ROES Designer

This powerful tool will allow you to completely modify products specified by Alkit – nodes can be moved, added, deleted, resized, or rotated and set to accept images, text, or backgrounds you would like to add! The ability to add text colors, image opacity, drop shadows and grid constraints will give you the freedom to create your own unique products.

Image strokes and fill colors can be added automatically via a color scheme and size selection window. Any new products created in AlkitROES can be stored locally for future use.

ROES Packager

The Packager allows you to define your own packages from the products offered by Alkit – perfect for studio, school, and sports pictures. Photographers can create various package groups, then create packages by dragging products from your Catalog pane into the ROES cropping pane.

The ROES cropping area is transformed into a free form package creation area. When an image is added to a package and the package is added to the order, each product in the package is added to the order. This speeds order entry for commonly offered photographer products.

ROES Records

This powerful new tool will allow you to automate the Sports, School or other mass ‘Data Sensitive’ order entry process. Records can dramatically reduce the time it takes to enter in large sports and event orders for studios that continue to send in run sheets and a CD of images. Records enables photographers to import csv or comma-delimited files with subject data and match it with individual and group images for mass ordering.

No file to import? No problem. Records also enables photographers to create rows and columns with data quickly then associate that data with customer images. Once the table is verified, the powerful Auto process can automatically build ROES products with little or no user assistance.
