Description
Gets or sets the spatial calibration status flags.
-
Property type
-
A mccfCalibFlags enumeration.
-
Syntax
-
object.Flags [= value]
The Flags Property syntax has these parts: Settings The settings for value are:
 | mccfIsReference | 1 |
If set, the calibration is a reference calibration
|
 | mccfIsSystem | 2 |
If set, the calibration is the system calibration
|
 | mccfWasDerived | 256 |
If set, the calibration was derived from another calibration masks
|
 | mccfUserFlags | -65536 |
Flags for use by user
|
 | mccfAddFlags | -65281 |
All unmasked flags are ignored by AddEx and Flags property assignment
|
 | mccfNoFlags | 0 | |
 | mccfAllFlags | -1 | |
Remarks
There are several types of spatial calibrations. Reference calibrations typically correspond to microscope objectives, and are persisted from one application session to the next. The system calibration is the currently selected Reference calibration. Derived calibrations are created by the calibration collection when the system calibration is applied to an image and there is some factor present that modifies the calibration by modifying the effective magnification. Two such factors are Capture Factor, where a single pixel of higher intensity is created by combining several neighboring pixels, and Magnification Modifiers (optics in the light path that change the total system magnification).
The Flags property returns a combination of the mccfCalibFlags flags.
It is not recommended to set the System Calibration by setting the System Calibration flag - use the SystemCalibration property of the calibrations collection instead.
