Printing

Many times it is important to print out the comparison frames or multiple frames of the same performance. VIS lets you automatically arrange the number of frames and placement in rows and columns.  The philosophy is that you start with a clean piece of paper and assemble the images you want in a print layout.  You might first place the KEY FRAME sequence of the learner and then add the KEY FRAME sequence of the expert (See the image on the Comparing How To for an example of this technique).   For a final touch, you might an important frame with angles drawn to emphasize a focus area.

The print layout has a provision for you to add your logo so that it is automatically placed on each page.  You can set variables such as the date, student name and time of day to automatically appear on each page and be updated.  All printing and print setup is done internally in VIS without having to use other software.

Print layouts have been designed so that you don't spend many mouse clicks preparing them.  Students don't come to you to watch you operate your computer. We strive to make your necessary output and computer interaction invisible to your student.

Quick Text

We have found that most instructors (us included) are somewhat like broken records - we seem to repeat the same instructions over and over. VIS allows you to type in these comments so that you can add them to your print layout by simply clicking on Quick Text, selecting your comment, and dragging it to the appropriate place on the layout.   Quick text notes can be organized by topic (such as practice instructions, side view comments, mental training notes) so that you can find them quickly.
