Image enhancement editor help page

The GUI application serves as a comprehensive tool for the analysis and enhancement of selected images. It offers various functionalities, including face restoration, super-resolution, and more. The application window is divided into three main sections: the image viewer, the toolbar, and the tab for accessing images and folders. The following sections provide a detailed explanation of each component:

Image Viewer
The image viewer is the primary section where the chosen image is displayed. Only one image can be viewed at a time within this area. To manipulate the image further, a set of tools is available in the tab located above the image view window.

The Tab
Located on the right side of the window, the tab provides access to images and folders. Users can only access images created by GUI. By clicking on an image within the right tab folder view, it will be inserted into the image view. This enables further manipulation of the image using the tools available in the tab above the image view window.

Snapshot
Snapshot button is located above video view area next to zoom factor. It is used to create snapshot of current video frame. Taken image is automatically saved inside folder of the particular device.

Image Search

The tab in the application is specifically designed for locating and accessing images for image enhancement. The small window in the top left corner facilitates navigation to the root level. Within the tab, all folders and images within the selected folder are displayed. To enhance a specific image from those shown in the tab, simply click on it. The chosen image will then be inserted into the image view area.

Image View

The image view area is dedicated to displaying the selected image. It can accommodate only one image at a time. Users can navigate the image by clicking and holding the mouse. This functionality allows movement in any direction within the image view area. Zooming in and out can be achieved using either the mouse wheel or the keyboard shortcuts I for zoom in and O for zoom out. For adjusting the brightness of an image within the image view area, utilize the brightness tool located on the right side of the image view. By dragging the horizontal line connected to a vertical base, which features a triangle in the middle, users can modify the brightness. Two such handlers are available: one at the top and the other at the bottom. Adjusting these handlers vertically changes the brightness of the image accordingly.

Toolbar

The toolbar comprises five buttons, each serving a specific purpose:

1. ROI Button: This button enables the creation of a region of interest (ROI) by left-clicking on the image view. To delete the ROI, simply press the ROI button again. To adjust created ROI drag one of three handlers located on three corners of squared ROI. The left bottom handle scales the ROI in both x and y directions. For moving the ROI simply click on the ROI area and drag.
2. Image Tools Button: By clicking on this button, a drop-down menu with all available image enhancement tools is displayed. Selecting a tool from the menu creates a popup window, where the image selected using the ROI is presented.
3. Mouse Mode Button: Two mouse modes are available. The first mode allows users to drag the image within the image view area and zoom in and out using the mouse wheel. The second mode enables zooming in by creating a zoom square after clicking.
4. Zoom Factor Button: Clicking on this button reveals a drop-down menu containing various zoom factors. The first three options are fit, which adjusts the image to fit the image view area. The remaining two options are for zooming in and out.
5. Save Button: Located on the right side of the top toolbar, the save button allows users to save the image from the image view area to a chosen folder.
