Greeings from a Happy SANE user,<br>
<p>
I've been doing some scanning lately with xscanimage and while I like<br>
what it offers me (no windows 9x!) I do have some problems with it.<br>
<p>
Specifically I'm not sure I really like the fact that you have to<br>
explicity open the preview window and grab a preview when you start<br>
scanning. I also don't like the fact that you can't just grab the<br>
outline of the scanned area to change the dimensions. <br>
<p>
I know I can use the sliders on the main panel to change the x,y<br>
coordinates, but I think that's clunky. I was looking at what gimp<br>
offers and I was wondering if there would be any way to using that<br>
code inside our preview window?<br>
<p>
It would also be neat if you could zoom in on the preview window as<br>
well. <br>
<p>
In summary, here are the features I'd like to see. And if I hade the<br>
time and the programming knowledge I'd try to do it myself, but I just<br>
don't have the time. Too many other projects (house hunting!) taking<br>
my time right now.<br>
<p>
Front Feature Requests:<br>
<p>
1. Integrated preview and control panel. You always have the preview<br>
panel up, and it grabs a preview when you start the code.<br>
<p>
2. Ability to adjust the area to be scanned on screen, without having<br>
to use the sliders<br>
<p>
3. Ability to zoom on on a preview for finer control.<br>
<p>
4. Automatic naming of scans. This is a toughy, but basically some<br>
method of having the name increment automagically when you scan<br>
alot of stuff sequentially. <br>
<p>
5. Checks to make sure you don't over-write an existing scaned in<br>
image when saving you scan. This is a simple change.<br>
<p>
Thanks,<br>
John<br>
