Clicking on a specific document found here will open up that image on your WebChart screen. When you click the grayed out printer icon displayed alongside the image, it will automatically batch the image at the top of the screen where you can print or burn to a CD. Additionally, the printer icon located near the image will change colors to denote you have selected to print or burn this image.

The Series [+] button if clicked will open all images for that series on your screen under one another.  Otherwise, you can leave it as is and use the Prev or Next buttons below it to advance through the series of images tied to this document.

The enhanced viewer doesn’t offer the ability to take a view from another doc.id (document) and compare it to a view from a different/separate doc.id (document).

To hang views side by side, they must be in the same series/same document.  You can click the down-arrow to select standard hang options or you can click the [C] button to get to a custom protocol hang option.

An example to see a hang is to search for doc.id 316 in your system (a sample image series in your WebChart system).  To hang images, the document must have more than 1 series.
