Actions apply to the selected thumbnail image. Here is a brief description of each button: - OK: Applies a filter to the image, closes the dialog box (if present), and resets the filter parameters to their default settings.
- Apply: Applies a filter to the image, keeps the dialog box open (if present), and does not reset the filter parameters.
- Reset: Resets the filter parameters to their default settings and adjusts the image display to best fit. It does not close the dialog box (if present).
- Restore: Reloads the original image as captured by the camera, undoing all edits.
- Preview: If a filter does not automatically apply a preview, then the filter will have a Preview button that can be clicked to preview the filter impact.
Filter results are automatically previewed, in most cases, but the filters are not applied to the image until OK or Apply is pressed. |

| title | Perceived Unusual Behavior with Apply |
|---|
|
For most filters, Visere Captura automatically previews the filter effect on the thumbnail image. For example, when adjusting the Brightness filter, the following occurs: - The preview will show the impact of the Brightness filter, but the changes are not yet applied to the image.
- When the user clicks the Apply button, the brightness adjustment is applied to the image.
- Recall that clicking Apply applies the filter but leaves the filter parameters unchanged.
- Because the Brightness filter parameters remain the same, the preview after Apply was pressed will now show the brightness filter applied a second time.
While this might seem unusual, it is consistent with the intended functionality of the Apply button. To avoid this behavior, simply click the OK button instead of Apply. |
Detailed Explanation
To make Visere Captura an efficient image editor, most imaging filters are automatically previewed as the filter parameters are adjusted. For filters that do not automatically preview, such as AIBR, a Preview button is provided to view the filter preview results:
