Image Organizer

The Image Organizer is divided into three sections (tabs):

Images

Displays the location and status of each of the images that are open in the current tracing window and contains several features for manipulating the appearance of the images. It doesn't apply to markers or tracings.

The images are listed in the order in which they were opened. The most recent image is listed at the top and appears in front of the other images where they overlap.
