{icon arrow-left} [[mitk/changelog/2024.05 | Previous changelog]] • [[mitk/changelog/2024.11 | Next changelog]] {icon arrow-right} = 🛠 Third-party dependency changes = In an effort to make MITK compatible with recent compiler versions, we upgraded a few dependencies. At least on Ubuntu, we highly recommend to upgrade Qt to v6.6.2 or later, since with Qt v6.6.1, the MITK Workbench spams warnings related to GLEW into the terminal. | Dependency | Old version | New version | | --- | --- | --- | | HDF5 | v1.8.17 | v1.14.3 (with v1.8 API) | | PCRE | v8.35 | v8.45 | | VTK | v9.2.6 | v9.3.0 (patched) | = ✨ New features = - Added the following command-line apps to our official installers: - **GenericFittingMiniApp**: Make a pixel-based fitting on the intensity signal over time for a given model function. - **PixelDumpMiniApp**: Dump (potentially masked) pixel values of passed images into a CSV file. - **Fuse3Dto4DImageMiniApp**: Fuse several 3-d images with the same geometry into a dynamic 4-d (3d+t) image. - Made MITK compatible to recent compiler versions - Visibility of toolbars can now be set in preferences - Qt command-line arguments for GUI applications are supported now in the MITK Workbench and alike - MITK extensions - Dependencies of MITK's third-party dependencies are customizable now - `mitkFunctionAddExternalProject()` supports the `PREPEND` argument now - Doxygen's `EXAMPLE_PATH` is customizable now = 🐛 Bugfixes = - Fixed several bugs in the segmentation 3-d interpolation - Added the MitkLog module to a few whitelists that had not been updated when mbilog moved from MitkCore into MitkLog - Touch events are no longer being handled as mouse events, for example when using a touch pad on a MacBook, which constantly interacted with the scene in the 3-d render window - MITK Workbench and alike: unknown or invalid command-line arguments do not result in crashes anymore - On Linux, if not requested explicitly otherwise, use the "xcb" instead of the "wayland" Qt platform, which seems not to be fully compatible with our mix of VTK and Qt - A few non-GUI unit tests that rely on Qt use the "minimal" Qt platform now for better compatibility - Removed EGL as default option for the VTK build = 🔥 API-breaking changes = == MITK-IGT moved into separate MITK extension == Everything related to image-guided therapy (IGT) moved into an MITK extension, whose repository will be available on GitHub soon. Until then, MITK-IGT can be accessed temporarily via {rIGT}. MITK-IGT consists of the following dependencies, modules, and plugins, which are no longer available directly in MITK: ==== Third-party dependencies ==== - OpenCV - OpenIGTLink ==== Modules ==== - OpenIGTLink - IGTBase - IGT - CameraCalibration - OpenCVVideoSupport - ToFHardware - ToFProcessing - ToFUI - US - USUI - OpenIGTLinkUI - IGTUI ==== Plugins ==== - org.mitk.gui.qt.igtexamples - org.mitk.gui.qt.igttracking - org.mitk.gui.qt.openigtlink - org.mitk.gui.qt.toftutorial - org.mitk.gui.qt.tofutil - org.mitk.gui.qt.ultrasound - org.mitk.gui.qt.igt.app.ultrasoundtrackingnavigation - org.mitk.gui.qt.igt.app.hummelprotocolmeasurements == Removal of the LabelSet class == The `mitk::LabelSet` class introduced too much complexity for features that are not needed anymore or that are covered by the C++ Standard Library now. All remaining methods have been moved into the `mitk::LabelSetImage` class. ====== Const version of GetLabelsInGroup() renamed to GetConstLabelsInGroup() ====== Use the new method name. ====== AddLabelSetLayer() replaced by ReplaceGroupLabels() ====== Use `ReplaceGroupLabels()` if you want to exchange labels. To generate new layers use `AddLayer()`. ====== RemoveLayer() replaced by RemoveGroup() ====== Use the new method name. ====== Removal of GetLayerImage() ====== Use `GetGroupImage()` instead. ====== Refactoring of CreateLabelMask() ====== The parameters `useActiveLayer` and `layer` have been removed. They are implicitly defined by `index` now. If you used `useActiveLayer = false` with layers that didn't contain the specified label (leads to an empty image), you need to do this manually by yourself now. ====== AddLayer() no longer calls SetActiveLayer() anymore ====== Call `mitk::LabelSetImage::SetActiveLayer()` manually if necessary. Use the return value of `mitk::LabelSetImage::AddLayer()`. ====== Renamed UnlabeledValue to UNLABELED_VALUE ====== Use the new variable name. ====== LabelSetImage uses ITK events instead of MITK messages now ====== MITK messages did not allow 1:n scenarios, as the sender wasn't clear. To adapt, see mitkMultiLabelEvents.h and as an example see e.g. QmitkSimpleLabelListWidget.h. ====== Removal of obsolete label widgets ====== Use the new widgets `QmitkMultiLabelManager` or `QmitkMultiLabelInspector` instead of `QmitkLabelsWidget`, `QmitkLabelSetWidget`, or `QmitkLayersWidget`. == Removal of other obsolete modules and plugins == The following modules and plugins have been removed from MITK without replacement: - OpenCL support - TubeGraph module and plugin - Semantic relations modules and plugin - Deformable clipping plane plugin - Geometry tools plugin - Material editor plugin - Multispectrum pointset interaction plugin - Unstructured grid visualization plugin - Event recorder plugin {icon arrow-left} [[mitk/changelog/2024.05 | Previous changelog]] • [[mitk/changelog/2024.11 | Next changelog]] {icon arrow-right}
