Home < Slicer3:3.6 Final Issues

Notes:

  • Include the mantis bug number in your svn commit messages
  • Test your fixes in the slicer3 trunk - when you are sure they work, (1) move them to the Slicer-3-6 branch (2) move them from the TODO to the DONE category on this page
  • The Slicer3 repository is in maintenance mode - please do not add new features. New modules should be added only as extensions.

TODO: Issues to fix for the 3.6.4 patch release

  • volume rendering with rotated ROI is not handled correctly [1]
  • Integrate SPECTRE plugin as an extension once MIPAV is open sourced (Nicole)
  • Model/Slice intersections after scene load [2] (fixed in trunk - migrate to release branch when tested)
  • Lock fiducials when editor effects are active (Steve) (committed to trunk as r16373, migrate to 3.6 if all works as expected).
  • Adjust the appearance of slices in 3D view 1061 (Steve) - may not be in 3.6 at all, but should be in 4.
  • Fix version information for extension build/discovery bug 1123 (Steve)


  • http://na-mic.org/Mantis/view.php?id=1028 Request to compute checksum or md5sum and save as part of any storable node has registered as a feature request in Mantis. Plan right now is to create a method on MRMLScene->DataIOManager that will check for any data transfer with a status vtkDataTransfer::Failed. This status is set inside Base/Logic/vtkDataIOManagerLogic before data is loaded into slicer. Debugging this now... (Wendy)
  • Move Slicer3Helper::AddDataIOToScene to ApplicationLogic 1033 (Wendy)
    • commandlines currently cannot execute links to files with http address (Wendy)


  • Generate Robust MRI brain registration for EMSegmenter (Kilian, Dominik)


  • Increase the stored resolution of fiducials (Christoph ViewVC)


  • BRAINSResample is not available as a shared library (C++ symbol name in .so) 941 (Jim)
  • CompareView slice spacing issue 936 (Jim)
  • Migrate latest version of GrowCut into release branch (Harini and Jim)


  • update to version 3.6.4 (Steve)
  • Create distribution binaries and extensions (Steve)
  • Fix numpy builds on some windows systems by migrating to clapack (Steve, Dave)
  • Optimization for reslice behavior of prostate data [3], [4] (Steve)
  • Workaround in the extension script to support intermittent plastimatch build failures on mac os 10.5 (Steve, Greg)
  • Fix incorrect warnings about missing files (itclConfig.sh, iwidgets.tcl, BLT24.dll) on windows builds.


DONE: Issues fixed for inclusion in Slicer 3.6.4

  • Node Attributes are not automatically saved/loaded on Slicer3 (they are on Slicer4) [5]
  • Change to use numpy 1.4.1 from slicer3 mirror rather than relying on svn.scipy.org (which oddly now points to a git repository).[6]
  • Fix extra '.nii.gz' that gets added to file name on scene save (Alex/Nicole) [7]
  • Reset duplicate node name numbering when scene is closed (Alex) [8]
  • Moved vtkEMSegmentLogic::AddDataIOFromScene to base code and replace corresponding code in Slicer3.cxx with function call (Dominique)
  • Resample widget does not work properly in linked mode. In that situation, the slices should maintain the relative positions as the widget reorients them. (Steve, Jim, Michal) Works in trunk
  • Linked views and rotate to volume plane sticky issue [9] (Steve, Michal, Wendy, Nicole, Jim) Fixed by Steve.
  • pan mode resets slice orientation (bug #1117) (???) Works in trunk.
  • CompareView + side-by-sideLightbox + Widescreen CompareView problems 995 (Jim) Fixed in trunk
  • Compareviewer and crosshairs in Navigator mode: 4 compare viewers in wide screen mode (e.g. use case 40 for data). text is not suppressed, display is slow. (Jim) Works in trunk

TODO: Issues to fix for the 3.6.2 patch release Oct 22/10

DONE: Issues fixed for inclusion in Slicer 3.6.2

  • Merge "reference" volume attribute feature into CommandLineModule (Andrey)
  • 3D Viewer does not update when slice model is visible and dragging the Fg/Bg slider 1019 (Alex)

  • Detection of some BRAINS modules (e.g. BRAINSResample) (Steve)
  • Resolve bugs concerning vtkMRMLScene::GetReferencedSubScene 1032
  • Import does not correctly update reference 1010 (Alex)
  • Changing names of volume nodes is not propagated to GUI 1012 (Steve)
  • Editor tweaks:
    • add search to the color selector box - color list dynamically filtered when typing in search box
    • pick a new default size for the color selector box (or perhaps have it remember the last size/location picked by the user) - color box remembers size selected by user
    • give the color box a 'recently used' section - most recently used colors are now added at top of list for easy access
    • rename 'check points' to 'undo/redo'
    • implement compression (to vtk stencils) for label maps in the undo/redo stack (update: vtk stencils only represent a single value so they won't work for a multi-value labelmap - looking for alternatives). Done: implemented using new vtkImageStash class that uses ZLib to compress scalar image data. Also allows for compression in background thread so it does not get in the way of interactive use.
  • Failed memory allocation dialog box (Steve) - in slicer3 trunk
  • 3D Viewer disappears 1004 (Alex)
  • in the editor module compress saved label maps into stencils (Steve)
  • Side-by-side and Widescreen compare view linking problems appear fixed.
  • Ron requests default for crosshair to be navigator OFF
  • Import of XNAT xcat files not working 996 (Works for nrrd, not dicom. Release note added.)
  • FetchMi does not store path names correctly (was listed as 998, but refers to duplicate bug 993 which appears to be fixed now.
  • FetchMI problems mentioned here 998 and here 955 are due to (1) no or loss of network connection or (2) a full cache. (Wendy) added tests for network and server availability in fetchmi and for a full cache before attempting to transact with services.
  • FetchMI segfaults when uploading mrml file 1011 (Wendy: this problem is due to having no cache space. Clear the cache and make sure your filesystem has enough free space to play with, then the upload works.)
  • CompareView issue 929 (Jim)
  • Display tab in the volumes module should be open by default 1001
  • in the editor module replace the words "Check Points" with the word "Undo" (Steve)
  • CompareView + Crosshairs issue 928 (Jim)
  • Cannot change the window/level on color-by-orientation dti volumes (Alex [13]).
  • Ron's requested changes to the volume rendering transfer function (email from 8/20) (Alex->Steve: implemented and checked in trunk for testing):
    • add thumbnails to show effect of the transfer functions,
    • remove unneeded ones, correct a typo.

  • Ordering of the series by number in DICOM browser 965 (Steve)
  • Create robust pipeline for 3D MRI brain images 972 (Kilian)

  • Change names of the grow cut gesture volume nodes to be consistent with the naming conventions of label map (Harini)
  • Grow Cut: Change the gesture volume node to be displayed on the foreground and the segmented label volume node to be displayed on the label layer of the slice views (Harini)
  • Grow Cut: Modify the opacities of the label layer and the foreground layer to overlay the user input gestures, the resulting segmentation on the image background (Harini)

3.6 Release issues

Final punch list for slicer 3.6 release:

Finalized June 10 for 3.6 binaries and Announcements:Slicer3.6

  • VTK GPU ray-cast clipping issue
  • compare view + crosshair issue when loading a scene, the crosshair does not appear in all viewers until the slice location is changed, (Jim)
  • Picking NCI GPU Raycasting on machine that doesn't support it causes lockup. Not able to reproduce the problem (Yanling).

Done:

  • Remove unused color and glyph options from fiber bundle display (Alex)
  • fiducial behavior
  • fiducial behavior/3D viewer behavior: (Steve, Nicole, Wendy met Jun 7)
    • saw one example of persistent place mode being stolen by pick mode. I think this has to do with inappropriate initialization of modes. It is possible for pick mode to take over until transient-pick mode is explicitly chosen. (FIXED)
    • tractography updates not happening during drag - fixes checked into SlicerVTK and Slicer3 branch
    • tractography updates slow when drag stops (Steve confirmed this was due to update only happening when mouse was moved after button released - made it seem extra slow)
    • widget issues (Nicole putting fixes in SlicerVTK)
  • making sure mouse-modes work same in 3D/2D (Wendy and Nicole) Let's call it DONE!
    • done for 2d, Andras has tested it and says it's fine
  • editor volume merge feature clarification (Steve meeting Sonia June 2, fixes committed June 3)
  • getting BRAINS tests to pass (Hans is working on it)
  • tracking down what is making that crash on Mac OsX when several PET volumes are loaded into Slicer (Wendy).
  • are there extra pick operations going on? There seems to be a delay after clicking mouse before camera begins to rotate when large models are present in scene. could not replicate - tried 2.5 million triangle model on slicer and paraview and performance is the same
  • should picking of fiducials in 3D be disabled unless user explicitly chooses 'pick mode'? Not a good idea to change behavior at this point
    • should parallel behavior be implemented in 2D for consistency? Stevie votes no, Wendy votes yes. Not a good idea to change behavior at this point
  • roundtrip to xnat desktop --OK: confirmed that Ron was using dirty files in cache; checking 'always re-download' in the Cache and DataI/O Manager GUI caused fresh download and successful load into slicer. Sometimes, even when you delete cached files thru the GUI, some applicaiton is holding on to files still there and they don't get cleared out. I'm adding a little code to check for remaining files after a ClearCache() is called; if so, we'll warn user that not all files were removed, and to select 'always re-download' to ensure proper data loading.(Wendy)
  • view control gui: (Wendy) this guy isn't always updating anymore. He may be a casualty of multiple view nodes in the scene. He was a casualty but is fixed now!
  • The diffusion tensor estimation module is using defaults that are not good and partially incorrect. Can the defaults be as follows:
    • for Output DTI volume: DTI Volume
    • for Output Baseline Volume: Baseline DTI Volume
    • for Otsu Threshold Mask: Otsu Threshold Label Volume
  • new default color table (Nicole and Mike)
    • Mike working on creating a LUT from this hierarchy this subset, by Jun 7
    • Steve and Nicole to meet June 9 to integrate default editor color table
    • Jun 10: checked in new color files, one from GenericAnatomyColors, and one based on that but with names set to integer values and the color for 255 changed to blue. Wendy making new drop down menu icons.
  • finishing up the DICOM file copy on remote upload, also close (Wendy) (DONE)


Issues that cannot be fixed (or aren't crucial to fix) should be listed in the slicer 3.6 release notes.
