What resources are available for users of older Nanoscope software who are tranisitioning to image processing in Nanoscope Analysis 1.40?

Is there a tutorial video or FAQ which introduces users of the older Nanoscope III software (v5.31 or v4.42) to the corresponding functions in Nanoscope Analysis 1.40? 

Or a tutorial which goes over typical steps in processing images in Analysis 1.40?  Functions of interest would include loading multiple files, flatten or planefit, roughness measurement, removing glitches or erasing scan lines, generating cross sections, verifying modified data is saved to a new filename, exporting images to reports or TIFF/JPEG, compiling an Excel spreadsheet of roughness data for multiple files.

Hi Chris,

 

I think you will find that many of NanoScope Analysis software routines that you are referring to (flatten, roughness,…) have enough similarities to versions 4 and 5 that you will pick up the new software quickly.  As Ang mentioned, you can always use the Help (hit F1 or go to the Help pull down menu) to find instructions for the software.  You can also go through the “What’s New” menu which comes up when you start the software (also located in the Help pull down menu) which will answer some of your questions.

 

You can use Run History to create a routine that can be applied to many images (such as Flatten, Roughness, Export) – this would be similar to the offline Autoprogram in v4 or v5.  This can be used to create an Excel spreadsheet of the measurements with the average and standard deviation.   A Run History routine can be saved with the workspace.  You can also export multiple images from the Browse menu (right click while holding down shift or control) and convert them into TIFF, JPEG, or BMP formats. 

 

I hope this helps.

Hi, Chris, the help file of the software is pretty nicely self explained and demonstrated, if you still have some questions, you can post them here or contact a Bruker application.
