Several different module developers have asked  to insert and operate with VTK-style 3D widgets in the Slicer 3D view window.  This project will study the implications of different ways to insert 3D widgets and how the design of VTK 3D widgets can best interact with Slicer's MRML tree.  Widget interaction may require an extension to the MRML observer paradigm.

Objective

The Slicer3 infrastructure is being extended to support Unstructured Grid datatypes for meshing processes, and the functions from the Univ. of Iowa workflow are being incorporated incrementally during the course of this project.

Approach, Plan

Unstructured grid node types are now supported in MRML. The external collaboration for Finite Element meshing is creating subclasses of these MRML nodes to store bounding box and FE mesh data. This work is a continuation of this project:
