The Multi-Image Window

Multi-Image window Lists the images in the selected folder.

Thumbnail area Displays the imag- es in the selected folder as thumb- nail previews.

Image area Shows the image

currently being edited. Images are edited in the same way as in image windows ( 29).

The Multi Image window can be used to display multiple images without opening them in separate im- age windows, reducing the amount of memory required. No more than one Multi-Image window can be open at a time. Before opening a folder in the Multi-Image window, make sure that none of the images in the selected folder are open in image windows. If the user attempts to open one of the im- ages in the thumbnail list in an image window, it will be opened in the image area of the Multi-Image window instead.
