Hi,
I want to upgrade to MITK 2016.03.0 and I need to update our code that used
the mitk::DisplayGeometry functions to translate coordinates.
>From the documentation I see that the Map functions have been removed and
the new WorldToDisplay and DisplayToWorld functions work with continuous
index, but the PlaneToDisplay and DisplayToPlane functions work with
millimetre positions.
Is it intentional, or is it a mistake in the documentation? The geometry
functions, e.g. GetCenter(), GetOrigin() all returns mm position, so I
would find it more consistent if the WorldToDisplay and DisplayToWorld
functions would handle mm arguments as well.
Moreover, the naming of the WorldToIndex and IndexToWorld functions of
mitk::BaseGeometry() also suggest that "World" means millimetre, and
"Index" means continuous index.
In my opinion, if the documentation is right, the
WorldToDisplay/DisplayToWorld functions should be named
IndexToDisplay/DisplayToIndex, respectively, but it would be even more
useful to have WorldToDisplay/DisplayToWorld functions that convert from/to
mm coordinates.
Shall I use renderer->GetCurrentWorldGeometry()->WorldToIndex(...) to get
the continuous index that I can pass to WorldToDisplay()? (And the other
way around...)
Cheers,
Miklos
