Software Functional Configuration

Page

Software Functional Configuration

This software uses panel-type windows.

Usually, it is required to “select a menu then select the command to be executed” in order to

execute a function provided by software. With the panel system, a software function can be

executed easily by “selecting the panel page tab of the function to be executed”, just like

when using a system notebook or file folder.

Function Window and Image Window

The FLUOVIEW software is organized by two kinds of windows, the function windows and

the image .window.

The function windows include the [Acquire], [File I/O], [Tile], [Process], [Analyze] and

[Visualize] panels.

The image .window shows either the [Live] panel or the panel image loaded from a file

([(filename)] window).

In this manual, the function windows are referred to simply using their

page tabs.

Namely, the [File I/O] panel of function windows is referred to simply as the

[File I/O] panel.

Icons Executed by Dragging & Dropping

This software selects image files and observation methods (dye name) by means of

dragging & dropping. This allows simple selection based on an intuitive operation of

“selecting an icon (image file or observation method), dragging it to the desired position and

dropping it there”.

Identification of Images Depending on the Observation Methods

On many occasions, FLUOVIEW displays image

icons to allow identification of the observation

method used when each image is acquired. (See

table on the left.)

When the [File I/O], [Tile], [Process], [Analyze] or

[Visualize] panel is selected, the icon of the image

selected in the image window is displayed in a

frame at the top of the function panel. The image

icons are also displayed in the [Icon] field in the

[Files] list box in the [File I/O] panel or during

dragging of an image file.

Use these icons to identify the observation methods

used in image acquisition.

In all observation modes, the icons for 3

or more channels are identical.

Image Icon Significance

XZ observation, 2-channel mode

Xt observation
