240 -Save your annotations with the "save" or "save as" buttons. The file format is .lz
228 +3. Enter a name for the descriptor json file which will be created and will contain your anchoring information.
241 241  
242 -=== Export of coordinate points ===
230 +4. Choose the target 3D reference atlas (WHSv3 for Rat and CCFv3_2017 for Mouse).
243 243  
244 -The created points can be exported to an Excel book by pressing "XLSX export".
232 +5. Press //"create"//. The main window will now display WebAlign. This step can take some time.
245 245  
246 -The saved .lz file can also be visualised in the 3D viewer, MeshView.
234 +=== Registration instructions ===

248 -== **How to use MeshView** ==
236 +**Short keys**
249 249  
250 -MeshView is a web application for real-time 3D display of surface mesh data representing structural parcellations from volumetric atlases, and point clouds extracted from datasets.
238 +|=To do this|=Press|=Description
239 +|Place marker|Space bar|Markers are the anchor points of most transformations (stretch and rotate).
240 +|Remove marker|Esc|Removes a previously placed marker.
241 +|Horizontal stretch from marker |Left/Right arrow keys|Marker becomes a vertical line, and mouse drag horizontally resizes the cut.
242 +|Vertical stretch from marker |Up/Down arrow keys|Marker becomes a horizontal line, and mouse drag vertically resizes the cut
243 +|Rotate around marker|PgUp/PgDown|Marker becomes a cross with a surrounding arc, and mouse drag rotates the cut.
244 +|In plane adjust |Click + drag|If there is no marker, or the marker is a cross, mouse drag slides the cut in its plane (translation).
251 251  
252 -Online manual: [[https:~~/~~/meshview-for-brain-atlases.readthedocs.io/en/latest>>https://meshview-for-brain-atlases.readthedocs.io/en/latest]]
246 +**Start the registration**
253 253  
254 -The view can be magnified using the 4-arrow "X" symbol in the top-right corner.
248 +The main window shows the selected image with the atlas overlay.
255 255  
256 -=== Open point cloud files ===
250 +-If necessary, change the atlas from coronal view to sagittal or horizontal view (see Navigation panel below)
257 257  
258 -MeshView can open annotations from LocaliZoom (.lz files). Possibility of a global control of all structures, using the slider will render the meshes transparent or disappear.
252 +~1. Move the atlas to the approximate position of your section using the yellow dots in the three small windows from the navigation panel.
259 259  
260 -The individual control allow each structure to be made transparent or disappear. The color for each structure can be changed when clicking on the colored square.
254 +2. Start anchoring by placing a marker with the //"Space bar//" , it is initially a cross, and it is the fix point of (most) transformations. The "//Escape key//" can be used to remove the marker.
261 261  
262 -Navigation in the hierarchy is possible by clicking on the region names (grey boxes), this will collapse parts of the region tree.
256 +3. The main window supports mouse drag in multiple modes in order to stretch the atlas and find the correct position.
263 263  
264 -=== Export images ===
258 +-If there is no marker, or the marker is a cross, mouse drag slides the cut in its plane (translation).
265 265  
266 -The "screenshot" button allows to capture the main window view as a png file.
260 +-Keyboard controls to modify mouse drag (they also place the marker if it's not placed already):
267 267  
268 -[[image:image19.png]]
262 + -Left/Right arrow keys: marker becomes a vertical line, and mouse drag horizontally resizes the cut
269 269  
264 + -Up/Down arrow keys: marker becomes a horizontal line, and mouse drag vertically resizes the cut
265 +
266 + -PgUp/PgDown keys: marker becomes a cross with a surrounding arc, and mouse drag rotates the cut. This may look weird because the cut remains being a rectangle, and when  the horizontal and vertical physical resolutions (like pixels/mm) of the image do not match, atlas cut will appear stretching/shrinking with the rotation.
267 +
268 +After each transformation step, marker resets to a cross (translation mode).
269 +
270 + //Note!// The panel can be resized towards the left (common border with Control Panel) and towards the bottom (common border with Filmstrip).
271 +
272 +4. Save the position by pressing //"Store". //The registration is copied to the remaining slides to help with scaling (visible also in the filmstrip)
273 +
274 +5. Go through all sections and refine position and cutting angles.
275 +
276 + //Note!// When jumping from one section to the other, wait a few seconds for the image to load
277 +
278 + //Note!// The "restore" button allows you to go back to the saved position if necessary
279 +
280 +6. Save your results in the descriptor file (json) by pressing "Save to bucket".
281 +
282 +7. When the registration is finished, you can export your descriptor files ( .flat files used for analysis in the QUINT workflow) by pressing //"export overlays".//
283 +
284 +**Control panel:**
285 +
286 +|=Button|=Function
287 +|Store |Store the current alignment and propagate to unaligned sections (**Note** this does not save the series to your bucket)
288 +|Restore |Reset the current alignment to the last stored position
289 +|Clear |Reset the current alignment to the default position
290 +|Overlay Slider |Opacity of the atlas overlay, when fully opaque, it becomes an outline
291 +|Overlay color |The outline color
292 +|Filmstrip slider and color|The above settings, applied to the filmstrip
293 +|Save to bucket|Save the series to your bucket (and overwrite the existing file)
294 +|Export overlays|Generates a series of .flat files (for Nutil or similar utility), and stores them into a .zip file in the bucket (re-using the name of the series descriptor, e.g. series13.json will export series13.zip)
270 270  
296 +
297 +The right border of the control panel can be dragged horizontally, allowing to resize the panel and the main view
298 +
299 +**Filmstrip:**
300 +
301 +Drag horizontally to see series, click on a section in order to load it into the main view The top border of the filmstrip can be dragged vertically, allowing to resize the panel and the main view
302 +
303 +**Navigation panel:**
304 +
305 +Shows the three standard planes centered around the midpoint of the current alignment visible in the main view.
306 +
307 +The rectangle of the current cut is projected on each standard plane as a yellow line/rectangle/parallelogram. A small yellow circle represents the midpoint of the projection.
308 +
309 +Drag the midpoint around to move the cut.
310 +
311 +Drag anywhere else to rotate the cut (inside the given standard plane, around the midpoint)
