In need of per-streamline linewidth

[VincentBeaud]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I need to visualize tractography streamlines that have different widths (representing axonal diameters), but I can only provide the actor.streamtube function with a single linewidth.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like for actor functions that accept a linewidth argument (Ex: actor.streamtube, actor.line) to also accept an arraylike version for per-streamline width.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I have tried looping through each streamline and adding them separately to the scene, with no success.

s = window.Scene()
    for i, line in enumerate(tractogram.streamlines[:5]):
        line_actor = actor.streamtube(line, colors=[1., 0., 0.], opacity=0.5, linewidth=diameters[i])
        s.add(line_actor)

When using this alternative:

• actor.line gets me a memory error:

  malloc(): invalid size (unsorted)
  Abandon (core dumped)

• actor.streamtube gets me an empty scene, no matter what other actor I add to the scene. It kills the thing 😅

Edit: This solution actually works by changing it to ... actor.streamtube([line], .... The errors were simply related to that. It's a suboptimal solution, but my problem is fixed for now. I'll keep the issue open as the feature still seems relevant and rather quick to add.
