<!-- Objective bullet points -->
* Slicer lacks interactive support for moving, rotating and scaling objects in the user interface. It would be nice to be able to interact directly with an object.
* The main objective of this project would be to allow user to change a transform parameters with through interaction. The objects under that transform should be automatically updated accordingly and the interaction representation should always match the transform properties.
* We would also like to explore adding new markup types in Slicer such as planes and paths. Those would be integrated using the infrastructure in place.
|
<!-- Approach and Plan bullet points -->
* Add a translation widget which:
** Allows the user to move the objects under a transform.
** Updates the transform interactively.
** Updates itself whenever the transform is changed.
** At this point, we would ask for feedback to the community. 
* Explore the addition of a simple markup type like a plane.
