Using the Image Workspace and Presentations as a
Slide Viewer in Insight® JVA Client

Using the Image Workspace as a Slide Viewer:

A useful capability of Luna InsightŪ is to use the Image Workspace as a slide viewer, placing two images side by side for comparative viewing.

To do this, open a collection in the Group Window by using the File Menu.

Next, select your first image and double click on it. This moves the image directly from the Group Window to the Image Workspace.

Use the return arrow to go back to the Group Window and select your second image. Double click on that image and it will be moved directly from the Group Window to the Image Workspace. There, you can arrange the two images as you please and use the other Image Workspace features.

For best viewing, the maximum number of images is probably four.

Using a Presentation as a Slide Viewer:

To use a Presentation as a slide viewer to compare two or more images, you will first create a group of images from the Group Window by selecting the images from the collection and using the New Group feature from the File menu. After you have created a group, go to the Group menu and select Create Presentation.

The images shown as thumbnails are the images that have been selected for this presentation. In order to show two images at once in a presentation, they have to be linked together.

To link them, select the first image and click on the Link button in the control panel below the thumbnail images. The outline around the second image and the number associated with it will be highlighted to indicate that the first image is now linked to the second image.

You will not see the results until you show the presentation. Save and close the presentation using the Save and close button in the control panel below the thumbnail images. Use the Return arrow to return to the Group Window.

Show the presentation by clicking on the presentation icon shown in the illustration on the next page.

The linked images may appear overlapped as if they were just one image but they can be easily separated using your mouse to drag them apart.
