[ITK-users] [ITK] Bug in CenteredTransformInitializer for RGB solved?

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Hello,

The error you reported is a compilation error. When compiling all options need to be compiler. The "GeometryOn" option is a run-time options, so while the moments computation is compiled it not actually calculated in this configuration.
