Flexi-Slice tools 

 

 
Lock Slices 

Allows you to rotate the slices whilst maintain a 90 degree angle between them 

 

Rotate 4d 

Rotates the 4D image and the active slice while other slices remain unchanged 

 

Rotate All 

Rotates the 4D image, the active slice and the lines. 

 
In Flexi-Slice mode each cut-plane may be rotated or translated using the Trackball.  
Press Yellow, White or Green on the Touch panel to select which 2d slice will be the Reference 
plane for the 4D image. The volume rendering is updated accordingly. The example below shows 
the Green Cutplane highlighted as the reference plane.
