ActionDescription

Brushes

  • Point : draw one voxel at a time.

  • Disk : draw a "disk" within a radius of the "brush radius " size on one slice at a time.

  • Ball : draw a "ball" within a radius of the "brush radius" size on several slices.

Brush radius

Brush size in voxel or mm according to the chosen option in Modespanel

Opacity

Sets the opacity of drawn ROIs. Decrease it to increase transparency.

ActionDescription

Line

  • On : outlines that you draw will be continuous even if you draw rapidly.

  • Off : if you draw rapidly, lines won't be continuous.

Replace

  • On : Each voxel on which you draw will be added to the current region, even if it was already in another region. For examle, if a voxel V is in a region A and you're drawing a region B passing on voxel V, this voxel will move to region B.

  • Off : a voxel which is already in a region cannot be put in another one.

LinkedCursor

  • On : you can see your ROI in several views simultaneously while drawing.

  • Off : you cannot see your ROI in several views simultaneously while drawing.

BrushUnit

  • Voxel : the unit for the brush radius size is the voxel.

  • mm : the unit for the brush radius size is the mm.
