definition	MLFiberUtils.def
keywords	DTI, tensor, save, fiber, file

Purpose

The module SaveFibers saves a fiber set or fiber set container. As file format, either the proprietary MeVisLab “fbr” format or the VTK polydata format can be chosen.

Usage

Connect any module with fiber output to the input of the module and choose filename and (optional) file format. In case of vtk polydata format, one has the option to flip all x, y, and/or z- components.

File is up to date

name: upToDate, type: Bool, default: FALSE

Shows whether the file is up to date.

VTK polydata

name: vtkPolydata, type: Bool, default: FALSE

Optional, fibers can be stored as VTK polydata format.

flip x

name: xFlip, type: Bool, default: FALSE
