Mosaic view button opens up a mosaic window with all output virus files created by ethan from selected input file. This function can only be used when a micrograph file from a processed group is selected. |
Close button closes micrograph window and passes particle radius and cutout box size (if they were set) to the group.
If the radius of the particle is not known apriori, it will have to be determined from one of the micrographs. Click for example on 1.mrc, you will see that the "eye" button in the center of main window was become active, press it. You will see a new window displaying the given micrograph. If the micrograph is large you might have to zoom in, to find a particle that is well represebtative of the others. In order to zoom, click on the "looking glass" button on the left side of the micrograph. Then select a region of the micrograph by first cliking upper left corner, hold the mouse button down and drag it to the right bottom corner, when it is done relese mouse botton. Remeber that the micrograph viewer will not zoom closer then 1:1 with the screen resolution. If you want to jump imeddiately to closest possible view press "1:1" button in the "Zoom & Pan" frame. When you think the view of particles is good, select the radius. Press the "radius" button (located just below the "looking glass" button), position mouse cursor on the outer edge of one particle. Press and hold mouse button, drag it so that the green circle exactly covers the particle, release the button. You will now see that in "Radius" tab, in "Ethan Params" frame there appeared a value, this is the radius of the circle you have just produced in pixels. Now you have to set the box size. This procedure is similar to setting the radius. Press "box" button (located under radius button) then drag the box above one of the particles so that it covers the whole particle. Notice that the box size is now set in the "Ethan Params" frame. You can change box size and radius any number of times. When you are satisfied with the values, clock "close" button int he upper right corner of the window.
