Main Interface
The main interface consists of a centered 3D image surrounded by optional information boxes. By clicking the title of a box you can easily switch between hiding and showing the content.
In the top left corner you find a basic "You are here" diagram of the human body. The part marked with red color represents your current view.
Beneath this map you find a Quick links box which contains links to all the current 3D images and contents.
The Options box allows you to both access this help screen but also to switch between detail levels.
In the Information box you can find a descriptive text of the current 3D image. The colored words in the text correspond to the objects with the same color in the 3D image.
If you just want to look up what all the colored objects represent you can expand the Color key.
3D image
EVA uses a format called QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR) which makes the objects movable. To move the object you click the image with your left mouse button and thereafter hold and drag on the picture in the direction that you wish to move the object. You can also use your up, down, left and right keys on your keyboard to rotate the object. You can move 360 degrees in horizontal direction and 180 degrees in vertical direction.
You can zoom in and zoom out of a panorama by clicking on the
and
buttons in the movie window. You can also zoom in and out with the shift and control keys, on your keyboard, respectively.
When you have zoomed in you can pan in the image in two ways. You can either click the pan button
after which you click and drag, with your left mouse button, the 3D image, or you can click and hold the CTRL and the ALT key on your keyboard, at the same time, while clicking and dragging the 3D image in the same way.
When you are zoomed out you can find a 3D cube in the upper right corner, with letters on each side, which helps you orient yourself within the picture. You also see letters in each side of the picture. The letters are abbreviations for different views. A anterior, I Inferior, L left, P posterior,
R right, S superior
