Symptom

After installing uScope Navigator 4.3, I am unable to create a Deep Zoom image using the default settings after scanning a slide.

The default settings do not seem to be set to create a Deep Zoom image.

Cause

You are correct. This issue is caused by default Deep Zoom settings that do not create a Deep Zoom image set.

Resolution

The default Deep Zoom settings include a potentially unnecessary pre-process and exclude an output image. For most scans, the best starting point includes the following settings:

• — Filter: --None--
• Post-Process: --None--
• Output Formats: Open SeaDragon

In addition to the Open SeaDragon format, you may wish to create a Tiled TIF (SVS) image as well.

You can change the default settings for the Create Deep Zoom dialog from the Program Settings — Deep Zoom Options dialog to meet your requirements.

Note
Starting in uScope Navigator v4.5, the Open Seadragon format was renamed Deep Zoom as this is the actual output file format used. Open Seadragon is simply the image viewer.
