From shawn.waldon at kitware.com Mon Apr 2 15:58:34 2018 From: shawn.waldon at kitware.com (Shawn Waldon) Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2018 15:58:34 -0400 Subject: [vtk-developers] Coverage In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi all, The nightly coverage build is back. It will run nightly if VTK's master branch changed during the day. Coverage seems down a bit, but that may be that I've turned on more modules than the old one (also the machine is using Mesa GL, so it skips most of the volume rendering tests).

The graphics converted just fine, but no text. I added the text to these figures. There is still some work to be done on the chapter. Notably recovering the equations. I'm looking for ways to do this. This effort will require access to the original Framemaker files, possibly requiring an export from FrameMaker to a more portable format than .fm files.\ I also converted the Preface and Introduction: https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/VTKBook/Preface/ https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/VTKBook/Introduction/ As usual, please reply with comments.

This is because Latex is really good at handling equations etc. Also it is easy to produce a PDF for publication for those who want a book format. I'm converting the markdown files that Bill has already done. Here is my first attempt at the Preface. I think I cal also add a little image at the top of each chapter. My Latex is pretty rusty but I will also have a go at Chapter 3 and 6. Regards Andrew On Wed, Apr 4, 2018 at 12:24 PM, Bill Lorensen wrote: > Definitely, need to find a solution.

I've spot some parts in the Chapters 3 and 6 strawmans that were already mentioned by you and Todd whose transition has some errors (links that are missing, missing cross-reference links to VTK classes, examples or bibliography, etc.). How can we contribute to fix them? Are you still working on the transition tools to improve the output, or you want us to manually try to fix them? I can help with/do all the Maths in LaTeX Bill. However, if the tool you found works or the transition will be automatic, I do not see where to help at this stage. Please, let me know. Otherwise, it's looking awesome. As for the LaTeX vs. Markdown/reStrucuredText discussion: I've contributed with some patches to the ITK SW Guide written in LaTeX. I guess at the time it was written Markdown and reStrucuredText were not available, so I think the choice was fair. Having said that, I admit that the learning curve for LaTeX may be higher than that for Markdown or reStrucuredText. The latter are tailored for web navigation, which is most people expect. And times have changed. I ignore whether Markdown/reStrucuredText support for tools to have proper printed texts is likely to be improved. I guess the ITK SW Guide requiring to be compiled (both the examples to generate the figures and LaTeX itself) is not a downside, since VTK Cxx examples used in this book need so. I guess having a first version for both cases (LaTeX and Markdown/reStrucuredText) is somehow costly at the beginning. Maintaining/sync'ing them once that is done every time there is a change may not effortless also. But that may be the price to pay. The ITK SW Guide keeps being maintained. I ignore whether the ITK folks at Kitware have considered to transition to Markdown or reStrucuredText. JON HAITZ -- On 6 April 2018 at 01:05, Todd via vtk-developers wrote: > Fantastic.

I have become a big fan of "print to pdf using the Chrome browser" to get a printed copy of web content these days. It's actually not a bad way to go if you don't need to refer to page numbers within the text. And now, this is just my opinion, so take with yet another grain of salt: The available "writer pool" for LaTeX is far far smaller than that for markdown. If the math stuff must be in LaTeX, I'd very strongly prefer to see it as embedded chunks of LaTeX than have the whole thing be in LaTeX. Nice work, as usual Bill. Thanks, David C.

Currently, none of the efforts will rewrite sections of the fourth edition. These are the first steps to a possible fifth edition, but that effort will require significant resources. 1) The printed and free online PDF of the VTK textbook is the gold standard for this edition. The online PDF is a low-resolution version that exhibits some difficulty converting equations. It is available as one, downloadable PDF with no active links. FrameMaker produces the PDF from FrameMaker files capable of producing different PDF resolutions. Editing the FrameMaker files requires a license from Adobe. It is unlikely the VTK community will have access to these proprietary files. Major contributors include Will Schroeder and other Kitware employees. See: https://www.vtk.org/vtk-textbook/ 2) A VTK latex version of the VTK textbook is a work-in-progress effort. The goal is to produce a Latex version populated with links to figures, references, equations, examples, etc. The PDF version is downloadable as a single file. The figures that exist as VTK Examples are linked to the nightly output of the regression testing. Once this work is stable, the user community will be able to push merge requests to fix problems with the Latex. The major contributor is Andrew Maclean. You can follow the progress here: https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/VTKBookLaTex/VTKTextBook/ 3) A markdown version of the VTK textbook is also a work-in-progress. The goal is to produce an interactive, platform friendly version of the book. The entire text is available on as a Chapter by Chapter website. The figures that exist as VTK Examples are linked to the nightly output of the regression testing. Once this work is stable, the user community will be able to push merge requests to fix problems with the markdown. The major contributors are Bill Lorensen and Bernhard Meehan. Bernhard has produced Latex for all 100 equations in the text. You can follow the progress here: https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/VTKBook/Chapter1/ and other chapters. When the Latex and Markdown versions are more complete, we will ask the user community to help proofread the new versions.

Basically you have to implement FillInputPortInformation And you only need to implement it if you want an input different to the type of the algorithm you are inheriting from. Eg, the vtkTransformFilter is a vtkPointSetAlgorithm, but support multiple input data type : int vtkTransformFilter::FillInputPortInformation(int vtkNotUsed(port), vtkInformation *info) { info->Remove(vtkAlgorithm::INPUT_REQUIRED_DATA_TYPE()); info->Append(vtkAlgorithm::INPUT_REQUIRED_DATA_TYPE(), "vtkPointSet"); info->Append(vtkAlgorithm::INPUT_REQUIRED_DATA_TYPE(), "vtkImageData"); info->Append(vtkAlgorithm::INPUT_REQUIRED_DATA_TYPE(), "vtkRectilinearGrid"); return 1; } Best, Mathieu Westphal On Tue, Apr 24, 2018 at 11:02 AM, Ronald R?mer wrote: > I want to write a new filter and I wonder if it is possible to get the > type of a connected filter.

Currently, none of the efforts will rewrite sections of the fourth edition. These are the first steps to a possible fifth edition, but that effort will require significant resources. 1) The printed and free online PDF of the VTK textbook is the gold standard for this edition. The online PDF is a low-resolution version that exhibits some difficulty converting equations. It is available as one, downloadable PDF with no active links. FrameMaker produces the PDF from FrameMaker files capable of producing different PDF resolutions. Editing the FrameMaker files requires a license from Adobe.

See: https://www.vtk.org/vtk-textbook/ 2) A VTK latex version of the VTK textbook is a work-in-progress effort. The goal is to produce a Latex version populated with links to figures, references, equations, examples, etc. The PDF version is downloadable as a single file. The figures that exist as VTK Examples are linked to the nightly output of the regression testing. Once this work is stable, the user community will be able to push merge requests to fix problems with the Latex. The major contributor is Andrew Maclean. You can follow the progress here: https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/VTKBookLaTex/VTKTextBook/ 3) A markdown version of the VTK textbook is also a work-in-progress. The goal is to produce an interactive, platform friendly version of the book. The entire text is available on as a Chapter by Chapter website. The figures that exist as VTK Examples are linked to the nightly output of the regression testing. Once this work is stable, the user community will be able to push merge requests to fix problems with the markdown. The major contributors are Bill Lorensen and Bernhard Meehan. Bernhard has produced Latex for all 100 equations in the text. You can follow the progress here: https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/VTKBook/Chapter1/ and other chapters. When the Latex and Markdown versions are more complete, we will ask the user community to help proofread the new versions.

The LaTex version (pdf) is actually looking really good on phones and tablets using the Adobe PDF reader. If a new version of the book is produced, it maybe that the rewrite would be done in LaTex as it seems fairly straightforward to convert to markdown and do manual fixes. I suspect scripting will be able to handle most of the conversion from LaTex to the markdown used by Bill. I don't see it as a major issue having two versions as long as changes are reflected in both versions. Also the community with their eagle eyes will pick up issues and fix them!
