== General Information ==
===Module Type & Category===

Type: CLI

Category: Surface Models

===Module Description===
This Python module takes in input a surface and labels it according to surface connectivity. The module either labels the surface with a different RegionId for each connected region, or it extracts the connected region closest to an input fiducial. Optionally, the module produces a list of fiducials positioned on each connected region and labeled with its RegionId.

== Usage ==

===Use Cases, Examples===

* The module is appropriate when there is need of extracting different disconnected components of a model or label them.
* For developers: the module is a good example on how Python CLI modules can access and modify the MRML scene (unlike executable and shared library CLI modules)

===Quick Tour of Features and Use===

{|

* '''Surface Connectivity Parameters:'''
** ''Connectivity mode'': choose between assigning a RegionId to each connected region (AllRegions) or extract the connected region closest to a seed fiducial (ClosestToSeed).
** ''Enable output fiducials'': enable output of a fiducial list containing one fiducial per connected region labeled with the corresponding RegionId
* '''IO:'''
** ''Input Surface'': the input surface
** ''Output Surface'': the labeled surface (for AllRegions mode) or the labeled portion of the surface closest to the seed (for ClosestToSeed)
