Getting started
Reading data
When VuENSDF is launched, it displays an empty screen, and most menus are disabled.
If you have ENSDF files stored locally, you may open them with File,
Open local file... on the Menu bar,
and the level scheme of the first data set in the file will be displayed on the screen.
Alternatively you may select nuclide clicking the Nucleus button.
Depending on the setting in the
Configuration menu, the program will then look for the data on the local disk or
transfer them via the Internet. The latter obviously requires an
active connection to the Internet.
VuENSDF has many options to change the way the data are displayed. You
may select smaller sets of the
data, e.g. rotational bands (Data, Band...), or you may elect
to see the data in a table form (AddView..., Table).
The Edit mode is, at present, mostly a debugging tool.
