Toolbar
Toolbar is the section at the top of the Workbench
Window that contains viewing settings for the
structure you are displaying in the Active
Tab and access to
Workbench functional modes (border drawing, region of interest
definition, etc.).
- The Toolbar can be hidden or shown
using the
button at the
top right of the Workbench Window or by clicking on
Toolbar in the View Menu.
- Tooltips
(available by hovering mouse over buttons/elements) are
an easy way to see information on the buttons and
functions on the Toolbar (or throughout wb_view).
Montage Toolbar
- Orientation contains buttons to
set orthogonal and User-defined views of the brain surface
displayed.
- Orthogonal view buttons are labeled: LM
(lateral-medial), DV (dorsal-ventral), AP
(anterior-posterior).
- Using the Mouse
Controls, in Montage view, rotation is
mirrored between hemisphere lateral/medial sides and panning
moves hemisphere sides together or away from each other.
- The Reset button resets the
orientation/zoom to the default.
- Custom
Orientation allows one to set and save (or
not) a specific transform (pan, rotate, oblique rotate,
zoom) for a surface or volume.
- Montage Selection contains
pull-downs and checkboxes to set the surface montage to view.
- Top Left pull-down sets the montage
structure: Cerebral Cortex, Cerebellar Cortex, or Flat. A
structure is only viewable if the appropriate surface is
loaded.
- Top Right pull-down sets the page
orientation of the surfaces displayed. Pull-downs in the
middle set the surface file for each hemisphere from the
list of loaded files. Up to 2 left and 2 right surfaces can
be displayed at once. The checkboxes indicate if the set
surfaces are being displayed.
- Left, Lateral, Medial,
and Right checkboxes indicate if these structures
are being displayed.
- Clipping
contains settings for cutting down Surface, Volume, or
Features data to be viewed.
Tab
contains cross-tab functions for yoking the display of two or more
Viewing Tabs and for locking aspect ratio (used with
annotations). Shading slightly alters the coloring assigned
to brainordinates to provide a better quality image. Shading
only affects surfaces.

Volume Toolbar
- Slice
Plane contains buttons to set which volume slice planes
are displayed: P (parasagittal), C (coronal),
A (axial), All (all 3 planes).
- The Reset button resets the
orientation/zoom to the default.
- Custom
Orientation allows one to set and save (or
not) a specific transform (pan, rotate, oblique rotate,
zoom) for a surface or volume.
- The crosshair button (large '+' symbol)
enables the drawing of crosshairs, representing the selected
slices.
- The crosshair labels button enables
drawing labels indicating the orientation of the viewed
slice.
- Montage contains settings for
viewing multiple volume slices from a single slice plane at
once. Rows/Cols set the number of Rows or
Columns of slices to display. Step sets the index
spacing between slices in the volume slice montage.
- Slice Indices/Coords
contains
settings for the slice index and stereotaxic (Talairach)
coordinate to be viewed for each slice plane.
- The vertical Origin button
rests the slice indices to the default (centered at the
AC).
- The
button (default on)
activates movement of the crosshairs/volume slice to the same
plane as the brainordinate selected in any of the Viewing
Tabs in the same yoking group as the Volume tab.
- The pull-down at the bottom toggles
between Orthogonal and Oblique volume
viewing.
- The button at the left enables the
slices to move to the brainordinate of an identification
operation (mouse click on a volume slice or a surface.
- The "M" button at the right selects
masking during oblique viewing. In oblique viewing,
cubic interpolation is used which may cause edge effects and
masking will remove these edge effects.
- Clipping
contains settings for cutting down Surface, Volume, or
Features data to be viewed.
- Tab
contains cross-tab functions for yoking the display of two or
more Viewing Tabs and for locking aspect ratio (used with
annotations). Shading
slightly alters the coloring assigned to brainordinates to
provide a better quality image. Shading only affects
surfaces.

All Toolbar

(cerebellum).
- The top pull-down menu changes the type
of surface: Anatomical, Inflated or Very Inflated.

and C turn on/off the display of that structure.
- To change the structure's surface file,
click on the L, R or C button and a list of loaded files
will appear for selection.
- The scroll boxes
to the right, control the spacing between left and right
hemispheres (relative to anatomical spacing = 0) and the
spacing of the cerebellum away from the cortex.

parasagittal, C = coronal, A = axial) and
settings for the slice index and stereotaxic (Talairach)
coordinate to be viewed.

the exact range of the data. User allows the user to set
the minimum and maximum of the data displayed.
- Max (Range) Value - The minimum
value in the axis.

scientific notation (eg: 1.32e-2; -2.5e+3; etc.) Auto
chooses a format to best display the values from either
Decimal or Scientific.
- Decimals - When the Format is
Decimal or Scientific, this controls the number of digits
right of the decimal point.

Data/Time
Series (top image) chartable files are graphed
for a brainordinate identified in a non-Chart view Viewing Tab,

CIFTI
Data Series (.dtseries.nii)
*

CIFTI Parcel Series (.ptseries.nii)
*
CIFTI Scalar (.dscalar.nii)

Matrix
(bottom image) chartable files:
*
CIFTI Parcel to
parcel connectivity (.pconn.nii) -- matrix
with parcels as the y-axis rows, parcels as the x-axis
columns, and the colored cells indicate the correlation
(connectivity) values between the parcel pair.
*
CIFTI Parcel Scalar (.pscalar.nii) -- matrix
