I added the ability to crop and rotate photos in IOC Snapshot "Open Dental Camera" plugin. This allows you to crop the photos before they are sent to Open Dental. Currently you cannot crop photos once they are in a mount in Open Dental, at least not easily. So this should work. Double click the imag...

I admire this guy. He is always tinkering LoL. That said, why not store the images inside the Imaging software used by the practice.

Are you sure you are not talking about mapped drives?

No, going from a UNC path (\\computername) to using a unc path with an ip address (\\1.2.3.4) is what fixed this for me, so Open Dental would find the OpenDentImages path during normal use of the software, sometimes it would work and sometimes not.

I got Cliosoft to work. It requires the name of the camera be changed to suit their needs.

From a friend: Well not so technical but if it doesn’t detect exposure it should be one of Six things: 1.

When you install BitLocker are you planning on encrypting the usb backup driver, or the server itself?

Same sensor I believe. One uses Apteryx and the other XDR. The difference other then software regarding the actual image quality will be related to the software x-ray filters that XDR and Apteryx use to produce an image.

So I didn't realize after using the twain function in OD, that the category is not remembered when the program first opens. If defaults to the top of the list.

I can't figure out a way to use AutoHotKey or Visual Studio (MFC) to pull this off.
