Filter Ready Screens

What is it?

Different ready screens can be displayed to show the currently selected filter style, mirroring options, whether face smoothing is enabled and the current value of the ready screen string. This is done by adding the style name, mirroring option etc. to the filename. When the photo booth is running the ready screen will automatically be updated if the user selects an option that changes the filter style, mirroring style, selects face smoothing or changes the ready screen string.

These screens are not compulsory. These are an option if you wish to have even more control over the user interface, allowing you to display which option a user has selected.
