For information on how to use FCheck options, see FCheck options.

Windows/Mac OS X Linux Description

-a

-a

Displays all blocks, giving the coordinates and weight of each tile (to be used with the -c option).

Note: Blocks and tiles are image spaces Maya uses in its process of rendering an image.

 

-B

Turns off the border around an image.

 

-C <x> <y> <width> <height>

Crops an image. <x> and <y> represents the bottom left starting plane points. Use <width> and <height> to size the image.

-c

-c

Checks completeness of the .iff tags present in a sequence. If the sequence is incomplete or corrupted, FCheck prints out an error. This is done without opening the sequence.

 

-D

Sets up your machine for stereo mode. However, if stereo mode is not activated, you need to quit FCheck so that the video mode is restored.

-d

-d

Runs in demo mode using a full screen window.

-F

-F

Displays images in full resolution preventing automatic rescaling of large images.

-f

-f

Finds the first available image in an animation.

-G <gamma>

-G <gamma>

Sets the gamma value in RLA images. Use <gamma> to specify value.

-g

-g

Initial gamma correction, which you can change at any time.

-h

-h

Lists FCheck feature commands (Help).

-K

-K

Does inverse Kodak Cineon color correction (log to linear).

-k <mem>

-k <mem>

Stores or keeps images in memory, using the amount of memory defined in <mem> as a percentage of available memory. A value of 1 means that 100% of memory is allocated.

-l <level>

-l <level>

The level of analysis for complex IFF (Image File Format) style files.

-m <mag>

-m <mag>

Magnifies an image. <mag> is an integer specifying the factor of magnification.

-n <start> <interval>

<end> <filename>

-n <start> <interval>

<end> <filename>

Opens animations, indicating the start, end and step of the file (whole numbers). If you give a name ending with a period, FCheck automatically finds the start, end, and step of the corresponding animation.

See Opening an animation using the -n optionfor more details.

-p

-p

Pads frame numbers with zeros, needed for some image formats.

-r <rate>

-r <rate>

The rate at which animations are displayed. The default is ntsc, but you can also specify pal, film, or an integer number of frames per second (for example, 15).

 

-R <x> <y>

Changes the resolution of an image by reducing image size. <x> and <y> represent the new width and height values respectively.

-s <shrink>

-s <shrink>

Reduces an image. <shrink> is an integer specifying the factor of reduction.

-S

-S

Displays a sequence of images that are not arranged in any particular order, creating a loop of images, animations and sounds.

-T <timer>

-T <timer>

Sets the number of seconds each frame is displayed. This option is used in combination with the ‑S option.

-v

-v

Verbose mode allows the maximum information output.

-w

-w

Waits until the image has finished rendering. The image is displayed only after the rendering is completed.

-z

-z

Prevents Z-depth information from being loaded for images. This is useful when you do not have much memory.

-Z

-Z

Loads Z-depth information for images in animation mode.

On Windows, you can access keyboard short cuts by selecting Help > Keyboard from the FCheck window.
