Drag and Drop from Series Picker to Viewport

When you drag and drop a series from the Series Picker into a viewport, the viewport displays the first image of the series. The magnification of the series that you drag and drop into a viewport could be affected by the magnification of the series originally in the viewport. The following can affect the magnification:

  • Modality type
  • Orientation
  • Frame of Reference (FOR)
  • Link Zoom and Pan status
