3.2.8.1 Defining Channels and Tracks
The Channel tool displays every track in the Track
Selection display area that is currently open in
the Light Path tool.
The Track names and the used Channels (Cam1
or Cam2) for that track are indicated. Each track
that is selected by mouse click is highlighted and is
displayed in the
Track Configuration display
area, which allows for individual settings for each
track (Fig. 78).
A track will only be active when the
Continuous ,
Snap
, or
Start Experiment button
is pressed if
the track check box is ticked.
Changes in the selection of the tracks in the
Channel
tool will automatically update the
selection in the Light Path tool and vice versa.
E.g. if Track 1 and Track 2 are selected in the
Channel tool, they will be selected in the Light
Path
tool as well.
You can either display one track or all of the
tracks. There is no possibility to display two or
three out of all four tracks.
