In this view you see the representation of the microscope stage. The Live image from the camera (blue frame) is automatically shown in the middle of the image area. Furthermore a tool window is displayed, that allows you to control the image acquisition, e.g. perform auto exposure or acquire an individual tile image.
In the image area the full travel range of the microscope stage is displayed. You can control the stage view using the arrow icons at the edges of the image area. The view can be enlarged, reduced or moved using the general control elements.
The current stage position is shown as a tile outlined in blue, the Navigator frame. In the Navigator frame you can see the camera's live image.
To move the frame, double-click on the position on the microscope stage to which you want to move it.
To acquire images, use the Acquisition buttons in the Tools window.
The tool window for panorama view is normally visible in the lower right corner of the center screen area. It becomes active if you move the cursor over it. You can use it to set acquisition parameters and acquire tile images for your panorama image.
