# Select the tiltseries for which a tomogram is to be calculated.

# Check the runname and enter a description.

# If your job has been submitted to the cluster, a page will appear with a link "Check status of job", which allows tracking of the job via its log-file. This link is also accessible from the "1 running" option under the "Aliogn tilt series" submenu in the appion sidebar.

# Now click on the "1 Complete" link under the "Align tilt series" submenu. This opens a summary of all tilt series alignment runs that have been completed for this dataset.

# Clicking on the "alignrun id" opens a summary page for the alignment cycles that were run.

# Clicking on the "refine cycle" number opens a report page for that cycle including input parameters and directory paths.  Clicking on "Alignment Movie" opens a new web-browser with a movie of the aligned tilt series.

# The same alignment cycle can be repeated or another initiated.
