Add Noise options
Intensity Specifies the amount of noise to add to the image. A higher intensity
increases the chance that a noise pixel will replace a pixel in the original
image.
Color
proximity
Specifies the color of noise pixels to add to the image. A lower value gives
each noise pixel a color similar to the pixel it replaces. Higher values result in
a random selection of the noise pixel color.
Noise color Select one of the following options to specify noise pixel color:
x Random: randomly selects the color.
x Monochrome: produces black and white noise pixels.
x Adjustable: randomly selects the color of each noise pixel, but more
pixels match a defined color. To define a color, click the color picker and
select a color.
Noise
placement
Adds noise to image areas that closely match a defined color. Select the Set
color check box to enable noise placement, and click the color picker to
specify a color.
Random
Seed
Indicates the random placement of noise in an image.
When you apply the Add Noise filter to an image, ACDSee places the noise
pixels based on a random seed. This makes the image noise different each
time you apply the filter. You can define a specific random seed to generate
identical image noise.
To generate a new random seed, click Random Seed.
Batch editing
About batch editing
In ACDSee you can:
x Make one type of edit to many photos: For example, if you need to resize multiple
photos you can use the Batch Resize tool. Or, if you need to rotate multiple photos by 90
degrees you can use the Batch Rotate/Flip tool.
x Make multiple types of edits to multiple photos: For example, if you need to resize,
crop, correct color cast, and rotate multiple photos, you can use the Batch Processor to
perform all the edits, to all the files, simultaneously.
You can speed up the batch editing work flow by tagging your files. For example, you can
quickly tag the files you want to change, then click Tagged in the Organize pane to display all
the tagged files in the File List pane. Then you can select the files and choose a batch editing
tool or the Batch Processor wizard.
