Known Issues.

Known Issue 1.

If you happen to attept to recreate a colour composite image that you have already made.
that has also been saved into the source file location instead of a colour image directory. It will upset the image filename sequence, e.g. L4, L5, L6, will now become, L4, L5, your colour image, L6. This will flag a variable that is not reset. You will need to shutdown and restart the program if the autocolour no longer performs.

Known Issue 2.

Related to Issue 1. This may occur if you attempt to produce in autocolour images not in numerical sequence or in reverse sequence.

Known Issue 3.

When in manual colour, green band is loaded into red band as well? Load sequence is Red, Green, Blue. When green is selected on the colour processor, the filename is asked to be confirmed twice. Solution, load red again.

Known Issue 4.

I need to check the stereo viewer filter labels for all cameras, ???? bells ringing that I needed to check on some thing that didn't match the label with the nm correctly. Manually loaded left and right PANCAM images. All others seem fine.

The BETA release will not save images unless you register with me as a tester.
