Windows
When you initially open amira, 3 windows (either separate or conjoined will pop up). The 3 windows include a Viewer Window, a Console Window, and a main window. Each will be explained below. If the windows are conjoined, you can separate them following instructions on Viewer Options in Amira
The Main Window
The main window is the one used for majorly interacting with your model, slice data and Amira in General. It is here where you will select how you will interact with Amira, mainly what mode you wish to work in -- Segmentation or Pool view.
Upon opening Amira the Main window will be entitled "Amira - Your File Name"
Segmentation Mode
To enter segmentation mode, click the segmentation button (top of screen, looks like 3 stacked slices, 4th from left)
Within Segmentation mode, the Main Window will house:
- Segmentation Tools
- The Materials Window
- Selection tools (add and delete materials)
- Display and masking tools (to interact with the 3D portion of the slice viewer)
In Segmentation mode, you interact with 2D slice data (in your Viewer Window) to segment out your materials and begin building your surfaces.
