Strategies for Alignment:

Depth First Strategy Start by aligning the coarsest scale with 'Align All'. Navigate to the "Lowest 8 SNR" panel of the tabbed widget in the tool bar. Start with the lowest SNR alignment. Select 'Manual Align' and then select three matching regions. Do this for each of the 8 worst alignments. Then, select 'Align All' and review the improved alignment. Repeat until the alignment is good.

Breadth First Strategy Start by aligning the coarsest scale with 'Align All'. Navigate to the 'SNR Plot' project tab. Starting from the left, find the first poor SNR data point and click on it to jump to it. Select "Manual Align" in the control panel and proceed to fix the alignment using one of the manual intervention methods. Use the 'Align & Regenerate' function to immediately align and regenerateAll the alignment for that section alone. Repeat until this section is well-aligned. Return to the SNR plot and repeat until each of the poor alignments are fixed with certainty. When this is complete, regenerateAll the entire alignment with the "Regenerate Images" button in the control panel to propagate the cumulative affine.
