+
+\tableofcontents
+
+\section org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_F1Help General remark on F1 help
+	This is the help window of the MxN display. To display the help windows of other plugins, press F1 when the plugin of interest is active
+	(please make sure the tab of the plugin of interest is highlighted).
+	Alternatively, go to the <i>Help</i> menu and select <i>Open Help Perspective</i>. A help window opens from which you can select the documentation of the plugin of interest.
+
+\section org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Overview Overview
+	The MxN display is an alternative image viewer to the Standard display.
+	It is a more flexible, customizable approach to displaying images with a strong focus on displaying different images
+	simultaneously but independently.
+	Unlike than the Standard Display it allows to show a different image for each window view while also allowing independent image navigation.
+	The number of window views can be freely chosen and anatomical view planes / view directions can be changed for each window view.
+
+\section org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Working Working with the MxN display
+	The following sections describe how to work with the MxN display. The MxN display can be customized and several
+	properties can be set to modify the behavior.
+
+\subsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Configuration Configuration Toolbar
+	The MxNDisplay is initialized with a single window view and a configuration toolbar on the right side.
+	In the toolbar you can find three icons / actions, where two buttons have an on/off state.
+	<table style="border: none;">
+		<tr><td>\imageMacro{QtWidgets/resource/mwLayout.png, "Layout button", 16.00}
+		<tr><td>\imageMacro{QtWidgets/resource/mwSynchronized.png, "Synchronize button", 16.00}
+			<td>\imageMacro{QtWidgets/resource/mwDesynchronized.png, "Desynchronize button", 16.00}
+		<tr><td>\imageMacro{QtWidgets/resource/mwMITK.png, "MITK mode button", 16.00}
+			<td>\imageMacro{QtWidgets/resource/mwPACS.png, "PACS mode button", 16.00}
+	</table>
+
+	<ul>
+		<li> Layout button: Choose a layout from presets or select a custom number of available window views and their layout in a grid
+		<li> Synchronization button: Enable or disable synchronized interaction across the window views
+		<li> Interaction mode button: Switch between the MITK interaction mouse mode and the PACS interation mouse mode
+	</ul>
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Layout MxN display layout
+	There are several options to customize the MxN display layout.
+
+	Using the layout button from the configuration toolbar allows to customize the layout the following way:
+	<ul>
+		<li> By choosing the desired amount of windows and confirming via "Set multi widget layout". The window views are arranged in a rectangular grid, as specified.
+			Depending on the selected number of window views, existing window views will be removed or additional window views will be added.
+			New window views will have a sagittal view direction. Window views that stay untouched will keep their settings and continue displaying their selected data.
+		<li> By selecting one of the provided layout presets.
+		<li> By saving / loading a custom layout, either created using the previous methods and further refinement or by handcrafting a suitable file.
+	</ul>
+
+	\imageMacro{layoutWidget.png, "Layout widget" , 16.00}
+
+	By moving the cursor to the upper right corner of any window you can activate the window menu. It consists of three buttons:
+	<ul>
+		<li> The crosshair button allows to toggle the crosshair and to reset the view.
+		<li> The middle button expands the corresponding window to fullscreen.
+		<li> The right button allows you to choose between many different arrangements of the available windows.
+	</ul>
+
+	\imageMacro{layoutArrangements.png, "Layout arrangement", 16.00}
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Synchronization Window synchronization
+	If data is displayed inside a window view you can interact with the window / loaded image using your mouse.
+	As long as the interaction synchronization is disabled (<img src="mwDesynchronized.png">), mouse interactions,
+	such as zooming, setting the point of interest, mouse wheel scrolling etc. will affect only the window view you click in.
+	If the interaction synchronization is enabled (<img src="mwSynchronized.png">), performing any of the mouse interactions inside a window view
+	will perform the same interaction in any other visible window view.
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Interaction_Mode Mouse interaction mode
+	As mentioned before, you can use the mouse to interact with each window / loaded image.
+	There are two interaction modes which can be switched between using the interaction mode button:
+	the MITK interaction mouse mode and the PACS interaction mouse mode.
+	If the PACS interaction mouse mode is selected, an interaction tool bar is added to the left side of the
+	MxN display: It allows to select the action to perform for the left mouse button.
+	The difference between the MITK and PACS mode is as follows:
+
+	MITK interaction mouse mode <img src="mwMITK.png">
+	<ul>
+		<li> left mouse button: setting the point of interest
+		<li> right mouse button: zooming in and out while moving the mouse
+		<li> middle mouse button / pressing mouse wheel: moving the image while moving the mouse
+		<li> mouse wheel: scrolling through the displayed image slices
+	</ul>
+
+	PACS interaction mouse mode <img src="mwPACS.png">
+	<ul>
+		<li> left mouse button: depending on the selected mode in the interaction tool bar
+		<li> right mouse button: changing the level window for the topmost visible image under the mouse cursor
+		<li> middle mouse button / clicking mouse wheel: no interaction
+		<li> mouse wheel: scrolling through the displayed image slices
+		<li> strg-key + right mouse button: zooming in and out while moving the mouse
+	<li> shif-key + right mouse button: moving the image while moving the mouse
+	</ul>
+
+\subsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Utility Utility Menu
+	Each window view has a utility menu at the top with four UI elements that allow to perform the following actions:
+	<ul>
+		<li> Data selection button: Select which data should be selected and visible inside the window view
+		<li> Lock / unlock button: Set the lock state of a window to couple / decouple the window from other windows.
+		<li> Slice slider: Navigate along the view direction of this window
+		<li> View direction drop down menu: Select the current anatomical view plane / view direction
+	</ul>
+
+	\imageMacro{utilityMenu.png, "Utility menu", 8.00}
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Data_Selection Data node selection
+	Using the data selection button of a window view you can open a data node selection dialog which shows the currently
+	selected data nodes for the window view.
+	"Currently selected" means that you can either decide to show all available data nodes from the data storage
+	or - for a better data node overview - only show an individually selected subset of the available data nodes.
+	You can either remove a node from the selection by clicking the "x" on a data node or use the "Change selection"
+	button to individually select data nodes.
+	The "Select all nodes" checkbox denotes which of the selection types is currently used - showing all available data nodes
+	or showing only a subset of data nodes. Checking the checkbox will reset the selection to all available data nodes.
+	
+	Selecting data nodes does not mean that this node always has to be visible in the window view (rendered). If you want to hide
+	a node, e.g. for temporarily inspecting underlying images, you can do so by clicking the "eye" icon for each selected data node.
+	
+	If you want to reset the window view to a specific node / image, you can use the "arrow" icon. This will reset the camera to focus
+	on the selected node, using default zoom and centered camera position.
+	If you want so reset the camera to focus on the whole scene / all selected nodes, you can use the window menu, see
+	\ref org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Layout.
+	Resetting a window only affects the corresponding window view, regardless of any synchronization / lock state.
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Lock_Button Lock button
+	So far showing / hiding nodes or removing them from a selection / changing a selection affected all window views.
+	If you want to use individual selections for a window view, you can unlock / decouple the window view from other window views
+	by clicking on the lock button in the utility menu.
+	This will decouple the current window view. Changing the visibility of a node or selecting individual nodes / removing nodes
+	using the data node selection button will affect only the current window view.
+	This allows to show different images in each window view, e.g. by decoupling multiple window views and selecting individual nodes
+	in each window.
+	It is still possible to have a synchronized mouse interaction, see \ref org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Synchronization and
+	\ref org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Interaction_Mode.
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_Slice_Slider Slice selection slider
+	Displayed data is typically 3D data but each window view shows a 2D slice of the 3D volume. The direction in which the
+	3D volume is sliced is defined by the "view direction" (or "anatomical plane").
+	To define at which position in the view direction the 3D volume should be sliced, the slice selection slider can be used.
+	It can either be moved using the mouse or by using the appropriate mouse interaction (see above, e.g. mouse wheel scroling).
+
+\subsubsection org_mitk_editors_mxnmultiwidget_View_Direction View direction
+	Each window view "is looking in" one of the three avaiable view directions, namely "Axial", "Sagittal" or "Coronal".
+	You can change the view direction by switching to another anatomical plane in the view direction drop down menu.
+	Changing the view direction will reset the camera to its default for the new view direction, meaning default zoom and
+	centered camera position.
