Introduction: Using the GUI

The GUI is used to calibrate the scanners, calibrate the sample, and set up stimuation coordinates.
Start the sofware.
A window will open after a short delay.
A live image of the sample is displayed. Coordinates are in mm with 0 mm being the image centre. There are two tabs. "Calibrate Scanners" allows you to align the scanners with respect to the camera. "Calibrate Sample" is used to project stereotaxic coordinates onto the image space. The status bar along the bottom has indicators to show whether these two steps have been achieved.
Stimuli are defined using "stimulus configuration files". These can be loaded and created via menu options under "File". The name of the loaded stimulus config file is displayed in the status bar area.
