DataViewer user interface

User interface

Current DataViewer interface
The image and navigation controls are on the left; the temporal plot, ROI table, and event controls are on the right.

The image panel displays the selected frame. Clicking a pixel moves the crosshair and updates the black temporal trace. The plot also shows colored traces for visible ROIs. The table below it controls ROI visibility, selection, names, colors, geometry, and current-frame measurements. Event controls become available when the Save Folder contains usable events.mat information.

Menus

DataViewer Management menu
The Management menu separates routine folder, project, and rig association from File operations.
