Synchronizing Scenes Views

To facilitate side-by-side comparisons of different datasets, you can automatically synchronize the zoom factor, position, and window leveling between the views in multiple scenes in the workspace. These options are available in the Scenes Views Synchronizer panel. You should note that in this mode, the synchronization of the zoom factor and position is based on absolute coordinates and only images that are related to each other spatially should be synchronized.

  Description

Zoom

If selected, changes to the zoom factor of a view in a synchronized scene will be applied to all other co-planar views in all other scenes in the workspace.

You can keep the images within a scene centered while you inspect different views of a dataset by using the Track and Zoom at Center option (see Using the Manipulate Tools).

Position

If selected, changes to the image stacking and pan position of a view in a synchronized scene will be applied to all other co-planar views in all other scenes in the workspace.

You can keep the images within a scene centered while you inspect different views of a dataset by using the Track Center option (see Using the Manipulate Tools).

Window Level

If selected, changes to window leveling in a synchronized scene will be applied to all other scenes in the workspace.

NOTE For best results, synchronized scene should contain datasets saved in the same primitive data type.

When a scene is synchronized, all other scene views in the workspace will be updated as per the selected synchronize options whenever changes are made to the synchronized scene. A scene that is not synchronized, although other scenes in the workspace may be synchronized, can be manipulated independently.
