The following options are available on the Image Editor Toolbox overlay:

Database Management Option

The database management option allows you to add new files or maintain existing ones without leaving the image editor. See Chapter 3-3, Process Definition for additional information.

Rules Option

The rules option calls an Event Points overlay which provides options that allow you to access the ILF Editor for applicable event points. If statements exist in an event point, the event point option is highlighted. Refer to the Image Editor Toolbox Rules Option section as well as Chapter 3-16: Using Event Points for more information.

Optional Processes Option

This option accesses the Optional Child Processes specification screen for the current image. These specifications include the name of the child process, the invocation type, and whether or not various activities at the child level affect the parent process.

Upon completion, you are returned to the image editor. See Chapter 3-13: Automatic and Optional Children for detailed information on defining optional child processes.
