Why misalignment using GET SCALED IMAGE?

[Darin.K]

You are missing some subVIs in the demo file, but I was able to roll my own and it appears that the scaling is being done with nearest neighbor interpolation.  I was able to finely tune the scaling and see quite crazy results (you seem to have hit a relative "sweet spot") other factors are quite worse.  My own scaling VI uses bilinear interpolation which gives a much better result with a slight hit in speed.  My suggestion is to use the zoom factor of the picture control.

The Front Panel looks like this on my machine:

Checking the zoom three different ways:  Get Image Scaled, Home-built interpolation, built-in zoom

Hmmm.  I don't see which ones - everything in my copy is in the BugDemo folder, or in VI.lib.

Yeah, that does look better.  It's just a print-preview, but for critical stuff, the SCALED IMAGE thing is not to be trusted.

Thanks for your insights.
