2009 Summer Project Week VTK 3D Widgets In Slicer3

Home < 2009 Summer Project Week VTK 3D Widgets In Slicer3
Prototype Measurements module GUI
Key Investigators
- BWH: Nicole Aucoin, Wendy Plesniak
- Kitware: Karthik Krishnan, Sebastien Barre
Objective
To integrate further VTK 3D widgets into Slier.
Approach, Plan
Our approach is to discuss user interaction models, and how the mouse modes can be expanded
Our plan for the project week is to first try out a few sample GUI integrations.
Progress
Before Project Week starts, Nicole hopes to have a prototype of the Fiducials module using the VTK 5.4 vtkSeedWidget that Karthik has updated by her request.
- Prototype Measurement module checked in, builds and loads if Slicer3 is compiled with VTK5.4. Provides a ruler and an angle widget. TODO: bind end points to models.
- Is it possible to add vtkDistanceRepresentation3D to VTK? The ruler is using a 2D representation and the axis is rendering in the focal plane, above models.
- Trying out vtkLineWidget2 with vtkLineRepresentation with the flag DistanceAnnotationVisibilityOn(). Label scales with length of line.
- Can the angle widget label scale on zoom?
- Working on a revamped vtSlicerFiducialListWidget using vtkSeedWidget, so much simpler than the current implementation!
