Note: You will find that as you become more familiar with the application, you
will skip operations that are not needed for your particular images.
In their expanded format, the Quick Guide commands are numbered as well
as named, so that the order of operation is clear. Simply follow the steps and
the Quick Guide will lead you through the analysis.
As with the secondary toolbars, you can click on the “?” next to the name of a
function to display the Help text.
2.2 Mouse-assignable Tools
A number of commands don’t perform actions right away, but instead
“assign” a function to your mouse (e.g., Zoom Box, Density at Cursor, Lane
Background). You first select one of these tools from a menu or toolbar, then
execute the command by clicking or dragging on the image.
Note: Mouse-assignable tools selected using the keyboard have slightly
different behavior. See the next section.
Fig. 2-7. Example of a mouse-assignable tool: Density at Cursor
When a “mouse-assignable” function is selected, the cursor appearance
changes. The name and icon of the function appear in the status box next to
the main toolbar (see section 2.1.c).
To deassign a function from the mouse, click on the toolbar button of the
assigned function or click in the status box displaying the assigned function.
You can also double-click on the Hide Overlays button.
