Hi Folks,

 

Thanks for the help.  I'm attempting to build this on Windows under
Visual Studio 2008.

 

It turns out that the ui_SimpleView.h file is being generated, but I had
to add '.' to the search path for include files for it to compile.  I'm
not familiar enough with CMake to know how to modify CMakeLists.txt to
modify the search path from there.

 

Once it compiles, it works like a champ.  No complaints about the icon
when the application is run either.  That seems to only occur when
loading into Qt Designer.

 

Thanks again.

Mike is correct - that files gets created and put in the bin directory
when the program is compiled. 

 

Scott, are you using the CMakeLists.txt file that is with the example?

I have this working on my system, so I can try to help with this.

Hmm. In my copy of the vtk example I have:

# Use the include path and library for Qt that is used by VTK.
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(
	  ${QT_INCLUDE_DIR}
	  ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}
	  ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}
)

I must have had that problem as well..

I grabbed my CMakeLists.txt from
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Qt/SideBySideRenderWindows.

If I make your modification and re-run CMake, everything works out of the
box.  Your include statement should be added to the example.

Thanks again.

Michael,

 

I just checked and you are right!  Although I am using statically linked
dcmtk, the run-time library is Multi-Threaded DLL (/MD) as the setting in
VTK.

 

Somehow I had an impression that /MD cannot be used when building statically
linked library.  It is probably something got stuck in my mind from
MFC/VC++6 days.


Thanks!


Xiaofeng Z

Hi Xiaofeng Z,
 
are you sure you are talking about mixing static/dynamic c-runtime
(determined via the compiler setting) and not the libraries itself
(Build_shared_libs)? The latter one is no problem at all.
 
If you mixed the c-runtime you are probably just lucky:

Hi!

I am new to vtk.

I am using the vtkImageImport class to view a non vtk object:

importer->SetImportVoidPointer(&myAdapter->m_ImageISIS->voxel<short>(0,0,0,0
));
importer->SetWholeExtent(0,dimensions[0]-1,0,dimensions[1]-1,0,dimensions[2]
-1);
importer->SetDataExtentToWholeExtent();
importer->SetDataScalarTypeToShort();
importer->Update();
viewer->SetInputConnection(importer->GetOutputPort());
viewer->SetZSlice(100);
viewer->Render();
sleep(5);

This works fine. The second thing i want to do is safe the data as a vtk 
image and open it with paraview:

vtkImageWriter* writer = vtkImageWriter::New();
writer->SetFileDimensionality(3);
writer->SetInputConnection(importer->GetOutputPort());
writer->SetFileName("test.vtk");
writer->UpdateWholeExtent();
writer->Write();

The file is safed, but i can not open it with paraview. There is always 
a message: "a reader for ... could not be found. please choose one".
And when i choose vtk image reader the message:
"

index 0: not well-formed (invalid token)

ERROR: In /build/buildd/paraview-3.4.0/VTK/IO/vtkXMLReader.cxx, line 360

Registered Events: (none)

Request: REQUEST_INFORMATION

appears.

The third thing i want to do is store the data to a vtkImageData object.
Is there any possibility to directly forward the vtkImageImport (or 
pointer of the first element of the data array) to the vtkImageData, so 
i do not have to do it voxel by voxel? Because this needs a lot of time 
for big data.

Thanks for your help!

cheers

It seems like paraview is expecting vtkXMLImageData, so you are getting
vtkXMLReader related error.Try using vtkXMLImageDataWriter and
vtkXMLImageDataReader.

Ahh very thanks....visualization is working now (at least slice-wise). I 
guess 3d rendering is a bit more complicated.

So the problem which remains is the storage in a vtkImageData object.
My approach is:

vtkImage->SetDimensions(dimensions[0],
                 dimensions[1],
                 dimensions[2]);
vtkImage->SetWholeExtent(0,dimensions[0]-1,0,dimensions[1]-1,0,dimensions[2]
-1);

vtkImage->SetSpacing(1,1,1);
vtkImage->SetNumberOfScalarComponents(1);
vtkImage->SetOrigin(0,0,0);
vtkImage->AllocateScalars();
short* scalarPtr = static_cast<short*>(vtkImage->GetScalarPointer());
scalarPtr = &myAdapter->m_ImageISIS->voxel<short>(0,0,0,0);
vtkImage->Update();

But if i hand the vtkImage to the viewer by:

viewer->SetInput(vtkImage);

the shown image is black :-(

Hello VTK users,

 

I'm using a visualization pipeline as the following:

 

vtkImageData->vtkImageReslice->...->vtkImageActor

 

for a multi-planar rendering of CT image and use vtkCursor2D to display the
focus point by first converting the display coordinate to world coordinate
in vtkImageData:

 

vtkRenderer& rndr =
*interactor->GetRenderWindow()->GetRenderers()->GetFirstRenderer();

rndr.SetDisplayPoint(currPos[0], currPos[1], 0);

rndr.DisplayToWorld();

double point[4];

rndr.GetWorldPoint(point);

// the value in the third component is fake, why???

//point[2] = 0.0;

// next, convert back to the original vtkImageData coordinate system

vtkImageReslice* reslice = ImageReslice;

reslice->GetOutput()->UpdateInformation();

vtkImageData& slice = *reslice->GetOutput();

vtkMatrix4x4 *matrix = reslice->GetResliceAxes();

double center[4];

matrix->MultiplyPoint(point, center);

 

 

 

Then convert it back screen coordinate to vtkCursor2D (this is neccessary to
synchronize the multiple views). In the following, "center" is the world
coordinate based on vtkImageData.

 

vtkMatrix4x4* invert = vtkMatrix4x4::New();

vtkMatrix4x4::Invert(&xform, invert);

double world[4];

invert->MultiplyPoint(center, world);

vtkRendererCollection* rc = renWin->GetRenderers();

assert(rc && rc->GetNumberOfItems() == 1);

vtkRenderer& rndr = *rc->GetFirstRenderer();

rndr.SetWorldPoint(world);

rndr.WorldToDisplay();

rndr.GetDisplayPoint(display);

vtkCursor2D& cursor = *callback->GetCursor2D();

int* size = renWin->GetSize();

cursor.SetModelBounds(1, size[0], 1, size[1], 0, 0);

cursor.SetFocalPoint(display);

 

The problems is the Cursor2D so placed is slightly off from where the mouse
is clicked, towards the center of the display.  Is it caused by rounding
error somewhere?  Does anyone know of a fix?

 

Thanks!

Hi Scott,

I once had the ui_*.h not found problem as well regarding the Qt
examples on the wiki under Ubuntu 9.10, CMake 2.8, VTK 5.4.2, if I
remember correctly. I somehow needed to add

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES("${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}")

to CMakeFiles.txt. Not sure about the missing icon though.

All,

When you find something missing in the examples, please add it! Or at least
bring it to our attention! The whole point of the examples is so that things
like this do not have be figured out repeatedly.

Thanks,

Hello,

another thing regarding this is bugging me:
When setting a large zoom factor by vtkImageReslice::SetResliceAxes -
the OutputExtent is not adjusted correctly -  so a way to large image
is displayed (basically the whole image - with a huge size). What
would be the proper way to adjust the OutputExtent? Could this be seen
as a bug in vtkImageResclice?

Okay, will try in the future. Normally, should we try to contact the
original author of the example first? I always worry about changing
someone else's work without them knowing.

I'd say if something is definitely wrong, then go ahead and change it. If it
is an opinion-based thing ("I think the background should be blue instead of
black") I'd say it'd be nice to have a discussion with the author. I always
click "watch" at the top of the examples I write - the wiki then informs me
via email when someone has edited the page. I'd definitely recommend
everyone do this when they create or edit pages.

Thanks,

David

Hi Erik,

Can't you just do viewer->SetInput(importer->GetOutput ())?   You
shouldn't have to do anything directly with the image data.  Once the
importer has updated, the image data should directly use the memory at
the void pointer that you provided.  Nothing else should be necessary.

Hi!

Well, this should be part of an adapter...so the user should get a list 
of pointers to vtkImageData objects (i return a list since the adapter 
also gets 4d data as input).
But it seems, this is not possible, so i have to return a list of 
pointers to vtkImageImport objects, what imho is a little odd for the 
user of the adapter.

cheers

Hello,

vtkHyperOctree is the class to represent a dataset as an octree.
point/cell Locators are just spatial structure to speed-up search but
there are not made to store datasets.

For example, see VTK/Graphics/Testing/Cxx/TestHyperOctreeSurfaceFilter.cxx

The source vtkHyperOctreeSampleFunction is used to create a
vtkHyperOctree dataset from a sphere implicit function.

vtkHyperOctreeSampleFunction is then plugged to a
vtkHyperOctreeSurfaceFilter to display the outer bounding box of the
octree.

ref: http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkHyperOctree.html

The other filters or source related to HyperOctree datasets are:
* vtkHyperOctreeFractalSource
* vtkHyperOctreeToUniformGridFilter
* vtkClipHyperOctree
* vtkHyperOctreeCutter
* vtkHyperOctreeDualGridContourFilter
* vtkHyperOctreeLimiter
* vtkHyperOctreeDepth
* vtkXMLHyperOctreeWriter
* vtkXMLHyperOctreeReader

Regards.

Excellent question. The best I can do is explain how used each is,
which will give you an idea of how they may be extended and supported
in the future.

The charts in GUISupport\Qt\Charts were being used by the ParaView
application up until very recently, when it switched to the new charts
being built in VTK\Chart. Don't expect to see much in the way of fixes
in the former (and they may be removed entirely in the near future),
but you should see lots of activity in the latter in the coming years.

The chart classes in Hybrid predate anything else, and are used
heavily in at least a few applications, especially ones with
dependencies to older versions of VTK. They are simpler, but may not
have as many features. I'd like to see these migrated to VTK\Chart at
some point, but they have more likelihood of sticking around for a
while.

Hope that gives you some sense of the current state of things.

Jeff

This sounds like a bug in the hardware selector. Can you create a bug
report with a simple test case attached to reproduce?

Hello all,

The VTK-5-6 branch has been created and CVS HEAD has been unlocked. This
branch will be used to produce the 5-6 release binaries in the near future.

Enjoy!

I should add that you can access this branch by:

cvs update -r VTK-5-6 -dP

Hi

I want to write an adapter which takes an image object of an own type 
and returns a list of vtkImageData type pointers, like:

data::ImageList imgList = isis::data::IOFactory::load("data.nii", "");

or

isis::data::ImageList imgList = isis::data::IOFactory::load("data.v", "");

imgList is the image object of type own, which i want to transform into 
a vtkImageData object, like

std::list<vtkImageData*> vtkList = 
isis::adapter::VTKAdapter::makeVtkImageList(imgList.front());

(do not be confused of the imgList.front()...this is an object of 
dimension 4, so i want to return a list of 3d vtkdata)

So, if someone for instance write an vtk image viewer which should 
support the isis image type, he/she can use the VTKAdapter to transform 
my own imagetype into a vtkImageData type and use it.

But the way things are going i have to return vtkImageImport objects:

std::list<vtkImageImport*> vtkList = 
isis::adapter::VTKAdapter::makeVtkImageList(imgList.front());

which actually was not my goal.

cheers

No the VTK-5-6-bp is a tag we create right before branching.

VTK-5-6 is the branch. Sorry the -dP are just my extra cvs arguments that I
probably should have reordered as.

cvs update -dP -r VTK-5-6

Well, I am not familiar with isis, but now I have an idea of what you
are trying to do.

First, note that when using STL containers with VTK objects, you must
always use smart pointers:

  std::vector<vtkSmartPointer<vtkImageData> > imageDataVector;

Smart pointers are the only way that the VTK garbage collector can
track objects that are inside of STL containers.


As for the rest, I really don't understand why you cannot make a list
of vtkImageData objects.  Why not do something like this?

For each 3D image:

1) create a vtkImageImport
2) set the vtkImageImport up for your data
3) call Update
4) use GetOutput() to get the vtkImageData
5) add the vtkImageData to a std:list<vtkSmartPointer<vtkImageData> >
container
6) call Delete on the vtkImageImport
7) repeat for the next 3D image

I have used a similar technique for importing 4D image to VTK with no
problem.

I tried that but it does not change the behavior of the program.

But interestingly when I am compiling and using the software on a  
machine running Mac OSX10.4 the slice updates without any problem,

but when I am using 10.6 the problems starts.

Does any body know anything about any buck on 10.6?

Francois,

So can you load points/cells from a vtkPolyData into a vtkHyperOctree?

No. An hyperoctree is a way to to store cell values in a more compact
way than a vtkImageData/vtkUniformGrid. The cells (node or leaves)
have a box shape. It is made to represent volumetric entities not 2D
primitives, like the primitives you can find in vtkPolyData.
