Today I've been reading profile patches in i1Profiler by hand, using the i1pro and newer version of the 'scan ruler'. Seven profiles with 3000 patch charts for each. Half way through reading the fifth set of patches I got so annoyed at how slow all this hand scanning was going that I deliberately read the next strip of patches in the WRONG direction! "Take that!" I thought. To my utter delight i1Profiler took it in it's stride and put the measurements in the right way around. Taking advantage this newly discovered ability of i1Profiler's ability to read patch strips in either direction speed things up from there. I realised that as an old spectral vision pro (colorburst) user, I had been habituated to having to scan patches in the 'right direction'. I had unthinkingly carried this habit over to using i1Profiler. Thanks XRite for that feature! Regards Peter Miles
