OMI Software Information
This section provides usage information for this release of the OMI software. It describes
new software features and characteristics of OMI behaviors that are not bugs, but
warrant discussion.
New in OMI 2.3.1
This section describes changes from OMI 2.3.
Edit Mask Button Launches Mask Editor
In OMI 2.3, clicking the Edit Mask button did not launch the mask editor. This has been
fixed in OMI 2.3.1.
Enhancements to OCVLine
Two new capabilities were added to the OCVLine algorithm so that it works better with
characters that may not be evenly spaced or that may be slightly rotated. These kinds
of characters are typically produced by dot matrix printers.
The RetryDistance parameter lets you specify the number of pixels to advance to try to
find a character if OCVLine fails to locate one.
The AngleTolerance parameter lets you specify the amount of rotation for each
character. This tolerance parameter is enabled only when the new scoring selection
property, UsePatMaxScoring, is set.
New in OMI 2.3
This section describes changes from OMI 2.2.
Bc Object
The Bc (barcode) object now supports reading Bc128 barcodes in addition to the Bc39
and UPC Type A barcodes that OMI 2.2 supported.
Bc Object Dialog Box Changes
The Bc object dialog box has been redesigned to accommodate the new barcode.
