Matching Plant Images Internally

[merrimacga]

It would be good to add two columns to the spreadsheet, one for each side of the match such as "f90r" and "f90v[1, 1]" as that information is very useful for linking rows up and then if we can all fill those in that would help.(This information is useful also for performing an "Inner Join" on the spreadsheet as we may sometimes have two [or more?] separate matches between the Herbal plant and the small botanical plants and we might want to link them all together such as a match for the root and a match for the leaf.)

My match number "80" isn't very clear as a large part of the herbal drawing is covered, so it is probably best to refer to the original illustration.

I have added a new column C (VN Folio Browser) to You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. so links can be added to the specific images comparison in this site's Folio Browser.

To access, hover over the link in the spreadsheet then left click on the Folio Browser link in the pop up message. The specific Folio Browser comparison will then open in a new tab or new window, depending on your browser settings.

To add a link in the spreadsheet, first access the Folio Browser and then select the left and right folios to be compared and then select and copy the page URL. Then, in the spreadsheet, type the text (e.g. f48v vs f89v2 for Mark's number 9) in the column C cell, then click Enter to exit the cell. Then re-select the cell and click CTRL+K to open the pop up for adding the link. Paste the link you copied in the field in the pop up and then click the Apply link. The pop will then close. Click another cell to exit the one you edited and then the link can be accessed.

I have started adding some of the links but it will take awhile to complete. I suggest we keep columns A and B for the individual folio numbers, especially since column B also includes references to the specific small plant images in the folio. With the addition of column C, I thought it might be a good idea to freeze panes so we can scroll to the right without losing visibility on columns A-D.
