-Using the tree view the user can navigate through the available directories. You only see the sub directories that are "true" sub directories. PMA.core is smart enough to filter out standard sub directories that belong e.g. to Olympus VSI or 3DHistech MRXS slides, or reserved directories only used by the operating system (like .snapshots on Apple-originating samba-share).

 Clicking on a directory will display its contents in the middle section. Several operations can be performed on a directory:

 When an image is selected, its information is presented in the image panel.
-{{ :man3.png?nolink&400 |}}
+{{ :image_manager_3.png?nolink&400 |}}
 Several informational fields are displayed in the selected image panel:
