Introduction

This article follows on from Explore the Imagery Page - Light Table. If you haven't viewed this article, it is recommended you do so before continuing because some important concepts are introduced and demonstrated there.

The Image Gallery provides the means to view an entire Collection in one go. Images are displayed in the form of large thumbnails. This is useful where there may be a need;

For a quick visual image scan of an entire Collection e.g. to identify a specific image or depth range
To create Imagery e.g. where an image has been archived (deleted) and a replacement image is to be uploaded.
To archive an image or to archive a batch of images in one go.
To provide/replace Imagery Names in one convenient place.

Image Gallery Page

In this article, the focus will be on one particular Collection. However, the method discussed is the same for any Collection.

After logging in, the familiar Imagery Page is displayed, with an empty Light Table.

Click an image on this page (or any article) to see a larger version.

Select a Collection and Image Type

Steps:

In the Browse Workspace Panel, Select Core Boxes, an Imagery Type in the Drilling Core Dataset which belongs to the Firefly Resource Development Workspace:

On initial log on, this is the default display.

Select a Collection:

In the Active Imagery Panel, the associated Wet and Dry Image Types Names are displayed with Wet selected automatically. Other aspects such as Attribute, Feature and Label Names are shown, In expanded view:

Core Trays are displayed on the Light Table. Let's switch to Image Gallery View (upper right corner):

The display changes to Gallery View:

In brief:

1	Gallery View. The default initial view. Image thumbnail with the Image Type(s) and Depth Start and Finish shown.
2	List View. Display as a summary list.
3	Tab showing Collection and Imagery Type Names. For each Collection selected in the Browse Workspaces Panel, there will be a separate tab and associated Gallery/List view.
4	Gallery/List displayed for selected Collection/Image Type(s). Note the box outline is on the screenshot only. It does not appear in the Gallery View.

Gallery View

With Editing Off, any actions are essentially view only. Let's change the left panel to show information:

Information is displayed for the highlighted (yellow outline) image in the Gallery. Selectin another image displays information relating to that image:

The selected image in Gallery view is not replicated on the Light Table. The selection only applies to actions in the Gallery view.

Returning to the Datasets Browser Panel let's select the Dry Image Type too:

Both Image Types appear as thumbnails alongside the relevant start and end depth.

Let's take things a little further by turning Editing On:

It is possible to add new Imagery with relevant start and end depths (1) and then click Create Imagery (2):

Why do this? Perhaps the Collection (drillhole in this case) has been extended and new imagery is available. Using the above example, the Gallery displays place holders for the images:

Image Tools or Imago Connect could be used to upload the associated images.

Each Image has a small trash can overlayed. Clicking this will archive the image.

Archive is essentially a permanent delete. So, be sure your want to do this. The process is irreversible.

List View

Let's switch to List View (bottom right-hand corner):

Archiving

To archive all images in the collection:

Click to select all. When doing so, the Archive symbol is displayed alongside:

Click the Archive icon.

To archive a subset of images:

select each one:

Click the Archive icon.

To archive, individual images such as Wet (1 below), click the archive icon:

There is no need to select the image using the selector box to the left.

To archive, all images for a specific depth start and finish, click the archive icon (2) on the very right-hand side.

There is no need to select the image using the selector box to the left.

Be sure your want to archive any or all images. The process is irreversible.

Hover the mouse over the picture icon (3 above) to see an image thumbnail:

Click the image to display details in the Information Panel.

Display More than One Collection

So far we have been displaying one Collection in the Image Gallery. To display more than one Collection, it is simply a case of selecting the other Collection(s) from the Browse Workspaces Panel:
