2-14 Merger/Extraction of Image Channels
2-14-1 Setting the Range of Multiple Image Slices
When merging or extracting channels in images composed of multiple image slices, such as
time-lapse images and images acquired by varying the cross-sections, it is possible to select
only some of image slices as the target of channel merger or extraction. This section
describes how to set the range of target image slices.
1. Display the image window of the images composed of multiple image slices.
2. The buttons as shown below are displayed at the top of the image window. To switch to
the image slice of another cross-section, click the <Z/T series switch> button then click
the <XYZ series> button in the displayed list of buttons. To switch to the image slice of
another instant in the elapsed time, click the <Z/T series switch> button then click the
<XYT series> button in the displayed list of buttons. (In these operations, the icon in the
<Z/T series switch> button changes to the icon of the selected button.)
