Objective

Approach, Plan

Progress

  • Make the mouse mode (action invoked on left mouse button) explicit
  • Set mouse cursor icon according to current mouse mode
  • Changing mouse modes will be possible using a selector control on the upper toolbar
  • When a mouse mode is active, the one-time actions (add fiducial etc.) are still available
  • Mouse modes
    • 'Null' mode - no action in slice viewers, rotation only in 3D viewer - default mouse mode
    • Window/Level mode - W/L in slice viewers, rotation in 3D viewer
    • Selection mode?
    • Transform mode?

Delivery Mechanism

This work will be delivered to the NA-MIC Kit as changes in the Slicer4 core.
