TIF Tagged Image File [.TIF, .TIFF] Import Automation Options
Since the Import Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options. A typical example would be:
"Defaults=1,CustomNoData=1,CustomNoDataValue=-32767"
This would first set all import options to their default values, then use a custom NoData value for the grid file.

AutoContrast |

1 |
0 to import the raster data TIFF Z values exactly. 1 to increase contrast by remapping values from 0 - 255. Option should be used when importing a grid TIFF as an image rather than grid. |
Remarks
These import automation options are only used when importing the TIF file as a grid, for example with LoadFile2 [Grid]. There are no import options when importing a TIF image, e.g. with Import2, or using the TIF image to create a base map, e.g. with AddRasterBaseMap.
