Selecting Images

Introduction

You can select specific images and then apply an image operation, such as window level, pan, or zoom. When you select an image, the image displays a white border. For example, if your tile format is 4-up, you can select images 1 and 3 and window level only those images. Images 2 and 4 are unaffected.

You can only select images from the same viewport. For example, you cannot select images 1 and 4 from Viewport 1 and select images 3 and 5 from Viewport 2 and then apply window level, pan, and zoom to all of the selected images in Viewport 1 and Viewport 2.
