Application Navigation Bar


Loading Controls	Processing Controls	Options

On the left hand corner of the program is the Application Navigation Bar. This contains the controls needed to load and process images.

Loading Controls

These controls handles the pre-processing stage of the batch image processing.

Load Files	The Load Files control allows you to load individual image or a set of images from a directory.

Load Folders	The Load Folders control allows you to load entire folder/directory of images. It also allows provides you the option to search for images in all sub directories recursively.

Clear List	This clear the filename listing and allows you to work with a new set of images. Exiting from the program would clear the filename listing too and thus there is no need to clear the list if you are exiting from the program.

Settings	This switches you to the Settings page.

Backup Original	This option provides you with the ability to backup all original files on the list into either a ZIP file or into another directory/folder on your computer.

If you opt to save process files in the same directory as the original without changing filenames, the original files would be overwritten. Files which are overwritten cannot be recovered. Thus it is a good policy to make backups of the originals or save the processed files in a separate directory. This will allow you to go back to them if you need a different setting.

Processing Controls

This contains controls the actual preview and batch image processing.

Process All	This begins the actual image processing sequence. Images would be loaded in the Before Preview panel and all processing can be previewed in the After Preview Panel.

Stop	This will stop the image processing sequence. The process will stop after the current image is saved to prevent any file damage.

Batch It v5 supports Real Time Preview of changes, by clicking on the filename you want to see the changes made and the changes will show up in the After Preview screen.

Options

This control relates to the way real-time changes are previewed and affects the image processing function.


Enable Change Preview	By checking this option, each time you click on a filename, the real-time image processing preview is enabled and the changes is shown in the After Preview screen. If you are working on large files, the program would seems 'stuck' and become non-responsive. You may want to uncheck this option if you do not require the preview.
