Step-by-step guide
1. Click Analysis > Workflow Processor or run the Workflow Processor command from the search bar to launch the Workflow Processor dialog.
2. Aivia comes with a basic image conversion workflow. To load it, click on the arrow on the right edge of the Load Workflow button and choose the Reload System Workflows option. A workflow called “Convert_To_Aivia_Format” should appear in the dialog.
3. If you are converting images made up of one file per image and do not need to add calibration during conversion, skip to step 8. Otherwise, click on the Editor tab in the right section of the Workflow Processor dialog.
4. Along the top of the Workflow Processor, click Format.
5. If you would like to calibrate the images when they are converted, check the Calibration box and enter the calibration information.
6. If you are converting image sequences (for example, importing a series of 2D z-frame images into a single 3D image), choose the Single from Many option. Otherwise, if you have one file per image, leave the Standalone Images option selected.
7. Once your formatting options have been chosen, click Run. This takes you to the Runner section of the Workflow Processor.
8. In the File Input section, click the Add File(s) button. Navigate to the files you would like to convert, select them, and then click Open.
9. In the Saving section of the Runner, click Browse, navigate to the desired output location, and then click Select Folder.
10. For the Additional Save Options, ensure Save Field is checked.
11. Click Run Job(s). The Workflow Processor will automatically display the Queue, where you can monitor which image is being converted and which images are still in line for conversion.
12. When processing has completed, you can find the converted Aivia TIFF files in the specified output folder. The files are now in Aivia's high performance TIFF format, and you can load and view the images in 3D in less than five seconds.
