Super Fast Photo Selection
In the selection of photos to accompany a form or report, there are many considerations — especially the more photos there are to use. Some reports may have 100 photos to be attached.
How to efficiently select 100 photos?
Preparing and selecting 100 photos to accompany a report can be very time consuming. Every step in the process of preparing and selecting 100 photos would be repeated 100 times. If there are 10 steps for each photo, that would mean 1000 steps to do.
Can The Steps for Including Each Photo be reduced to 1?
Yes.
MultiForm reduces the steps involved to include a photo/image with a form to 1 — the actual selection of the photo or image itself.
- Double Click to Select Photo...
- Double Click to Select Photo...
- Double Click to Select Photo...
Notice that there were no intervening steps! No. None. Zip. Nada. No dialogs that disappear after each selection. No dialogs to have bring back up. No having to navigate back to where you were working. No having to find your place again. Over and Over. No steps with other software to compress or size the photos.
Only the actual selection remains. How? You ask.
The following illustrations show how this is accomplished. This method of selecting and included images with a form is faster than any other method. This method is faster than drag and drop. It takes the drag out of drag–and–drop.
| Step 1: Select the 1st Image |

| Step 2: Select the 2nd Image |

| Step 3: Select the 3rd Image |

Speed Test Results
In speed tests we did, by selecting 15 photos by double clicking with a mouse, and selecting 15 photos by arrowing to photo and pressing enter (the alternate method of selecting a photo), the following were our results...
15 in 15
Selecting 15 photos
- via Double Click of mouse took only ... 21.1 seconds ...
- via Arrow, Press Enter key took only ... 15.1 seconds ...
When it comes to quality accomplishing a task, we like speed. Handling 15 photos or images in 15.1 seconds is pure speed. Even at a lengthy 21.1 seconds with the mouse, we could probably take some license and still call that pure speed!
But Wait! That's not all!
In the same 15.1 seconds each photo was automatically sized to fit the photo slot AND, AND was compressed — twice!! Speed, Speed, and more Speed.

“I love your new software. And doing the pictures is just too easy. I used to go through this long process of handling photos. Now I just select the picture and it's there sized and ready to go. Sometimes I allow myself half the day to do a report, but then I'm done in just a little while.” [...and have time to go to the beach or golfing :) ]
