Peruse Configuration

  Home > Peruse

 The Peruse tab contains the configuration options for the CM4D Peruse web application, including Annotation Templates, Annotation Sets, Drilldowns, Layouts, Reports, Scores, Sieves and Styles.

Annotation Templates

Annotation Templates are CM4D annotation exported as a template file from CM4D Classic to be used for configuring components used by CM4D Peruse. Once uploaded as a Annotation Template in CM4D Configuration, it can be used to define Annotation Sets and/or Reports for Peruse.

See the topic Peruse Annotation Templates Configuration for details.

Annotation Sets

Annotation Sets are predefined designs for the annotations in CM4D Peruse that are used for Annotation displayed in the 3D viewer (Feature Marker) and in Layouts around the 3D Viewer (Layouts Menu). The sets are configured by CM4D Admins to provide optimal displays of information for the Feature type displayed. Each set can use the same template or it can use a different templates or styles designed specifically for a certain Feature type, so depending on the characteristic displayed you may see a different annotation style.

See the topic Peruse Annotation Sets Configuration for details.

Styles

Styles are the visual traits of annotation, such as color, font, line width, etc. You can either export styles from CM4D Classic to import in the CM4D Config plugin, or you can create new styles directly in the CM4D plugin. In CM4D Peruse, these styles are used by Annotation Templates, where the styles are applied to annotation in order to use common attributes throughout reports.

See the topic Peruse Styles Configuration for details.

Scores

Scores divide data into bins. These bins include a Start bin and then all other bins collect the remaining values according to rules defined in CM4D. These scores are used by CM4D to apply styles to annotation or to display data in graphs. In CM4D Peruse, Scores are used by some Annotation Templates. Scores can either be exported from CM4D Classic and then imported into the CM4D Config plugin, or new scores can be created directly in the CM4D plugin. When importing a Annotation Template that uses scores, you must upload/create the relevant scores before uploading the annotation template. Scores may also used for conditional formatting defined in Styles.

See the topic Peruse Scores Configuration for details.

Sieves

Sieves are predefined filters for selecting the feature types and characteristics to be displayed in the 3D view, grids and reports in CM4D Peruse. Sieve definitions include feature type, characteristics per feature type and characteristic deviation type (absolute or actual values, vector deviation or car deviation). If no sieve is selected, all available processes are loaded.

See the topic Peruse Sieves Configuration for details.

Reports

Reports are the charts or graphs that display information about selected data in the Report Panel of CM4D Peruse.

See the topic Peruse Report Configuration for details.
