How to enable 3d reconstructruction #20

Closed ribalda closed 8 years ago

ribalda commented 8 years ago

Hello

I am trying to enable 3d reconstruction via:

Tools -> Settings -> Profiles -> New/Edit; Set 3D Reconstruction: "true",

But I cannot find the 3D reconstruction option.

I am using Linux 64 bits. Any hint?

Thanks!

Which version are you using? I have only access to what Metaemotion released as open source software, and as far as I can see there is no 3D reconstruction implemented. It has only a TODO in the code and an empty interface definition that might indicate that either the non-free version of the software implements this, or that it was a planned feature that never got implemented. In the open source version that can be compiled from the code here there is also no option "3D Reconstruction" in the profile settings.

I tried on both, git clone master and the binary from http://ginkgo-cadx.com/en/

I have seen youtube videos mentioning it, and also the enable procedure from https://sourceforge.net/projects/ginkgocadx/files/3.5.0/

Too bad it is not implemented :(

I see. Well, when I have time for it I might actually implement it. I've developed another tool mialmpick that does CT surface rendering of 3D data, but can't read DICOM files.
