Here are parts of an Email that I sent to Matto Marjanovic. He<br>
recommended that I send them to this mailing list... Matto already<br>
promissed to check the Microtek specific part.<br>
<p>
First, Congratulations. sane-0.69 is the first version which is I could<br>
use both with the Gimp and as a stand alone program.<br>
<p>
Here is my bug list:<br>
<p>
Microtek specific (inherited from mtekscan-0.2), tested on ScanMaker E6:<br>
1. MIdtone level is useful in line-art. Why is is hidden? (actually I am<br>
not sure about its effect in other modes).<br>
<p>
2. If the Black level is higher than the white level the scanner<br>
confuses<br>
and the program gets hung. I had to reboot in that case...<br>
<p>
General:<br>
3. Resizing the preview window made a big mess....<br>
(the preview window code probably needs more fixes).<br>
<p>
Cosmetic:<br>
4. A few times it happened that the tooltips window popped up at the<br>
same time that I hit the mode select button. In that case I expect<br>
the<br>
tooltips windoe to disappear immediately. What really happens is that<br>
the tooltips window hangs over the mode that I want to select and I<br>
have to clich somewhere else and try again. Very annoying.<br>
Turning off tooltifs fixes the problem.<br>
<p>
5. Please Use "Line Art" and not "Lineart".<br>
<p>
I attach a small program that I used with mtekscan-0.2 and I now use<br>
with xscanimage. Since I usually keep the scanner turned off I need<br>
to tell the system to look for it. Also it may show up either at<br>
/dev/sga or at /dev/sgb and a symbolic link has to be generated for it.<br>
This program is hard-wired for my system but it is simple enough to<br>
change. That script has to be modified to match a particular system.<br>
