Dataset List
Up to Core widgets.
The dataset list shows all datasets loaded in the current window. Like any other core widget, it can be enabled or disabled and arranged freely within the window, based on personal preference. It allows loading additional datasets, and removing currently loaded datasets from display:
The checkbox in front of each entry in the list on the left determines whether the dataset is shown in the 3D renderer. A reference to all the datasets currently shown in this widget are stored when you choose the "Save Project" option from the file menu.
With the "+" button, you can add additional modalities to be analyzed within the same window, with "-" you remove a marked modality from display. The "3D Magic Lens" checkbox, when checked, activates a magic lens in the 3D renderer. You can add individual datasets to it via their properties, see below. The "Manual Registration" checkbox, when checked, activates an interaction mode in the 3D renderer, where you can move actors around manually. In that mode, the mouse interaction in the renderer is as follows:
- Mouse Drag: rotates the dataset below the mouse around its center
- Shift + Mouse Drag: moves the dataset below the mouse
- Ctrl + Mouse Drag: rotates the dataset around the viewing axis
When pressing the "Edit" button, a dialog appears with which you can modify several aspects of the dataset:
You can change the displayed name, the position, orientation, spacing and origin of the dataset. In addition, you can change several aspects about the rendering of the dataset (e.g., lighting parameters, renderer type and sample distance etc.); which parameters exactly are available is depending on the type of dataset. The dialog also shows the full file name in the edit box on top.
