View source for 2006 Project Week MIT Migrating Slicer2.x Modules to Slicer3

== Abstract ==

Integrate Slicer 2 modules into Slicer 3.

== Discussion ==

This project is closely tied in with [https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Slicer:Slicer2_Porting_to_VTK5 Porting Slicer to VTK5].

Nicole's focus will be porting the Model Maker module from Slicer 2.7 to Slicer 3.0.

Will work in conjunction with [[NA-MIC/Projects/Slicer3_for_IGT/Converting_vtkFMRIEngine_and_vtkMRAblation_to_Slicer3_modules|Slicer 3 for IGT Conversion]].

By the end of the week:

Porting to VTK5:

* [[User:Mathieu/Week|Week end report]]

Model Maker:

* created a stand alone executable that can be called from Slicer 3
* adjusted the initial UI xml file a little to accomodate changed decimation parameter
* converted Slicer 2.7 TCL code that accessed VTK 4.x classes to C++ code that uses VTK 5.0 classes
* verified model creation:
** create the model in Slicer 3 from a NRRD file
** load same NRRD file in Slicer 2 and create a model
** load Slicer 3 model into Slicer 2 and verify orientation and scale
* TBD: loading and display of models in Slicer 3
