Slicer ColorPicker

The slicer colorpicker allows to select colors from a label map and to assign them to objects such as surface models or streamlines

Custom LUTs

It is relatively easy to create custom LUTs by creating a table with the colors on the wiki. This allows to select specific names and colors when segmenting. See below for an example.

integer_label	text_label	color	notes
0	background	rgba(0,0,0,0)
1	tissue	rgb(128,174,128)	Default label for bodily tissues
2	bone	rgb(241,214,145)
3	skin	rgb(177,122,101)
4	connective tissue	rgb(111,184,210)
