How to remove annotation on ViewPort

[phtran-dev]

Hi @nroduit ,
I have Mamo dicom file, how to remove HR, A annotation on Viewport but still keep other information like Patient Info, ...
Uncheck Annotations would remove all annotation HR, A, Patient Info on viewport.

[nroduit]

We display orientation information (such as HR, A) as soon as the DICOM file contains orientation metadata. There is currently no option to remove only this orientation information from the viewport, as it is considered very important for accurate interpretation of medical images.

Hi @nroduit ,
thanks for your response. Can you show me where in the code I can modify this behavior ? And can you show me the way to build the weasis after I modify code by myself ?

[nroduit]

No, I will not help to change a behavior that is considered important for image interpretation. We do not give assistance for specific needs, except for contributions that participate in the common effort to improve Weasis.

The reason I am asking is that I am using weasis for dicom printing. Since this annotation is hiding some important visual area on the film then doctor does not like to see this annotation in the film

By unchecking "Orientation" in Display, it works for some modalities but not for those having PatientOrientation (0020,0020) in the metadata. This latter behavior should be changed so that disabling "Orientation" consistently removes those annotations regardless of the modality.

So will you change the code to remove "Orientation" annotation by unchecking "Orientation" option regardless of modalities ?

[nroduit]

I need to investigate, but I don't have time to look into it right now.
