A method and an apparatus for adjusting a suction roll. The method includes: recording images and/or videos of the exterior of the roll and transmitting the recording to a computing unit; determining the actual values of the position of the sealing strips and/or edge deckles and/or other, non-visible components by the computing unit through image analysis of the image and/or video recording of the exterior of the roll and/or by acquiring values from an embedded sensor system; and displaying the determined actual values by superimposing the position of the non-visible components on a display with the image and/or video recording.
