General Directions

On the tool's first "Stack Camera" page the user can indicate the stack size and whether or not the stack rotates. 

If the Stack rotates option is selected it will take the last images received and use those as the number of images set. For example if the stack size is set to 20 and 25 images were taken the Stack Rotates option will allow the tool to keep only the last 20 images taken. If the stack rotates is not selected the stack size will be the same as the amount of images captured. 

The user can scroll through the images using the arrows located clicking on an images place this into the viewer.
