Feedback from Ron 08/24/11

in general: Ron is pleased with the top-level things
text display in viewers does not work for Ron
- 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: 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
    - should be the way to go for the bottom left of Slicer GUI
- possible solutions: we assign names (F1,F2,F3 for Fiducials, M1,M2,M3 for measurements, R1,R2... B1,B2) and descriptions
  - name appears in viewers
  - description in bottom lower left
    - on roll-over in viewers, show description in bottom left: display only
  - in annotation module: full details
get rid of text annotation
get rid of bidimensional annotation
just three types: fiducials, measurements (ruler), ROIs
- ROI needs a name in the future: requires infrastructure change -> in the future
for RSNA: name+description in bottom lower left, anything else should be deferred
