iMS Studio

iMS Studio is a Graphical IDE built upon the iMSNET .Net wrapper and linking to the ims_hw_server application for access to iMS hardware. It serves as a fully featured application for creating Images, Compensation Tables and Tone Buffers, for managing ImageProjects and ImageGroups, for testing iMS Systems and as a learning tool for understanding how the iMS System is designed.

Example iMS Studio Window
iMS Studio is built around a Docking Manager style GUI. The centre of the screen is the document pane where the user can place Images, ImageSequences, CompensationTables and ToneBuffers. Around the edge of the window the user can place tabs that perform a variety of different functions. These tabs can be pinned into place using the drawing pin icon at the top right of the tab, removed with the little cross icon, auto-hidden to the side of the window, or floated away from the main window completely. The application starts with a default layout, but do play around with the tabs to arrange them in a style that suits your way of working.

In the default layout, the following tabs are visible:

Note
