Hallo


I have recognized that if i add SetScale() then I get a sphere. But the
speher is allways the same wherever I click on the image. When I click on
the image I get my x,y,z coordinates for my SetCenter(x,y,z). 
I unterstood it like this: that when I click on the image the sphere begins
to grow biginning from that point up to the gradient image. Is that right?
I have noticed that m_Center appeared in the old version of
itkDeformableMesh3DFilter.txx that is:
m_ObjectLabel = m_Potential->GetPixel(m_Center)
but it doesen't appear at all in the new Version. Why?
But in the new Version m_Scale appears not so in the old version.
My last version is from 28.11.2002.

 Thanks a lot.

Hi! I write the code for deformable 3D mesh. I checked the code after
reviewing your last email.

I checked in a new version of itkDeformableTest and
itkedeformable3Dmeshfilter on 12/19 to fix some possible bugs. I am
sorry it
did not solve your problem.
the fact that I did not develope an itk2vtk application make it
difficult
for me to understand what could be the possible problems.
I will try explain the code as clear as possible to help you to search
for
the problems.

stiffness help to set the stiffness on the deformable surface.
the scale factors are used to make the deformable mesh with with
gradient
maps of different size.

the time step control the magnitude of deformation in each iteration.
the
step threshold define however steps is need to stop the filter. I am not
sure if this parameter is still in the newest version of itk.
one anothere thing is that I notice you are using a setcenter function,
which are not included in 12/19's update. i am not sure what could be
the
problem, did you use cvs to update the code from time to time?

hope to talk with more about the existing problems. thanks for your
efforts.

Why?
they ARE used in itkdeformabletest, I checked in a new verion of
itkdeformabletest on 12/19 and I used all theses parameter there.
