Adding new microscope types

Important: Should not be required for version 0.21 and higher. The cropping value will be determined automatically based on the extracted metadata.

Currently, only the system types Helios G4 FX, Strata DB, and Quanta FEG are implemented in FEI Crop Scalebar. You can add others in the following way:

• Open a SEM/FIB image of your FEI/TFS machine.

• Run EM tool->SEM FEI metadata scale and check the Log window for the system type: [System] SystemType : ScopeName

• For images of different size (e.g. 4096 by Y, 2048 by Y, 1024 by Y, ...) check the cut-off point (pixel) between the image and the info bar (zoom in). Add a new if clause to the macro similar to the ones already in the macro (starting with if(SystemType == ScopeName). E.g., for newer systems (Helios G4 FX) the cut-off is a power of two (512, 1024, ...) but for older scopes (such as Strata DB) the values are more 'random' and you can simply specify a list with the cut-off values for different image sizes.
