Vitronic Color Import

To import Vitronic color scans into CySize, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Run PlyTool as you normally would.
  2. Tick the "UV to CPV" option (see Fig 1).
  3. Click the arrow and load the first color texture file.
  4. Set the rotation angles to 90, 0, 90.
  5. Fig 2. Load OBJ
    Fig 2. Load OBJ
    Click the Input arrow and load the OBJ file with Meters ticked (see Fig 2). Even if you already have an OBJ loaded, you need to reload it after ticking the "UV to CPV" option.
  6. Click the Output arrow and specify the PLY file as you normally would.
  7. Click Convert
  8. Click View, and use the 'C' key to shade the mesh with color to check the conversion.

Load the PLY file into CySize and process as you normally would and the color should end up in the final merged and filled surface. You can then use the "Place Landmarks" tool to quickly place points on all of your color markers.

Wish/Bug List

- one file missing slice through head after merging

- "I’m going to upload a BAF.ply file + its slice and a txt file of our measure list. Our problems now is that when we re-open the baf and restore our measurements, some of these (points and measures) are in different places, missed or even we have new curves… Also, the new function to look for max and min girths changes its spot after restoring."

- "In addition, just in case Mike didn’t mention it to you, we are having problems when we want to find the max hip girth when using a curve guide, since the curve doesn’t always go all the way around – sometimes it’s missing part of the girth."

- "but if CySize could automatically generate a straight but inclined line between the two armpit markers, that would be great."

- "clip the raised landmarks off and if so, can we clip them individually? Sometimes it would be beneficial to temporarily or permanently remove markers"
