A quick tour of the screen.

After you sign in, Echo’s main window has a few fixed areas. Knowing where things live makes the rest of this guide easier to follow.

Open views sidebar

On the left, Open views lists every study viewer you currently have open. Click a row to switch; use the X to close. See Open views.

You can hide or show the sidebar with the sidebar toggle, and drag the divider to resize it.

Main content area

This is where the Study List, Search, History, Settings, or an open study viewer appears.

Status bar
