Module: Dual Ortho Slices ()

Description:

This module controls two perpendicular Slices to inspect scalar image data. Two draggers control these slices, one controls the translation, the other one controls the rotation.

Connections:

Data [required]
The scalar image data to be visualized.

Module [required]
The Ortho Slice or Slice that specifies the dragger plane.

Colormap [optional]
Optional colormap used to map scalar data to colors. This port is hidden when histogram mapping is selected. See also Colormap.

Cylinder slice [optional]

Ports:

Translation

The translation of the dragger center with respect to the center of the base plane.

Rotation

The rotation of the dragger within the base plane.

Advanced

Mapping type

This option menu lets you select between the two mapping methods: histogram equalization and colormap mode. The port is not available if the Ortho Slice module is connected to an RGBA color field or to a 3D multi-channel field.

Contrast limit

This port is displayed if histogram equalization is selected. The number determines the contrast of the resulting image. The higher the value, the more contrast is contained in the resulting image. A value of zero means that contrast will not be limited at all.

Colormap

Choose colormap if mapping type is set to colormap.

Show

Show or hide the slices or the dragger.

Transparency

This radio box port determines the transparency of the slice. None means that the slices are fully opaque. Binary means that black parts are fully transparent while other parts are opaque. Alpha means that opacity is proportional to luminance. If a colormap is used for visualization, opacity values are taken from there.

Additionally, the color-mapping ports of Slice are provided.
