As a prelude to a new image overlay feature in Leveller, I've made a Win32
applet that does the same thing in a more general manner.

 

If you download and run

 

http://www.daylongraphics.com/download/usr/ImageWindow dot exe

 

You'll get a simple window into which you can load uncompressed TGA images.

 

Use the "File, Set Opacity..." command to change the window's transparency
(minimum of 25%). Then you can position the window over Leveller (or any
other program, for that matter) to check registration of visual elements.
For example, if you are trying to arrange a Leveller scene that matches a
photograph, you would load the photo into ImageWindow, position the window
over Leveller's scene pane, and then get an idea of what camera adjustments
or terrain modeling would be required.
