Page display

The right-hand side of the Metadata Editor gives you an overview of the individual digital images that form part of the current process together with the number of pages, the current magnification level, the currently displayed image number and information about which derivative of the available digitised material you are currently viewing.

Page navigation

You can move between individual pages using the Forward and Previous links just above the image. You can also move quickly to the previous and next images by selecting them directly.

The current page is shown in the middle of the page range with the previous and next two pages on each side (provided they are available for display). Clicking on any of the pages will take you directly to the corresponding scanned image. Goobi also features a number of keyboard combinations for repeated navigation between different pages of the source material.

Keyboard combination for navigating between images in the Metadata Editor

Keyboard combination	Description of function
Ctrl + Shift + Cursor left	Move to previous image
Ctrl + Shift + Cursor right	Move to next image
Ctrl + Shift + Cursor up	Move 20 images forward
Ctrl + Shift + Cursor down	Move 20 images back
Ctrl + Shift + Pos 1	Move to first image
Ctrl + Shift + End	Move to last image

Using these keyboard combinations allows you to move quickly and easily through the digitised material, even over large areas. Another navigation option allows you to move directly to a specific image by entering that image number in the Go to image box and pressing return. Goobi will then automatically display the requested image.

Zoom

In addition to all the above navigation options, you can also change the way Goobi displays the scanned image. To do so, just click on either magnifying glass symbol below the page navigation bar to increase or reduce the magnification/zoom level. The current magnification is shown between the two magnifying glass symbols. If you want to select a particular level of zoom, simply click between the two magnifying glass symbols, enter a figure and press the Enter key to confirm.

Manually entering the required zoom level

Rotation

Goobi also allows you to rotate the image in 90 degree stages to view information that can only be read in landscape format. To do so, just click on the arrow pointing to the right to rotate the image clockwise and on the arrow pointing left to rotate the image anti-clockwise.

Selecting the image folder

Underneath the image you will find an option to select from different derivatives of the image (where available). In the drop-down list entitled Folder, Goobi lists all the image folders linked to the currently selected process. For example, if you already have a number of derivative images for a specific process (e.g. master images, scaled or compressed versions of images or derivatives with a different tone such as bitonal images), you can switch between these derivative images simply by selecting the corresponding folder.
