Current GUI

• 

  Large Icons

• 

  Small Icons

• Current GUI (as of Slicer 4.0.1)

Possible Changes

• Move the Module selector from the toolbar to the "Module panel"
  • Motivations
    • Saves horizontal space in the toolbar
    • Visually links the module selector with the module panel
    • Possibility to save some screen real estate
      • By reusing the empty module panel dock title
      • By moving the Slicer logo
    • Allows multiple module panels open at the same time (1 module selector per module panel).

Suggestion

• Suggestion 1 as applied to the Annotation Module
  • 
  • Shouldn't the name of the module appear in the module title bar instead?
  • How about changing the behavior of the module selector pull-down, to show the name of current module by default?

Controlling Linking

• insert into the viewer controller module.
• The module has a pull down with available presets. One of the pull down selection items is create a new preset.
• popup window with a clickable table like in the mock up.
