More descriptive config file parameter names needed #110

Closed Sunderlandkyl closed 5 years ago

Sunderlandkyl commented 7 years ago

Some parameter names in the config files are still not informative enough. E.g. VolumeReconstruction/OutputSpacing -- this could be OutputSpacingPixelsPerMm. VolumeReconstruction/ClipRectangleOrigin ans Size -- this is clear for people who are familiar with VTK: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Tutorials/Extents , but not clear to other people. Maybe if units were added, that would make it easier to understand.

In general, when a parameter gives a measure, units must be specified in the name. When the parameter gives a geometrical object (point, vector, rectangle), it would be nice to also specify the coordinate system where the object is defined.

Can address individual variable names as discovered.
