set to meters?
wait this is the key part -- are you saying that its possible for the png file to specify whether it is stored in meters?
this is the key part we have been struggling with. Jibz you sound like you are saying that the SC image says that the file should be viewed as using the "meters" unit. Is that so?-mouser (March 28, 2012, 08:06 AM)

Looking at a screenshot saved from SSC, it appears to correctly set the pHYs chunk to 96 dpi, perhaps PSP fails to do the proper conversion when loading an image with the unit specifier flag set to meters?-Jibz (March 28, 2012, 07:36 AM)
I entered unit specifier flag set to meters? into my browser and found this. I don't understand much of it... so it may not even apply here.
...but this one has a more accurate header and content.
it sounds like your problem is with your image editor not SC.-mouser (March 25, 2012, 11:04 AM)
SO: My conclusion is that PSP treats all PNG files as if they were created by sane Europeans using the metric system. While jpgs and psp formatted files are treated as if they were created by crazy Americans.-mouser (March 25, 2012, 11:57 AM)
No big deal really... I'm kind of sorry I started this topic.-crabby3 (March 25, 2012, 11:40 AM)
Is there a way to set SC to always capture in inches?I haven't been able to locate the setting.
If it can't be set... maybe it could be added to a future update?-crabby3 (March 25, 2012, 06:03 AM)
Well like i said, you can change the DPI of captured images, as stored by SC in the image files (you'll find that in options on the Image File Format tab) -- but i don't know that the image files specify whether they were captured in inches or cm. Unless someone tells me they do, it sounds like your problem is with your image editor not SC.-mouser (March 25, 2012, 11:04 AM)
And I'll think twice before I start another one.
You can change the DPI number, but that doesnt seem to be the same thing.
Can you tell me which program you are using that is showing the images are "captured in centimeters"?-mouser (March 25, 2012, 10:41 AM)
... so I have to switch pics to inches.
I just thought I'd ask, in case it was there, and I just didn't see it.
Well... I got an answer... just not the right topic.Same older ticket number too. I wonder what's going on over there?

Maybe they've scanned their PCs enough times with their AV software that their PCs have gotten so slow they are backlogged back to answering tickets 8 months old.-Innuendo (March 23, 2012, 04:48 PM)
...so I guess I don't really need a current topic email from them. I haven't been able to locate the setting.
My question is... what happens during a scan to cause this?-crabby3 (March 02, 2012, 07:52 AM)
Answer that is as simple as possible: bugs in your AV software. I'd file a bug report with Avast! because not all AV programs exhibit this behavior.-Innuendo (March 02, 2012, 09:49 AM)
Thanks for the advice Innuendo... I'll see what Avast! has to say.-crabby3 (March 02, 2012, 10:04 AM)
This return email was about a question I had in July 2011. Same older ticket number too. I wonder what's going on over there?

I have no idea what the explanationto your question might be.
My only advice would be to stop scanning!!!
Seriously, I NEVER scan my computer. Instead I scan everything coming to my computer.-Curt (March 02, 2012, 08:35 AM)
Try to keep the answer(s) as simple as possible. There is another agenda there...forced malnutrition.Well, that might explain it, but I'm not so sure, though there does seem to be something very odd about it.-Renegade (March 02, 2012, 12:31 AM)
It's an organic vegetable farm for goodness' sake!
I didn't realise it until I read this that organic farmers are under attack in this state to the extent that they need a legal defence fund (Is that right?), and the health department official concerned may have become unhinged or possibly been exacting some kind of vicarious revenge for this.
Looks like your "Health Department" (Southern Nevada Health Department) over there might actually be potentially injurious to public health and - using this farm raid an example - definitely injurious to public legal and/or Constitutional rights.
Hopefully, it could only happen in America. Sheesh.-IainB (March 02, 2012, 01:46 AM)
This is the only state in the US where prostitution is legal! Who gives a crap what they eat before they do somebody? IMO... this is one of those silly stories, that news casters throw in, to get you to watch their mostly boring show.
I know that this thread is about Censorship of the Internet in general, but I read something curious today - Health department raids community picnic and destroys all food with bleach - that makes me wonder if that Internet censorship is not just a single narrow aspect of a much larger overall strategy of state censorship in the US, driven presumably by commercial interests rather than by genuine state security interests.
I am at a loss otherwise as to how to explain how this seemingly sort of Stazi invasion can be condoned, let alone authorised in law as an act by a government agency against a perfectly law-abiding "feast of friends" (I think this is what it is called).
What sort of thing is this action? Is it true? Was it necessary because a crime had been or was about to be committed? Was it a "Monsanto" Stazi? Who knows?
Maybe I am missing something that would help me to to understand that it all makes perfectly good sense, but at this point it seems to be a perverse and frightening form of censorship. I can't imagine such a thing happening in New Zealand, though after the recent terrifyingly excessive and exemplary Dotcom raid/arrest, the NZ police have demonstrated that anything is possible.-IainB (March 01, 2012, 05:37 PM)
Excessiveness is all over the planet... not just US...
@crabby3: Many thanks for this. That looks like a seriously powerful utility. It apparently does things I have wished I could do with xplorer²'s superb bulk rename, but cannot.
Going to download it now...-IainB (March 01, 2012, 07:46 AM)
Don't overlook its companion command-line utility, BRC, Bulk Rename Command:In addition to the conventional Bulk Rename Utility, we also now have a command-line version, called Bulk Rename Command.
For those of you who grew up with Windows, the command-line is the non-GUI way to perform commands on your PC. With DOS everything was driven from the command-line, but with Windows you have to access the command-line by clicking Start, Run, then typing cmd (or command, if you use Windows 98). You might think this sounds convoluted and backward, but a command-line utility can wield immense power if you are performing repetitive tasks. For example, you can:
* Create scheduled jobs
* Create a set of batch files which perform a single task, safe in the knowledge they will do exactly the same thing each time.
* See exactly what command is being performed - no hidden settings
* Be sure that you will always keep the command details -there are no config files to lose.
Bulk Rename Command (BRC) is targeted at system administrators and power-users, who need to perform specific tasks repetitively. For example, the renaming of log files, or the processing of backup files. As such, it does not contain some of the features of Bulk Rename Utility such as MP3-tag or EXIF tag processing.
You can download BRC here. http://www.bulkrenam...y.co.uk/Download.php-rjbull (February 29, 2012, 02:53 PM)
