To handle referentials (i.e. coordinate systems), Anatomist uses colors to make them visually identifiable. Each loaded object into Anatomist is labelled with a referential (color disk on the right of object). A transformation from one referential to another is symbolized with a link (see in Anatomist: Settings -> Referential window).

When BrainVISA drives Anatomist, objects are loaded with coordinate systems according to the priority as mentioned at paragrah above Referential managed by BrainVISA. However if the same object is loaded manually in Anatomist (and not through BrainVISA), then it will be located in a default referential. Thus, coordinate systems can be different (in other hand color disks are different) and you may end up with incoherent displays (the cursor is not in the same place in the same volume).

NOTE: to change the referential of an object -> Right click on the object -> Referentials -> Load. The handling of referential will be detailed in the Anatomist handbook.
