Purpose

The module MLImageFormatLoad loads MLImageFormat files specified by a file name and provides the stored image at the output connector.

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.

See the documentation of the module MLImageFormatSave for many user interface parameters not described here.

Visible Fields

Compression

name: compression, type: Enum, persistent: no

Shows the used compression algorithm.

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

Shows the true and absolute file name of the file on the current system.

Status

name: status, type: String, persistent: no

Shows state information about the module.

Tag List

name: tagList, type: String, persistent: no

Shows a list of tags in the file.

Apply Mode

name: applyMode, type: Enum, default: AutoUpdate, deprecated name: updateMode

Defines the apply mode.

Values:

Title Name Description
Off Off Nothing happens if any field is changed.
Auto Update AutoUpdate If any field is changed, the module loads the specified image anew.
Auto Clear AutoClear If any field changes, the image output is being invalidated.

Open

name: open, type: Trigger

If pressed, the specified file is being loaded.

Close File

name: close, type: Trigger

If pressed, the loaded file is being closed and the output being invalidated.

Suppress Check Sum Tests

name: suppressCheckSumTests, type: Bool, default: TRUE

If this field is checked then time consuming checksum calculations and -tests are disabled while reading page data from a file. In most applications the time needed for these checksum tests is not relevant in comparison with IO times and other calculations on the data. Nevertheless this can be useful to gain maximum load performance in a few applications when reading image data from SSDs or ramdisks. However, corrupted files will probably not detected any more. Therefore this mode is not recommended.

File Name

name: fileName, type: String

Sets the name of the file to be loaded.

This name can contain variables. See the documentation of MLImageFormatSave for more information.
