- ENVI_FX_RULEBASED_DOIT (Rule Based Feature Extraction)

ENVI cannot load images from the Layer Manager when SELinux is enabled
|
When installing
CentOS 5, the default
SELinux setting is "Enforcing." With this setting, the following error
appears when you attempt to open an image:
Failed to open
image. This
may be due to SELinux settings. Please see the Release Notes for ENVI,
or
contact your System Administrator.
Workaround: Change
the SELinux
setting to "Permissive" or "Disabled" by setting
SELINUX=permissive
or SELINUX=disabled in /etc/sysconfig/selinux and
rebooting. |

ENVI
5.0 cannot produce the same saturation stretch results as 4.8 |
| In previous
versions, a saturation stretch could be created on an image based on
the displayed results. In ENVI 5.0, performing a saturation stretch
from the display does not produce the same saturation stretch image as
before. Workaround:
Open and
display the image, apply a 2% stretch, and save the result to a new
file. Apply the saturation stretch to this new image. Note:
This also affects the RGB to HSV type transforms and HSV image sharpening. |

Example is incorrect for the LANGUAGE property to the ENVI function |
The help topic for the ENVI function (under Programming > Routines in the table of contents) shows an incorrect example for the LANGUAGE property:
envi = ENVI(LANGUAGE='Japanese')
It should read:
envi = ENVI(LANGUAGE='JPN')
