ImageJ Enhancements
Locked
 
|
Good Day List,
We have an interest in furthering development of ImageJ and concentrating on the following areas: 1. Conversion into a light-weight applet, 2. Simplifying the user interface, 3. Making ImageJ more suitable for general usage as an image viewer, 4. Reorganizing the source tree for development optimization 5. Integrating multi-platform scanning We'd like to get as many other developers as possible involved to work on these items and any other enhancements they would like to implement. The idea is to use the current ImageJ source code as the base code for all new development. The licensing for all code contributed will remain as Public Domain. Last night a project called ImageJA was registered with SourceForge. All feature enhancements made to ImageJA will be submitted as enhancements to ImageJ. ImageJA will always remain a derivative work of Wayne Rasband's ImageJ and all effort will be made to preserve this reference. The project is located at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageja/> http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageja/ and the main web site is at <http://imageja.sf.net/> http://imageja.sf.net. The project also has two mailing lists (one for users and one for development). We have already imported the latest stable code into CVS. We hope we can work together on enhancing the excellent code that has been produced thus far. Thanks, Sarel Botha |

Was this inspired by my request to have ImageJ enhanced. I have been
searching for someone to do this and now you are going to do it for free? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sarel Botha" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Friday, October 14, 2005 6:48 PM Subject: ImageJ Enhancements Good Day List, We have an interest in furthering development of ImageJ and concentrating on the following areas: 1.

Good Day,
Our idea was not directly linked to your request. The enhancements we are wanting to do are more for general image usage via applets and then giving back to ImageJ without condition. We also wanted to give an avenue for open source developers to quickly and easily make changes that will benefit everyone (and stay public domain!). I am not personally familiar with dicom x-ray images, but if it is popular enough it might be added to the codebase depending on who enters development.

Dear Sarel,
Please note that ImageJ is NOT a general purpose image viewer. There are hundreds of those in the web. ImageJ is a piece of excellent scientific software, so simplifications may ultimately harm its intended use. So apart from this I have several questions on the aims of the proposed project: 1) How do you define lightweight? 20KB, 100KB, 500KB? 2) How do you think to reorganize the source tree? This may indeed be a useful step to introduce in ImageJ. 3) What features do you plan to sacriface for the purposes of your project? best regards D Prodanov |

Hello ImageJers,
I get a lot of your emails, and usually read them all so I don't mind sending in another small message of my own. It relates a bit to the "new UI" email I included below... I am doing development work now to build an advanced UI to work with or alongside of ImageJ capabilities. It will be a proprietary media stream handling GUI for play back of video frame data for still frame analysis. The frame rate is quite low, so its ok for Java. It probably doesn't relate to any of the work the list is doing. Also, I won't be able to contribute any of my work to the group. But the technology I've chosen maybe an upgrade path for the ImageJ work. http://www.eclipse.org/swt/ I've skinned ImageJ with SWT, and I'm in the process of merging the Image container handling for user presentation. This won't affect at all any core ImagePlus or plugin work, except the Image view will be in this sort of look: http://eclipse.org/articles/Article-Image-Viewer/Image_viewer.html http://eclipse.org/articles/Article-SWT-images/graphics-resources.html http://eclipse.org/articles/main.html#SWT Also how one will navigate ImageStacks will more resemble how one would interface with a VCR, instead of the current Slider control. cheers, -Aaron -----Original Message----- From: ImageJ Interest Group [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of xrayimage Sent: Saturday, October 15, 2005 12:19 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: ImageJ Enhancements Was this inspired by my request to have ImageJ enhanced.

Hello,
This is very interesting: I like ImageJ, but find the look&feel is less than optimal. I really like the SWT/Eclipse look&feel. Just a personal feeling... just for a little bit of encouragement.
