Folders options

Use independent open and save folders

This option enables using two independent folders for opening and saving files. If this option is selected then Neat Image will use two independent folders (otherwise, only one folder) for opening and saving files using open and save dialogs.

 

Use independent folders for images / profiles / presets

This option enables using three independent folders for working with images, noise profiles and filter presets. If this option is selected then Neat Image will remember three folders, otherwise, only one folder for images, profiles and presets.

 

Profile folder

Select the folder where Neat Image will look for device noise profiles. This should be the topmost folder of all the (sub)folders with device noise profiles. In this way, Neat Image will be able to display all the profiles (stored in all the subfolders of the specified folder) in the popup menus in the Device noise profile panel of the Filtration Job Editor and of the Filtration Queue.

By default, the PROFILES subfolder of the Neat Image installation folder is used. You can use any other location for your profiles as well.

 

Preset folder

Select the folder where Neat Image will look for filter presets. This should be the topmost folder of all the (sub)folders with filter presets. In this way, Neat Image will display all the presets (stored in all the subfolders of the specified folder) in the popup menu in the Noise Filter Settings panel of the Filtration Job Editor and of the Filtration Queue.

By default, the PRESETS subfolder of the Neat Image installation folder is used. You can use any other location for your presets as well.

 

Temporary folder

Select the folder that Neat Image will use to store its temporary files. In other applications, this is sometimes called 'scratch disk'.
