- | Let's say that you want to build a website with 3 collections about various organ systems: bladder, breast, and lung. | + | The user interface of PMA.slidebox is structured as follows: |
- | You have three folders on your hard disk that reflect this: | + | {{ ::pma_slidebox_ux.png?400 |}} |
- | Initially, you only have a couple of reference slides per system, so each folder received a couple of [[https://www.pathomation.com/formats|slides from various scanners]]: | + | Under the menu-bar, in the top-right corner, the icons for the defined collections are specified. |
- | After organizing your folders at the file system level, you go to PMA.core and define your root-directories: | + | By default, the first collection is selected, and the cases are listed underneath. Similarly, the slides per case are grouped under each case header. |
- | You can navigate the folders directly on the hard disk using a local installation of [[https://free.pathomation.com|PMA.start]], or remotely via PMA.core. Either way, the view on the slides should be the same. If not, you should be back to PMA.core and modify your root-directory settings. | + | {{ ::pma_slidebox_collections_all.png?400 |}} |
+ | Switching collections is done by clicking on any of the other collection icons. | ||
+ | {{ ::pma_slidebox_collections_2.png?400 |}} | ||
+ | A collection can consist of any number of cases, and each case in turn can have any number of slides contained within it. The user interface uses lazy loading to prevent unacceptable load times when you want to provide many cases with many slides. | ||
