Module Description

Allows the user to manipulate several different characteristics of the traced white matter tracts. Examples are: change of color; display of the fractional anisotropy along the tract; display of the tracts as tubes or lines; interactive selection of the tracts; and cropping.


Use Cases

Most frequently used for these scenarios:

  • Use Case 1: Change the scalar quantity displayed along the tract, like Fractional Anisotropy or Color By Orientation
  • Use Case 2: Display the tracts as lines or tubes
  • Use Case 2: Interactive selection or cropping of a certain bundle.

    • Second input
  • Parameters panel:
    • First parameter
    • Second parameter
  • Output panel:
    • First output
    • Second output
  • Viewing panel:
Name of panel 1
  • Input panel2:
    • First input
    • Second input
  • Parameters panel:

Information for Developers


Note The section above is generated using the following wiki code:

{{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-section|Information for Developers}}
{{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-developerinfo|ModuleTemplate|type=Interactive|category=Example}}

If you are documenting a CLI, the category should be extracted from the corresponding XML description. This could be done automatically using the following wiki template:

{{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-category|xmlurl=http://path/to/YOURMODULENAME.xml }}

If your module is available in Slicer repository, the following template could be useful to obtain the corresponding URL:

{{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-cli-xmlurl|{{documentation/modulename}}|SVNREVISION}}

Using this later template, the final syntax would be:

{{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-category|xmlurl={{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-cli-xmlurl|{{documentation/modulename}}|SVNREVISION}} }}
