a question about using obliqueslice

[liuyijin]

Hi,
I have one question about saving obliqueslices in Avizo.
Using the obliqueslice, we can view slices in different orientations (using the 'rotate' option).
This is pretty cool.
Is it possible to save the set of obliqueslices with different translate value into a set of image files in a batch way?
Thanks!

Try the combination of following commands,

1. ObliqueSlice setPlane <origin uVec vVec>
Adjust position and orientation of the plane. The command expects 9 numbers in the same format as returned by the getPlane command.

2. ObliqueSlice fire

3. ObliqueSlice createImage

Let us know how it works out for you.

Best,

Alternative to command #1 above is,

ObliqueSlice rotate <orientationVector Angle>

e.g.,

ObliqueSlice rotate 0 0 1 60

Hi Shawn,

Thanks for the reply.
Your method worked for generating one slice.
My further question is that if it is possible to make some code like a "for" loop to generate all the slices?
Thank you!

Hi Yijin,

Absolutely. Avizo uses TCL for its scripting interface, which is a full-featured programming language supporting loops and conditional branches.

Check out http://www.tcl.tk/.
