Description Alexander Trufanov 2016-01-09 21:15:11 UTC
I'm using scanlite to scan book pages. 2 pages at once. After that the scanned image is splitted in two pages in 3rd party app.
The easiest way to do that is to split image by equal halves.
Unfortunately scanlite doesn't report the size of selection that I made in preview screen. Neither allows to set the selection by known parameters. That means if I restart y laptop before I scan whole book I need to define selection again. And it will be different as I don't know parameters of initial one. Thus when I split scans in halves they will be different size. And this cause inconveniences while scanning of a big books.

Reproducible: Always




Would be great if scnlite dysplays size ant top left point of preview selection and allows to set it by these params.

Hi,
It's bcs I've assigned it to a wrong project. After I forked SkanLite few days ago and played with its code I realized that most of its interface is in fact - KSaneWidget from different project and reflected this in my bugeport. You may want to browse SkanLite bugreports - perhaps several of them are about KSaneWidget too.
