Surface image Point Representation too small
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

  • Load a surface image (eg .stl file)
  • In DataManager, rt click > Surface Representations > Points
  • 3D view shows points

These points are small, somewhat immediately illegible.

An option to change the point size would be better

Later on, I find that the option to change point size exists in Properties > material > pointSize. However, it seems unintuitive (?)

The thing is, most surfaces that are generated within MITK have a very high vertex count and changing the default point size could lead to a lot of visual clutter. You found already a way to change the point size. BTW, be aware, that in general the Properties view is meant as a Power User / Developer view. Changing properties here should be a last resort for typical users in case there isn't any dedicated widget for the same setting in any other view.
