Feedback from Ron 08/24/11
- in general: Ron is pleased with the top-level things
The Text Dilemma
- problem: annotations are obstructing the images: this should NOT be the case
- fonts ugly
- text gets in the way of things you want to see
- different direction needed: show information in left bottom corner
- two kinds of information
- software wants to show information (push)
- user requests information (pull)
- in viewers: minimal information
- in bottom left corner of Slicer GUI: medium details
- somewhere else (in the annotation module): full details
- cdash example: way of not to do it -> important information is covered by annotations
- ohloh example: good example -> first minimal, then under cursor more details when probing
- two kinds of information
Possible Solution
- assign names (F1,F2,F3 for Fiducials, M1,M2,M3 for measurements, R1,R2 for ROI... ) and descriptions
- name appears in viewers
- description in bottom lower left on roll-over in viewers
- in annotation module: full details
General Changes (Target for RSNA release)
- take everything out which does not work properly (except for critical functionality)
Targeting the Text Dilemma
- name+description in bottom lower left, in viewers only name
- possible problem: mouse over event on vtk widgets might not be easily realizable
Slim down the Annotation Module
- get rid of text annotation
- get rid of bidimensional annotation
- just three annotation types: fiducials, measurements (ruler), ROIs
vtkWidget Changes
- ruler: ticks only in 2D but centimeters
- handles for all annotations zooming behavior: should be like Slicer3
- ROI needs a name in the future: requires infrastructure change (maybe not for RSNA)
Qt GUI Changes
- sliders in fiducial properties jumps weird: should have dynamic range or 0..20 for the beginning
- size presets: medium is actual size, small and large presets
- property linking between elements of widgets so that the user has to change colors at one location
- hotspot icons for ruler placement: new icons on wendy's todo list
- second eye should be removed in tree view
- remove Create Panel
- replace by toolbar
- view transform in the toolbar: should be cancel
- add a key (maybe ctrl) to have it pause mode
- screenshots and sceneviews go into toolbar
- take out advanced panel
MRML Changes
- changes related to linking properties
- fiducial list, so that saving many fiducials do not creates so many files
