Importing Objects

You can import all of the objects or selected objects that were exported in the Dragonfly Object file (*.ORSObject extension) format. Dragonfly Object files are proprietary binary formatted files in which data is written sequentially and XML (Extensible Markup Language) is appended after the binary data. These files can contain multiple objects such as image data, regions of interest, and annotations.

You can also import objects that were saved in a session file (*.ORSSession extension). See Importing Objects from Session Files for more information.
