Ken,
Thank you for the post. I see that there is more to this program than its white-screen function. I appreciate your willingness to share information. Thanks again.
Ken,
Thank you for the post. I see that there is more to this program than its white-screen function. I appreciate your willingness to share information. Thanks again.
This reminds me a nice free application called "ScreenCleaner Pro".

The application cleans up old darkened monitor back to bright.
A freeware, though it's off-season.
Regarding the Light Table, it seems that it can control the color temperature and that's why it's not free.
Everyone's points are well taken.
I am not wildly enthusiastic about the program: I am merely sharing what I found. n fact, I have not yet purchased a copy myself.
If you want to see the greatest thing since sliced bread, then get an Infra Red viewing device.
One nice feature: Light can set the entire screen to white, or whatever color you like - not just a region within a window, or a frame inside a window, or event the desktop background (which will often display icons, the menu bar, or the Dock).
Since my Mac is a laptop with a fairly small screen, it's helpful to turn the whole screen into light source at the press of a button.
I got to my word processing program and open up a blank document. What could be simpler?
Buy a white page. I guess anything can be sold.
OK OK - I give up !
I thought that if the people who wrote the program, would give me a penny for each copy I sell, I could retire, as a billionaire...
But now, thanks to all you smarty-pants LF computer geeks, I will have to abandon my cunning plan, and go back to my day job....
i use safari (blank page) to view my trans sometimes.
but i can't use a lupe as i will be distracted by the RGB diodes
I always use a TextEdit blank window in the bottom right corner of the screen, I put my 4x5 tranny over it and I can color-correct the scan in the 'real' window with the real 'proof' alongside.
Or your web browser to 'about:blank'.
I used that to "scan" my first large format negatives - firefox, "about:blank", and then my digital SLR on a tripod.
Of course the problem was picking up the detail in the display, so then I mounted the negatives a few inches above the laptop with a glass support. Worked well.
