Slicer3:DocumentationWink

Andreas: /* What are the best settings if using Wink with Slicer */

This page describes how to get wink and what the best settings are in combination with Slicer3. Please feel free to add settings, tips and tricks etc.
==What is Wink?==
"Wink is a Tutorial and Presentation creation software, primarily aimed at creating tutorials on how to use software (like a tutor for MS-Word/Excel etc). Using Wink you can capture screenshots, add explanations boxes, buttons, titles etc and generate a highly effective tutorial for your users." See more details here [http://www.debugmode.com/wink/ here].
==How do I get Wink?==
Wink can be downloaded [http://www.debugmode.com/wink/download.php here]
==What are the best settings if using Wink with Slicer==
* Record Slicer at a window size of about 1400x1050.
* Set Slicer's font size to largest.
* Choose a "Time Captured Rate" of 4 frames per second.
* Write down the steps that you want to do in your tutorial before recording it.
* Record your tutorial.
* Go to "Resize All Frames" (Projects menu), select Resize "Only frame" and "Resize to percent" this what that you reach a resolution of about 800x600.
* Add annotations and text boxes to your animation.
* If you add an annotation set "Stay in this frame for" to 5 seconds.
* When creating your project choose 10 frames per second.

Slicer3:Module Link Setup for Windows

Andreas: /* I still get linker errors */

When making a new library or module for Slicer3 you need to carefully set things up so for building. Best thing to do is copy an existing directory that does something similar to what you have in mind and then change things to match your module setup.

== Definitions ==

LibraryName is the first argument to ADD_LIBRARY in CMakeLists for your directory.

LIRBARYNAME is the argument to PROJECT() at the top of the CMakeLists

== Files to Change/Create ==

vtkLibraryNameConfigure.h.in -- just copy and rename an example one.

vtkLibraryName.h -- copy and rename example one and have it include vtkLibraryNameWin32Header.h (note that this .h file will be in your build directory and is made from the .h.in file above).

vtkLibraryNameWin32Header.h -- make the following changes:

<pre>
#ifndef __vtkLibraryNameWin32Header_h
#define __vtkLibraryNameWin32Header_h

#include <vtkLibraryNameConfigure.h>

#if defined(WIN32) && !defined(VTKSLICER_STATIC)
#if defined(LibraryName_EXPORTS)
#define VTK_LIBRARYNAME_EXPORT __declspec( dllexport )
#else
#define VTK_LIBRARYNAME_EXPORT __declspec( dllimport )
#endif
#else
#define VTK_LIBRARYNAME_EXPORT
#endif

#endif
</pre>

== In your code ==

In the .h files for your classes:

#include "vtkLibraryName.h"

Declare your classes as:

class VTK_LIBRARYNAME_EXPORT vtkMyClass : public vtkMySuperClass

CMakeLists.txt should contain:
<pre>
CONFIGURE_FILE(
${LIBRARYNAME_SOURCE_DIR}/vtkLibraryNameConfigure.h.in
${LIBRARYNAME_BINARY_DIR}/vtkLibraryNameConfigure.h
)
</pre>

==I still get linker errors==
If you still get the linker errors lnk2001 or lnk 2019 make sure that you declared the copy constructor and the assignment operator:
<pre>
vtkMyClass(const vtkMyClass&);
void operator=(const vtkMyClass&);
</pre>
