[vtkusers] help on SLC files

Thu Jun 8 11:05:14 EDT 2000

Hello Arindam,

Right now you can't create an SLC file - only read one. I am considering 
adding an SLC writer to VTK - but probably not for another month or so if I 
do. I'd rather not because I don't want to perpetuate this file format - 
the reader was added in order to bring in legacy data sets from VolVis. 
Other than VolVis and VTK (and apps built on VTK like VolView) I don't 
think there are any apps / libraries / toolkits out there that know about 
the SLC format. If your data is a contiguous array of values (with or 
without a header) you should be able to read it with a vtkImageReader.
