Finding Orphan Images with Image Cleanup

 

The Image Cleanup utility searches Rock Maker’s image stores and finds images that do not have an associated experiment. This allows you to reclaim space that has been occupied by unnecessary images. This utility will search completed plates' data and inform you of the amount of space being used by it.

You can execute Image Cleanup by clicking the Find Orphan Images button on the Application Menu button.

    Various information is displayed about each image store, including plate IDs, approximate imaging date, creation date, and size in kilobytes.
  2. Select an image store from the Results table and click Move to Archive Folder at the bottom of the Image Cleanup dialog box. The image store is placed in the archive folder.
