public class VJRenderViewCine

extends VJRenderView

This subclass of VJRenderView implements cine mode rendering. Subclasses of VJRenderer need to implement a new instantiation method, and a new prepareNext(). If the total cine renderings are smaller than 32Mb, they are shown on screen as a stack, and backed-up in the ImageJ directory under the name "VolumeJ_Cine.tif". If the total cine renderings would be larger than 32 Mb, each rendering is separately saved in the ImageJ directory under the name "VolumeJ_Cine_XXXX.tif". Copyright (c) 2001-2002, Michael Abramoff.

Constructor Detail

VJRenderViewCine

public VJRenderViewCine(VJRenderer renderer,
                        float scale,
                        float rotx,
                        float roty,
                        float rotz,
                        java.lang.String message,
                        int n,
                        boolean toDisk)

Instantiates a new rendering shell: a wrapper for a VJRenderer to allow cine (multiple rotated views) renderings.

Parameters:

renderer - a VJRenderer

scale - the amount by which to scale the volume

rotx, - roty, rotz the amount by which to rotate the amount in that order.

message - a useful message to identify the characteristics of this rendering.

Method Detail

run

public void run()

The top level rendering thread handler. Takes care of rendering the cine series and updating the transformation matrix after each cine step. It saves intermediate renderings to a file in the current directory.

Overrides:

run in class VJRenderView

nextView

protected void nextView(int k)

Prepare for the next rendering in a cine rendering. In this case, rotate the transformation matrix (i.e. the volume) by the step rotation amounts in x,y,z. Overload as wanted to implement other types of cine rendering.

Parameters:

k - the number of the current (i.e. before the next) rendering.

setRotationSteps

public void setRotationSteps(float stepx,
                             float stepy,
                             float stepz)

Set the rotation steps around the x,y and z axes (per cine step).

Parameters:

stepx - rotation in degrees around x-axis.

stepy - rotation in degrees around y-axis.

stepz - rotation in degrees around z-axis.
