PAX-it! Database and Storage System
PAX-it images are stored in an electronic filing system which contain
cabinets and folders; items that you are already familiar with. Complicated
filenames like "C:\IMAGES\MYPIC\PIC3743.BMP" are a thing of the past. You
may save your images into different cabinets which contain 30 folders. Each
folder contains the icons or "thumbnails" for the images that are stored
inside the folder. You may also title each cabinet and folder so that the
organization of your images is made easy.
You have many different cabinets that you may
title

Each cabinet drawer contains 30 folders

"Thumbnails" provide a visual directory for each
image in a folder

Besides the comprehensive databasing tools for archiving files with pertinent
tags, PAX-it allows additional ways to place information on your images for
communicating with others:
- Annotate images with circles, boxes, drawings, arrows, and text
to point out particular features
- Use the notepad for free flowing textual information…a sentence,
a paragraph, or pages of textual notes that may be accessed whenever an image
is viewed. The notepad text is searchable across images, as an aid in retrieving
related items.
- Use the voice recorder to attach spoken notes to an image, playable
when an individual image is viewed or during a slide show presentation.
- Place images side by side for comparison of normal vs. defective,
low mag vs high mag, points in a time course study…plates are easily constructed
with up to 16 images placed side by side.
- Cut & paste to combine regions of different images into a new
image.
