Image Sets


An Image Set is a Mira construct for the collection of one or more images which are treated as a single object. The Image Set greatly extends the old concept of "stacking" images. The entire program architecture is designed to work with more than one image in a window just as naturally as working with just one image. In the Pro Script module, image sets are realized using the CImageSet class. The term "image set" is often used in the context of two or more images. However, Mira internally treats any number of images, including one image, as an image set.

Definitions

Image Set

A collection of one or more images that is treated as a group in an Image Window.

Current Image

The selected image of the image set. If the image set is displayed in a window, this is the visible image on top of the stack.

Accessing Image Set Members through the GUI

When you load one image into a window, the bottom window border appears to be "normal" and thin, perhaps with a scrollbar. When the window contains an image set—that is, more than 1 image, the images may be animated and stepped using the Animation docking pane shown below.

Tip

In addition to using controls on the Animation Bar, you can also step through the Image Set using the Tab key. Be sure the Image Window has the keyboard focus. Then use the following keystrokes:

  • Press [Tab] to step forward in the image set.

  • Press [Shift] + [Tab] to step backward.
