A navigation tool is a generalized container for any trackable object in combination with it's additional information. Every navigation tool has different properties which are: -Note that not all properties are needed for all types of tools. A tool definition file, for example, is only needed by optical tracking tools (e.g. a .rom file for Polaris or a toolfile for the MicronTracker). A tool associated with the aurora system is alwalys identified by it's serial number. You can also detect Aurora tools automatically with the TrackingToolbox view and edit the automatically detected tool storage later with this view. +Note that not all properties are needed for all types of tools.

If you click "edit" or "delete" the operation is applied on the currently selected tool, as shown in the screenshot below. If you want to create a new storage container, just start adding tools when you start the program and save the storage container. To edit an existing tool storage container click "load" and add/edit/delete tools. +In order to create edit a tool storage container, you can select one of the available tool storages listed in the upper part of the UI. The list shows all tool storages which are available throug the micro services concept of MITK. The list also shows the current tool storage of the IGT tracking toolbox view if it is active. In addition to the listed tool storages, you can load new storages from the hard disc which will then appear in the list and might be edited as all other storage by simply selecting it in the list. You may also save a selected tool storage to the hard disc or create a new one. + +In the lower part of the UI you always see the list of tools of the tool storage which is currently selected in the upper part. Use the buttons "add", "edit" and "delete" to manage the contained navigation tools. If you click "edit" or "delete" the operation is applied on the currently selected tool, as shown in the screenshot below. \image html QmitkIGTTracking_NavigationToolManagemantStartScreen.png "Screenshot of the main view of NavigationToolManagent" \section QmitkMITKIGTNavigationToolManagerAddingEditingNavigationTools Adding / Editing Navigation Tools -If you add or edit a navigation tool, an input mask, as shown in the screenshot below, appears. The tool identifier is filled automatically, if you change it, remember that it is unique in the current storage. Also, choose a valid surface for every tool, this is nessesary for correct tool visualization. The other information depends on the tracking system type. So choose a tool file for the Polaris or the MicronTracker system and type in a serial number for the Aurora system. Two identical tools with the same serial number are also possible, they are assigned by the order in which they are attached to the device. As long as they also have the same surface, this should not be a problem. +If you add or edit a navigation tool, an input mask, as shown in the screenshot below, appears.
