3D snapshots

Scroll Prev Top Next

 

3D snapshots allow for saving the current state of the 3D VR (Volume Rendering) viewer and a quick restore. The following image settings are stored in a 3D snapshot: position and rotation of the object, zoom factor, scalpel actions, 3D preset (color look-up table), and the range of displayed values (window settings).

These can also be used to create scenarios for advanced VR movies.
