Tracing Trees: Endings

To mark the end of a branch, right-click and select Ending. The type of ending applied is displayed in the contextual drop-down menu previously used for tree types.
To select a more suitable ending type, use the drop-down menu.

Normal Ending (N)	Default
High Ending (H)	Ending located at the top of the current section. Depending on the orientation of the sections, the process may continue into another section. Use the Z Meter to determine the Z value of the ending.
Low Ending (L)	Ending located at the bottom of the current section.
Incomplete (I)	Use to label arbitrary endings, endings that disappear for unknown reasons, endings that should be audited later..
Origin Ending (O)	Indicates the directionality of the tree. Use this setting if you have been tracing towards the cell body and find that your "ending" is actually the beginning of the process. Stereo Investigator keeps track of directionality to apply branch orders. See Directionality in Editing Trees for details.
Midpoint (M)	Ending of a long branch that is indeterminate at the time it is placed.

To display endings, use the Options>Display Preferences>Neurons tab and check Show ending labels. Endings are represented by a letter (same color as the branch) that indicates their type: N, H, L, I, O, M.
