<br>Are you using vesKiwiViewerApp or have to forked/renamed it to create your own app class? Either way, I'd add a new convenience method to your app class (or vesKiwiViewerApp) that returns the representation:<br>
<br>vesKiwiBrainAtlasRepresentation* vesKiwiViewerApp::getBrainRepresentation();<br><br>Next, modify vesKiwiBrainAtlasRepresentation (or fork and rename it to be your own class), so that rather than show a text label, it stores the 2D screen coordinates and the model id and string. Then add api to the representation, something like:<br>
<br>// return whether or not a model was selected during the last double tap event<br>bool modelWasSelected();<br><br>// return information about the model that was selected during the last double tap event<br>int selectedModelId();<br>
std::string selectedModelName();<br>vesVector2f selectedModelScreenCoordinates();<br>
<br><br>Then, in objective-c, after calling:<br><br><i> </i>self->renderer.app->handleDoubleTap(currentLocation.x, currentLocation.y);<br><br>You could do:<br><br>vesKiwiBrain<br><i> </i>if (rep->modelWasSelected()) {<br>
<br> NSString* modelName = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:rep->selectedModelName().c_str()];<br> ...<br><br>}<br><br>Hope this helps!<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br>Pat</font></span><div class="HOEnZb">

</div>I will let Pat give you more details on it but I would think that you<br>
can derive your own representation from<br>
vesKiwiBrainAtlasRepresentation and then add a new method that can<br>
give<br>
a string name of the model, call this method findModel(x,y) or something.<br>
