45. Render - Insight
To test in: Insight
Purpose of the test is to make sure rendering is smooth and changes are applied consistently to all visualisations of the images and all the options of rendering are functional.
Note: For all copy and paste tests, the copied settings must be pasted to a Dataset of Images/Image or Plate/Well that has the same pixel type and number of channels as the image the settings were copied from. It is suggested that changes made to settings for test purposes are obvious and easily recognisable.

Make sure you have images in “Orphaned Images” folder (get them via CLI import or do Cut command).
Repeat steps 1. - 6. working on orphaned images.
Repeat the steps 1. - 6. with Big Images (Find suitable images here [
TestingSet
] or here [TestingTemplate
]). Preview is NOT available for Big images.
45.2. Render - copying / resetting
Paste settings with the Full viewer open.
Make sure you have 2 identical images next to each other (you can quickly import the
test_images_good/dv/CFPNEAT01_R3D.dv
image 2x).Let us call the images
image-1
andimage-2
.Open
image-1
in the Full Viewer, switch off a channel and Save (icon in the top row in the Full Viewer ).Do not close the Full Viewer of
image-1
.In the Data Manager (= the main pane of OMERO.insight) select the thumbnail of
image-2
and copy the rendering settings.Select the thumbnail of
image-1
and paste the rendering settings.Check that both the thumbnail as well as the Full Viewer of
image-1
have the new settings now.Close the Full Viewer of
image-1
.Check that no
Save
dialog is displayed.Re-open the
image-1
in the Full Viewer.Select the thumbnail of
image-1
and paste the rendering settings.In the Full Viewer, switch off a channel again and DO NOT save.
Close the Full Viewer of
image-1
.Check that the
Save
dialog appears.Select
Yes
to save the new rendering settings.Check that the thumbnail of image-1 has updated in the centre pane and in the viewer and User Settings in Preview.
Re-open
image-1
.Check that the rendering settings are as saved last time and the Full Viewer and thumbnail in the centre pane and in the viewer and User Settings in Preview correspond.
Reset imported settings [Render003].
Check that thumbnails in the central pane are updated.

45.3. Other users’ data
Other users’ data - basic.

Modify the settings in the
Preview
pane on the right [Render005] or use the icon on the top left in theFull Viewer

icon in Preview orSave
icon inFull Viewer
(top row ofFull Viewer
).Check that thumbnails in the central pane are updated.
Use
Save to all
button.Check that all thumbnails in a Dataset or all wells in a Plate Run are updated.
Other users’ data - Owner’s settings.
Import at least 2 multi-t and multi-z images as a user (e.g. user-4) in Read-Only group.
Go to the imported images and modify the Rendering settings in such a way that you can recognize these settings easily later.
Log out and Log in as an Owner of Read-Only group (e.g. user-3).
View the images you just imported as another user (e.g. user-3 viewing user-4’s images).
Check that, still as a default you can see the Rendering settings you just saved as the owner of the image (for example user-4).
Check that when you change Rendering settings and click
