While we do not have a promised date for such a thing, the solution we have come up with for this is referred to as “Auto Focus Sets”. An Auto Focus Set is independent of the sequence but can be attached to a sequence (like a user profile for example).
The Auto Focus set editor allows for
- Capture of the current target to establish a working canvas
- Drawing tools that add regions for capture
- Drawing tools that remove regions from capture
- Duplicate existing as a starting point for new
- Form elements to allow for naming the set
- Form elements to allow a default auto focus set designation
Then…
- A sequence may have a global default set (this would be a set that was crafted as a result of optical abberations specific to equipment and nothing to do with targets… e.g. star pilling at the corners, etc)
- Then, in the cases where the default set is not adequate, every target in a sequence can establish an auto focus set override. It is here that yoy may wish to specify a set that has the center middle cut out or something similar.
