Browse and Remove Images in the Image Browser

The Image Browser displays thumbnail images in groups of 20. If there are more than 20 images open in the Image Browser, use the image browser controls to navigate the images. When you are viewing images in thumbnail view, you can begin processing an image by selecting the image and clicking Process Images or by double-clicking the image.

You can view the thumbnail images in full size by clicking the Thumbnail/Full-Size View toggle button at the bottom of the Image Browser. When you are viewing the image in full-size view, use the image browser controls to navigate the images. You can use these buttons to scan the images in reverse or forward order and view the images continuously. Vision Assistant displays the current location, image size and type, and the file type below the image.

Remove Images from the Image Browser

You can remove images from the Image Browser in both the thumbnail and full-size views.

Caution Caution  
  • If you click Close Selected Image while in thumbnail view without selecting an image, Vision Assistant prompts you to close all images in the Image Browser.
  • If you remove images that you acquired and sent to the Image Browser, the images are deleted from memory and you cannot retrieve them.

To remove an image from the Image Browser in thumbnail view, select the image and click Close Selected Image. To remove multiple images from the Image Browser, click each image that you want to close, and then click Close Selected Image.

To remove an image from the Image Browser in full-size view, click Close Selected Image while the image is visible.

Note Note  Removing an image from the Image Browser does not delete the image from disk.
