General Interface
When opening ZScan, the user first sees the main interface shown above. It is subdivided
in 5 main parts:
1.
Menu
2.
Toolbar
3.
Scan Tree
4.
Expanding Panels
5.
3D Viewer
The Menu and the Toolbar are complementary to each other. The toolbar offers the main
functions to the user, while some more advanced functions are located only in the
menu. Each of these functions will be described and located later.
The Scan Tree allows the user to select the mode under which the software operates. By
default, the scan mode is selected, in which the user is shown the surface and the
positioning targets. The other modes available are features, reference, surface, facets
and recycle bin modes. By selecting the corresponding scan tree node, the functions
relevant to the current context are displayed to the user. These functions will be
described and located further on in this chapter.
