Using the Slice Tool
Some applications, require the use of a three-dimensional image, rather than
the standard two-dimensional image. DigitalMicrograph gives you a control to
choose which layer (slice) of the three-dimensional dataset to display as the
image.
-
Select Floating Windows:Slice under the Window menu. This will
open the Slice floating window.
-
Select the three-dimensional image for which you want to change the
slice. The Slice window will be disabled if the data is not three
dimensional.
-
Drag the top slider to adjust the slices displayed.
-
Drag the bottom slider to adjust the number of slices to be integrated
and displayed simultaneously.
-
Check the Display Center check box to show all coordinates with
respect to the center.

Using the Slice Player
Use the slice player to automatically go through (first to last or back and forth)
a 3-dimensional image (a stack) or a set of images saved by the Record
Milling mode. To view images saved by Record Milling, they must first be
opened using the Open Series option.
