Slicer Day October 2008

Back to Events

Likely date: October 7

Location: 1249 Bolyston

Likely attendees: Bob O'Bara, Yumin, Will schroeder

Agenda:

• 3D widgets in slicer
  • Bug fix for the "attention deficit" in the current ones
  • Module panels to accompany 3D widgets: How to duplicate a double oblique?
  • Potential deployment of new 3D widgets in Slicer: e.g. measurement tools (again with matched quantitative panels)
  • other low hanging fruits
• input widget interface behavior: eg. number input in transformation module
• design: create and delete widgets in slicer
  • should be a consistent pattern for creating and positioning a widget in slice viewer or 3D viewer, and deleting or hiding a created widget (see reformat widget currently -- one widget, hidden or exposed).
  • what options do we have to work with?
• design: clear & consistent selection behavior in slicer
  • from user's point of view, what's a widget and what not (fiducials?)
  • all 'selectable' things should behave consistently (what will be good?)
    • how do we communicate 'selectable' on mousover?
    • how do we communicate 'active' once selected?
  • are datasets (like models) selectable?
    • if yes, how can we make their selection behavior consistent with widgets?
