Preview Panel

Review panel in the vertical orientation of the results is located in the left side of the main window:

or at the top of the main window when horizontal orientation:

Switching the orientation is carried out using the item View - Orientation of Main Menu. The functionality of the preview pane does not depend on the orientation and is designed to display the current result of Table of Results. With it you can examine in detail the duplicate or defective images, as well as make the basic operations on them.

Showing of pair of duplicates

A pair of duplicate images is displayed on the panel in a column or row (depending form orientation). The relative position of images corresponds to their position in the list of results. The control buttons are placed near them. Next is a list of these buttons and their names:

  • or - Delete both pictures.

  • or - Replace second picture by the first picture.

  • or - Delete first picture.

  • - Go to the previous result.

  • - Go to the next result.

  • or - Delete second picture.

  • or - Replace first picture by the second picture.

  • - Mark current result as a mistake.

The meanings of most actions undertaken by the buttons are well understood from their names. We describe only the last: this button allows you to mark the current result as false that would exclude his appearance after repeated searches. Additionally, we note that all the above actions (except for moving between the results) may be undone.

howing of defect picture

Defective image is displayed at the top panel or at the left panel (depending form orientation). It might happen that the program can not open it and the top panel will be a blank image. There are control buttons near:

  • or - Delete picture.

  • - Go to the previous result.

  • - Go to the next result.

  • - Mark current result as a mistake.

Note that if a duplicate image pairs have a different type, then this information is highlighted in red. Also highlighted in red image information having a smaller dimensions or smaller file size. Double-clicking on the name of the picture, you can rename or move a given image.
