Purpose

The module MLImageFormatSave saves an image output of any ML module as a file including user defined information and ML image properties.

Dependent on the available compression modes the image can be is stored compressed or uncompressed.

See also general documentation about the MLImageFormat, MLDataCompressors, and its capabilities for the composition, modification, and caching of very large volumes (see Processing Large Volumes in MeVisLab) which do not fit into memory or exceed the 2GB limit.

Visible Fields

Compression

name: compression, type: Enum, default: LZ4

Defines the compression algorithm used for data compression.

See MLDataCompressors for more information.

Values:

Title Name
None None
MLCTComp2 MLCTComp2
BZip2 BZip2
Lzf LZF
Lzma LZMA
Zlib ZLIB
Lz4 LZ4

True File Name

name: trueFileName, type: String, persistent: no, deprecated name: autoFileName

The actual file name on the current system.

Remove

name: remove, type: Trigger

If pressed, the specified file is being removed from disk.

Stop

name: stop, type: Trigger

If pressed, the current saving process is stopped and the file that is written so far being removed.

Is Saving

name: isSaving, type: Bool, persistent: no

Shows if the module is currently saving.

Status

name: status, type: String, persistent: no

Shows information about the module’s state.

Written Tag List

name: tagList, type: String, persistent: no

Shows a list of tags in the file.

Save

name: save, type: Trigger

If pressed, the attached image is being saved to the specified file.

Create

name: create, type: Trigger

Creates the image on disk, but only saves the tags/properties and fills all pages with the default value, which is the voxel value at (0,0,0,0,0,0).

Save Time

name: saveTime, type: Double, persistent: no

Shows the file IO time needed for recent save opertion exclusive the preparation times for calculation, compression, reordering, etc.

Calc Time

name: calcTime, type: Double, persistent: no

Shows the calculation time needed for compression, reordering, checksums, etc., during the recent save operation, exclusive the data request from the image input.

Total Time

name: totalTime, type: Double, persistent: no

Shows the total save time including data processing from module input, data reordering and IO times.

File Name

name: fileName, type: String

Sets the path to the file in which the connected input image shall be stored.

Note that also variables can be used such as $(NETWORK), $(HOME), and $(DemoDataPath) to specify paths into the current network directory, the user’s homedirecory and to the installed example data directory of MeVisLab.

They reference some special directories to simplify relocation of module networks to other installations.
