====== How to Add Collections ======

**1. When to use Collections**\\
Collections (aka projects) are the way to organize one or more slides for quick access and side-by-side comparison. With Collections you can flexibly group several slides however you want to, whether it’s multiple slides from the same individual, staining, or tissue type. Collections can be further organized by Cases, with each Case representing an individual subject, organ or timepoint.\\
\\
You can also make Collection-specific annotations and export them.\\

**2. Steps**\\
1) Go to "My collections" in the sidebar.

2) Click on "+ New collection" in the middle of the page, or at the top of the page if your account already has some collections

Now you are able to add slides to your case by selecting slides and pressing "Add selected"

5) You can now preview your newly created collection by clicking on the “Preview” button.  

All the slides in your collection appear in the Slides panel on the left of the viewing window. Slides in your collection can be viewed one at a time, or side by side in multi-view. \\ 

**3. Multi-view and Collection-Specific Annotation**\\
To start comparing additional slides, simply click a slide’s thumbnail in the “Slides” side panel (1) to add them to the main display. To remove a slide from multi-view display, click the (now outlined) slide thumbnail in the “Slides” side panel to toggle it's inclusion.

You can also edit a slide’s annotations by clicking the “Edit annotations” button (2). These annotations will only be visible in the collection.
