<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have 3D cardiac MRI data (magnitude data and velocity data), and would like to display the volume rendering of the two data.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I create vtkVolume with two components (first one is velocity data and second one is magnitude data) and use vtkSmartVolumeMapper.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I set IndependentComponentsOn to the volume property, I can see what I want (refer to the first figure).</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But this setting disables GPU rendering and it is slow.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My understanding is that I have to use IndependentComponentsOff to make the mapper use GPU rendering.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I set IndependentComponentsOff, only one color transfer function, and only one scalar opacity function to the volume property,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the magnitude data (the second component) is also color-coded (refer to the second figure).</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I thought this contradicts the method comments of IndependentComponentsOn/ IndependentComponentsOff.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“For 2 component data, the first is passed through the first color transfer function and the second component is passed through the first opacity transfer function.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Am I missing something?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can I make the volume rendering look the same as using two components?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">BTY, I use v6.3.0, OpenGL2.</p>
