Adding Micron Markers to an Image

You can add any number of micron markers to an image, using any font or color available on your PC.

To add a micron marker to an image, select the Micron Marker command from the Image menu.

To edit an existing micron marker, select the micron marker (by clicking on it with the mouse), and select Micron Marker from the Image menu. Or, double-click the micron marker.

The Micron Marker Dialog

When editing or adding a micron marker, you’ll be presented with the Micron Marker Dialog. From here you can edit the size of the micron marker, and change the font and color.

To change the size of the micron marker, simply type a new size, in um, in the Size field.

To change the font and color of the text (and the color of the micron marker line), click the Font/Color button. This will display the standard Windows Font Dialog. From here you can choose the Font Facename, Style, Size, Effects, Color, and Script.

To change the orientation of the mircrom marker, select either Horizontal or Vertical.

Whenever you change the attributes of a micron marker, you change the attributes for that micron marker only. However, the font and color attributes will now become the default for the next micron marker you add.
