Window Dimensions Panel

Main Help Desk    Table of Contents

Description :

The Windows Dimensions Panel lets the user set the window for the associated object.  When Optiscan does its calculations, it only performs then on the data within the window.  The rest of the data is discarded for that calculation.

The Windows Dimensions Panel is also used when adding pieces to a mask.   The piece is inserted into the mask based on the boundaries of the user specified window.

As the window's size and window's center is changed, the Window will be resized and moved accordingly.
