Use this dialog box to clip the edges of individual images to the nearest pixel in a MIA acquisition process.
Artifacts near the edge of the image, image distortions for example, can hinder the automatic assemble of the individual images. With the MIA Clipping function, you can cut off these artifacts near the edge of the image.
Opening the dialog box
You can open this dialog box via the camera control. In the Camera Control tool window's toolbar, click the Acquisition Settings button. Select the Camera > MIA Clipping entry in the tree view.
Note: If you have already limited the camera to a user-defined section in the Acquisition Settings - Camera - Clipping dialog box, these values are automatically adopted in the MIA Clipping dialog box and are clipped additionally.
