    5757 * '''[Open]''': gives access to the browser for the main input field.
    58    * '''[browse...]''': open a general file browser ''browser_uvmat''. In the displayed list, a file can be selected for opening  (by a single mouse click),or directories are marqued by '+/'.  Select the first line '+/..' to move up in the directory tree, and the arrow <-- to move backward. The dates of file creation can be displayed by pressing the button '''[dates]'''. file ordering by name or date can be chosen by the popumenu above. A path can be directly entered by copy-paste in the upper edit window of the browser.

    5959   * Previously opened files are memorised in the menu where they can be selected again.

    7575 * '''[Run] ''':
    7676   * '''[field series]''': gives access to the GUI [#a10-Processingfieldseries "''series.fig''"] for processing field series.
    77    * ''' PIV''' : gives access to the PIV program under Matlab (using the GUI '''series.fig''').
     77   * ''' [PIV'''] : gives access to the PIV program under Matlab (using the GUI '''series.fig''').
    7878   * '''[CivX(Fortran)]''':  gives access to the GUI [#a11-PIV:ParticleImagingVelocimetry "''civ.fig''"] for Particle Imaging Velocimetry (CivX version in Fortran).

    8383After selection by the browser, the path and file names are determined. The path is split into the two first edit boxes '''[!RootPath]''' and '''[!SubDir],''' while the file name is split into a root name '''[!RootFile]''', file index string '''[!FileIndex]''', and file extension '''[!FileExt]'''. The input file name can be directly entered and modified in these edit boxes, without the browser.
    8484
    85 Once a root name has been introduced, navigation among  the file indices is provided by the red push buttons '''[runplus]''' ( '''[+>]''')  and   '''[runmin] ''' ('''[<-]'''). The central push button '''[run0]''' ('''[!0]''') refreshes the current plot. See [#a3.4Navigationamongfieldindices section 3.4] for more details.
    86 
    87 When available, the time of each frame or field is displayed in the edit box '''[!TimeValue]''', at the very right. In the case of image pairs, the time interval Dt is displayed between the edit boxes '''[i1], [j1]''' and '''[i2], [j2]'''. This timing information can be read directly in the input file, in the case of movies or NetCDF files, or can be defined in a XML documentation file, see [#a3.5Imagedocumentationfiles.xml section 3.5] (in case of conflict, the latter prevails).

     87When available, the time of each frame or field is displayed in the edit box '''[!TimeValue]''', at the upper right corner. In the case of image pairs, the time interval Dt is displayed between the edit boxes '''[i1], [j1]''' and '''[i2], [j2]'''. This timing information can be read directly in the input file, in the case of movies or NetCDF files, or can be defined in a XML documentation file, see [#a3.5Imagedocumentationfiles.xml section 3.5] (in case of conflict, the latter prevails).

    8989'''Note: ''' the five last input file names, as well as other pieces of personal information, are stored for convenience in a file (''uvmat_perso.mat'') automatically created in the user preference directory of Matlab (indicated by the Matlab command '>>prefdir'. Browsers then  read default input in this file. A corruption of this file ''uvmat_perso.mat'' may lead to problems for opening UVMAT, type '>>reinit' on the Matlab prompt to delete it and reinitialise the configuration of UVMAT.
     
    164164 * '''<Camera>''' contains information on the camera settings, as well as the timing of all the images in a subsection <!BurstTiming>.
    165165 * '''<!TranslationMotor>''' and '''<Oscillator>''' contains information on the mechanical devices used to produce the laser sheet and scan volumes.
    166  * '''<!GeometryCalib>''' contains the parameters of the geometric calibration relating the pixel position to the real space coordinates (see [#a8-Geometriccalibration section 8]]). In the case of volume scanning, it also describes the set of laser plane positions and angles.

    167167 * '''<Illumination>''' describes the illumination system used, including the position of the laser source.
    168168 * '''<Tracor>''' describes the properties of the flow tracor (particle, dye...).
     
    183183 * '''.fig''' Matlab figures represent plots but also Graphic User Interfaces (GUI). In that case Matlab functions (callbacks) are attached to the graphic objects in the figure and can be activated by the mouse. Matlab figures can be directly opened by the browser of '''uvmat.fig'''.
    184184
    185  * ''''.civ' ''' (obsolete)  ASCII text file containing the list of image times and the scaling in pixels/cm. This is an obsolete version of the XML image documentation file. It is stored in the same directory as the corresponding series of images, with name ''root .civ''. It is automatically sought by '''uvmat.fig''' and '''series.fig''', in the absence of an XML file <!ImaDoc>. (it is read by the function ''read_imatext.m''). The following example is from an experience with 19 bursts of 4 images, named aa001a,aa001b,aa001c,aa001d,aa002a,aa002b,...,aa019c,aa019d, with an extension .png. The corresponding .civ file is named aa.civ. Comments (not included in the file) are indicated with %...

    691691 * '''[Display Config] ''': exports on the Matlab work space all the data stored in the GUI, in the form of a Matlab structure.
    692692
    693  * '''[Inport Config] ''': reads the XML configuration file of a previous computation (plced in a subfolder /0_XML), and fills the GUI with its content, so the calculation can be repeated.
     693 * '''[Inport Config] ''': reads the XML configuration file of a previous computation (placed in a subfolder /0_XML), and fills the GUI with its content, so the calculation can be repeated.
    694694
    695695 * '''[Inport Param] ''': does the same as '''[Inport Config] '''but without refreshing the input file table and indices. This is useful to repeat a previous calculation for a new series, keeping the same parameters (not however that some processing parameters may be inconsistent with the current input files, so it is less reliable than''' [Inport Config].'''
     
    768768PIV can be performed by selecting the Matlab function ''civ_series'' as '''[!ActionName]''' in the GUI '''series.fig''': then the '''GUI civ_input''' appears to enter the processing parameters. An image file series must have been entered as input of '''series.fig''', or alternatively a Netcdf file resulting form a previous PIV processing (with conventions '''civdata''').
    769769
    770 An alternative possibility is to use the older Fortran program ''CivX'' from the GUI '''civ.fig'''. This can be called directly on the Matlab prompt, by typing  ''>>civ'', or from UVMAT by the menu bar command '''[RUN/PIV (old civ)]'''.    ''''''
