Calibrated Unmixing Wizard

This wizard enables you to create new reference spectra.

Step 1: Selection of Autofluorescence Spectra

With this step you select autofluorescence spectra. You have the following possibilities:

  • Load an xml file which defines the autofluorescence spectrum, for example a file from a previous run of this wizard.
  • Load an image and draw graphical elements into the image which indicate autofluorescence spectra and background.

If you load an image, it is displayed in the Center Screen Area and you have the 2D and Split view available. If you load an xml file, the chart of the spectrum is displayed in the Center Screen Area.
