Using the Image Viewing Workspace

Using Analyses

In the Image Viewing Workspace, an analysis can store a configuration of the workspace that includes:

• The images being viewed in the workspace (including FMS templates)

• Size and position of images, unless you have activated Auto-Arrange

• Any filters that you have applied to one or more individual images

• Any measurements, drawings, or annotations attached to images

Note:  You can have more than one analysis stored in CS Imaging, but only one can be used at a time.

Using the Default Workspace Analysis
