Delta Tips: File Browser (Part 1)

How to use File Browser

1. How to open data with desired data processors and viewers

When a data file is double-clicked in the File Browser window, an appropriate tool is automatically selected. For example, a 1D FID data file opens in the 1D Processor window, while a 1D Fourier-transformed spectrum opens in the Data Slate window. You can open selected data files in the desired tools by clicking appropriate icons (see the figure below).
