WinLab V2.0 by G. Desoli Ph.D. Engineering S.R.L.
The first version on WinLab was a utility to display and converts various image formats. Up to now WinLab is
migrating versus a powerful tool to do image editing processing and navigation.
WinLab capabilities are:
Reading and writing many image formats
Advanced image processing capabilities (resizing, rotating, filtering, enhancement, color correction, equalization
etc.)
Batch processing (reading and writing)
DDE and OLE management
Image database navigation (trough the use of folders)
Link with a relational database to maintain large amounts of images
This demo version supports only reading and writing unmodified images but all functionalities are still usable in
order to evaluate the program.
Finally WinLab fully supports language customization trough the use of a simple configuration file (only English
and Italian currently available, but you can easily add one yourself)

WinLab Folder management
Folders are special MDI child windows containing a scaled down version of images in order to fast previewing
them. You can double-click on an icon inside a folder to open the corresponding image.
We are also adding support for attaching information records to images into folders. You will be able to build
folders from query applied to the image database and to navigate trough information.
Installing and configuring
To install the program you have simply to decompress the demo distribution package into a directory
and then add winlab.exe to your program manager (choose new/program)
The first time WinLab starts, it disply a message when rebuilding the language database)
To change the language find the entry
[WinLab]
in the win.ini file in the windows directory
Then change the entry
International=
to point to the new WinLab international file (only it.int and eng.int included with this demo)
