Virtual image options

Use to adjust the navigation speed for images displayed in virtual image mode. Click File>Preferences>Display preferences>Virtual Image Options.

 

Movement resolution

Adjust if you have a slow connection to your server or do not want to see lower resolution regions while the full resolution region is loading.

When you navigate to a different region of the image, the region you want to examine may appear pixelated before being displayed at full resolution. This is because the program is loading a lower resolution version of the region before loading the full resolution. This allows faster response for very large images or images hosted on a Biolucida Cloud server.

• Speed: If you set the slider to the left, closest to Speed, the area of interest is loaded at low resolution; loading is faster.
• Quality: If you set the slider to the right, closest to Quality, the area of interest is loaded at full resolution; loading is slower.
• Disable higher resolutions: Images are never displayed at full resolution while you navigate.
