| + | <big>'''Note:''' We are migrating this content to the slicer.org domain - <font color="orange">The newer page is [https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Slicer3:Slicer3_Alpha_Release_Notes here]</font></big> |

− | Slicer 3 has many new features! The list here highlights most major some new features in Slicer 3. Please also note that many of these new features are still being developed and will be improved in future releases, so you may encounter some unexpected behavior. If you do encounter unexpected behavior, you can join the Slicer Users's mailing by sending email to slicer-users-request@massmail.spl.harvard.edu with the subject "subscribe", and report the behavior there to see if there is a work around (or check the [http://massmail.spl.harvard.edu/pipermail/slicer-users/ archives]), and to the [http://www.na-mic.org/Bug bug tracker] if it needs to be solved by the developers.

− | == Known Issues: Base Operations ==
| |
− | | |
− | * All Platforms:
| |
− | ** Slicer3's interface is optimized for screen resolutions equal to or higher than 1280x1024. While it is useable below that resolution, it may become less efficient to utilize the GUI.
| |
− | ** Fonts currently do not resize in Slicer3, making the text hard to read on extremely large monitors with very high resolutions.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | * Linux:
| |
− | ** csh must be installed (it's not on Ubuntu by default).
| |
− | ** the sh shell on some systems is incompatible with the installer (it will work, but with warnings)
| |
− | | |
− | == Known Issues: Modules ==
| |
− | | |
− | As a research platform, Slicer includes several modules that are not yet fully implemented, but which the developers still felt were far enough along in functionality to provide utility for the community. As such, you may find that some operations do not behave as expected, particularly where they interact with other slicer functions. Please let us know about these issues by filing appropriate bug reports.

− | == Building == | |
− | | |
− | You don't have to build Slicer yourself to use it. If you want a precompiled version, go [[Slicer3:Downloads|here.]]
| |
− | | |
− | To build slicer from source, see [[Slicer3:Build_Instructions|Slicer3:Build_Instructions]]
| |
− | | |
− | * Windows
| |
− | ** distributed versions are built with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET in release mode (note that there may be some problems compiling with .NET 2003)
| |
− | | |
− | * Linux
| |
− | ** We are building using g++ version 3.4.3 on RedHat Enterprise Linux 4.
| |
− | | |
− | * Mac OSX
| |
− | ** We are building using gcc version 4.0.1
