4. Tool window - labSens 

Use the 

labSens 

 tool window as an easy-to-use graphical user interface. All of 

the commands that you use on a regular basis are available in this tool window 
and are displayed as large buttons. 

If the 

labSens

  tool window is hidden, use the 

View > Tool Windows > Record 

Details > labSens 

 command to make it appear. 

Use the 

labSens

  tool window to acquire, annotate, and measure images. If you 

have purchased the "Patho" solution with your software, you have a database 
available to you. The workflow is then organized as a series of cases for you to 
work on. First, click the 

Start Case

 button and perform all of the image 

acquisitions, annotations and measurements necessary for this case. The 
images are automatically saved in the database. A case folder is created in the 
database for every case that you work on. Every case folder contains a subfolder 
for each microscope slide that you’ve examined. 

Please note: If you haven't purchased the "Patho" solution with your software, 
you won't have a database and the case processing feature available to you. In 
this case, use the 

File > Save

 and 

File > Save As...

 commands to save the 

images on your hard disk. 

In the 

labSens

  tool window, buttons are only active if their function is relevant to 

the current step. Inactive buttons appear in gray. In this way, you'll be guided 
through the case step by step after clicking the 

Start Case

 button.
