Can someone tell me where I can find info on the file viewer? I'm interested in the top right box ( I think it's called the histogram ) and what it means ?? Is it like the one in Photoshop ? Should it be important to me ?
Thanks for any help.

See ya, Rod

I've never used file viewer so can't tell you what the box is. If it looks like a histogram, then it probably is a histogram. Histograms are quite useful. They can give you an immediate idea about the exposure of an image although, some images will have a histogram where the graph is biased toward one end of the scale. The following link gives a brief overview, if you need it.
