Hi Aashish,
We will try the latest whenever your fix is available.
Thank you so much for your advice.

Hi Kenji,
I created a merge request and added a test for two component (independent) with gradient opacity here (https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/merge_requests/1007/diffs). After sending you the patch I looked at your opacity values closely and was trying to find this tricky bug as I was not happy with the image the code was generating. I fixed all of the remaining issues and with you original code, I believe I am getting the correct rendering. Thank you so much for reporting this bug as not only I fixed the bug but hopefully increase the code coverage as well.
Thanks,
Aashish

Hi Kenji,
That's just my patch in case you had to send me what shader we were generating. You can
ignore this as in my branch to VTK, I will remove it. Make sure that your gradients are matching
with gradient opacity values or else you would not see anything or will see unexpected color
and opacity.

Now I can see volume rendering in both my application and test program with gradient option.
When I run, the console output program source code in the attached file.
Is this because I am using latest VTK?
Thank you,

Make sure that your gradient opacity function is set correctly (or as expected). I believe you are going from 0.0 - 0.5. Can you change it to 0.2 - 0.5 and see if something shows up?
Thanks,

Hi Aashish,
I tried, but both my application and the test program doesn’t work with gradient opacity.
The display window were black.
There is no apparent error…
Thank you,

Kenji,
Can you try the latest patch? Undo the last patch before you apply this patch:

Let me check.. scalarsRange is the local variables (float) type. I tested it on my Linux box and things were
fine but it is possible that gcc failed to catch it.

Hi Aashish,
I applied the patch to the latest VTK (from GIT) and rebuilt it.
An error occurred when I run the test program you gave me without gradient opacity.
Please find the attached file.
I am not sure why…
Thank you,

Hi Kenji,
Could you please try the attached patch? Once if works for you, I will clean it up and create a merge request.
Thanks,

Aha... I think I know how to fix the bug. Gradient opacity was the key. I will push a fix today.

Hi Aashish,
Adding gradient opacity to the test sample causes the same error I have seen in my application.
Please refer to the attached file.
So my application works with IndependentComponents On after removing gradient opacity.

Aashish,
Thank you very much.
I will try to run the test example and see what happens.
If the test is ok, I will try to reproduce the problem with simpler code.

Thanks Kenji for trying out. Its not clear in the log why the build shader code crashed.
Also, I realized that you using Java bindings. Would it be possible to re-create this issue
with a small sample code and you send it to me? We do have two component and 4 component
test (dependent and independent). Please have a look here: https://github.com/Kitware/VTK/blob/master/Rendering/Volume/Testing/Cxx/TestGPURayCastTwoComponentsIndependent.cxx
and
https://github.com/Kitware/VTK/blob/master/Rendering/Volume/Testing/Cxx/TestGPURayCastTwoComponentsDependent.cxx
Thanks,

Hi Aashish,
Thank you.
I tried with vtkGPUVolumeRayCastMapper.
An error occurs without setting IndependentComponentsOff.
It seems the error occurs in vtkOpenGLGPUVolumeRayCastMapper::BuildShader (See the attached file).

Hello,
I have 3D cardiac MRI data (magnitude data and velocity data), and would like to display the volume rendering of the two data.
I create vtkVolume with two components (first one is velocity data and second one is magnitude data) and use vtkSmartVolumeMapper.
When I set IndependentComponentsOn to the volume property, I can see what I want (refer to the first figure).
But this setting disables GPU rendering and it is slow.
I don't remember vtkSmartVolumeMapper has this logic, I will have a look. In the old GPU raycast mapper, there was some issue with independent components so may be that is the reason that smart volume mapper switched to fixed point ray cast.
Is there a particular reason you are using vtkSmartVolumeMapper? You can directly use GPUVolume RayCastMapper
My understanding is that I have to use IndependentComponentsOff to make the mapper use GPU rendering.
When I set IndependentComponentsOff, only one color transfer function, and only one scalar opacity function to the volume property,
the magnitude data (the second component) is also color-coded (refer to the second figure).
I thought this contradicts the method comments of IndependentComponentsOn/ IndependentComponentsOff.
“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.”
Am I missing something?
Can I make the volume rendering look the same as using two components?
Thank you,
BTY, I use v6.3.0, OpenGL2.
