[Ctk-developers] Extend CTK CLI XML schema for meshes and grids

[Andras Lasso]

type="model" means vtkPolyData. Probably it's better not to overload this meaning but instead define a new type for vtkUnstructuredGrid. Maybe something like type="unstructured-model", type="unstructured", type="unstructured-grid".

Hi all!

thank you for your feedback and sorry for my late response, I was on a business trip last week.
We are using the image tag to create a image specific selection combobox in MITK, so that only images can be selected as input parameters.

Now some of our users want to have the same selection combobox for vtkPolyData and vtkUnstructuredGrid. I will have to check whether the geometry type is sufficient for that. I think if we could differentiate between polydata and unstructuredGrid, it would be great and the "model" type might be to generic for that.

Thanks again!

Andreas

Hi -

In our (slicer) terminology Model is basically a vtkPolyData for the purposes of a CLI.  A fiber bundle is a specialized type of Model that includes tensors at the vertices of polylines.

Hi Andreas,

Sounds good to me in principal. However, I have to admit to not knowing all the history.
I also can see that there is a geometryType, which has enumeration of fibrebundle and model.
Both of these could I imagine (but don't know for sure) be represented by vtkPolyData.
So, are meshes and grids similar?
