Figure 3.12 Bookmarks View

The Bookmarks widget is where the user can bookmark any Pipelines that they have saved on the file system for later use. Double-clicking on a bookmark will open the bookmark in a new DREAM3D-NX window. Dragging a bookmark into an existing pipeline will insert all the filters from the pipeline at the drop location within the pipeline.

Prebuilt and example pipelines are already included in the bookmarks widget by default; these pipelines show users how to execute common workflows such as importing ASCII data, STL models, and ANG and CTF datasets, executing external processes, utilizing the Array Calculator filter, and generating IPF colors for datasets. There are also more simplnx workflows included, such as reconstructing and running statistics on the SmallIN100 EBSD dataset.
