Key Investigators

  • BWH: Nicole Aucoin, Ron Kikinis
  • Kitware: Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin, Will Schroeder

Objective

To integrate new VTK 3d Widgets into Slicer3/4 and debug existing ones.



Approach, Plan

Our approach is to have a discussion about the plans for the integration of 3d widgets, then work on debugging the current implementation. The main challenge to this approach is adapting the VTK widgets to the Slicer user experience.

Our plan for the project week is to look at:

  • Seed widget cursor changes with Slicer mouse modes
    • Handles calculate Nearby different than the seed widget's NearSeed calculation
    • Turning off ManageCursor on seed representation and handles still results in cursor changing
  • BalloonWidget
    • need a SetBallonText on the balloon representation, that updates the text actor

Progress
