Tiles View Options

This view options are specific for the Tiles & Positions module.

Tiles Tab

Here you can define how the software behaves when the live image is started and the Tiles - Advanced Setup is open.

Parameter

Description

New Tab

Opens the live or continuous image into a new image container.

Separate Container

Opens a live or continuous image into a separate container. Both the Tiles - Advanced Setup and the live or continuous images are visible in parallel. We recommend activating this checkbox, especially if you use two separate monitors. You may also want to use the Automatic Contanier Layout setting found in the view option dropdown list of the Document Bar in the Center Screen Area.

Tiles View

Displays the live or continuous image in place in the Stage View of the Tiles - Advanced Setup.

Center to Stage Position

You can use this function if you need quickly to re-find your current location. Re-centers the Stage View onto the current stage position coordinates at the preset zoom level. You can also activate this function with Ctrl + B. You can call the function to focus the image with the mouse wheel by pressing and holding the Ctrl key when the mouse cursor is over the stage view.

Carrier Tab

Only visible if a sample carrier is selected.
Here you can see a graphical preview of the sample carrier being used.

Carrier grid A-B,1-3. Top row: yellow; orange blue-bordered; half yellow-orange blue-bordered. Bottom: 3 grey wells.

Only the containers/wells whose tile regions and positions were set up with the Tiles Carrier Toolbar or the Positions Carrier Toolbar will be taken into account.
