A simple Viewer for 3D data built with VTK and Python. There are two versions:
- GUI built with Python Qt
- Web viewer, built with trame
The viewers can also be embedded into any Qt application. An example of use of the viewers in another app is the iDVC app
To install via conda, create a new environment using:
conda create --name cilviewer ccpi-viewer=23.1.0 -c ccpi -c conda-forge- Activate your environment using:
conda activate cilviewer. - Launch by typing:
cilviewer - Load a dataset using the File menu. Currently supported data formats:
- HDF5, including Nexus
- Raw
- Tiff
- Numpy
- Metaimage (mha and mhd)
See here for instructions on how to install and run the web viewer.
The interactive viewer CILViewer2D provides:
- Keyboard Interactions:
- 'h' display the help
- 'x' slices on the YZ plane
- 'y' slices on the XZ plane
- 'z' slices on the XY
- 'a' auto window/level to accomodate all values
- 's' save render to PNG (current_render.png)
- 'l' plots horizontal and vertical profiles of the displayed image at the pointer location
- 'i' toggles interpolation
- slice up/down: mouse scroll (10 x pressing SHIFT)
- Window/Level: ALT + Right Mouse Button + drag
- Pan: CTRL + Right Mouse Button + drag
- Zoom: SHIFT + Right Mouse Button + drag (up: zoom in, down: zoom out)
- Pick: Left Mouse Click
- ROI (square):
- Create ROI: CTRL + Left Mouse Button
- Resize ROI: Left Mouse Button on outline + drag
- Translate ROI: Middle Mouse Button within ROI
- Delete ROI: ALT + Left Mouse Button

The head dataset is avaiable in CIL-Data as 'head.mha' along with its license.
The CIL Viewer code took initial inspiration from a previous project of Edoardo Pasca and Lukas Batteau PyVE, the license of which we report here:
