The Side Panel provides is composed of four panes: Capture, Device, Sequence and Analysis. Click the specific label "Capture, Devices, Sequence or Analysis" to view a specific pane. The Side Panel can be placed on either side of the application window; by default, it is located on the left side. The Panes are grouped in the Side Panel but may be separated or reordered by left clicking the mouse and dragging the pane to the desired location. Use the quick tabs when moving panes for easy placement.
The Panes are task oriented and composed of various setup and control panels. Every panel contains a set of controls that are function specific; for example, the camera exposure, gain, offset and filter selection are all managed through the Camera Control Pane. Use the arrow in the upper right corner of the pane to expand or minimize the panel.
