Member Function Documentation

AxisUpdate [] ICSV.Server.AxesBuilder.CreateAxes	(	ImageContainer[]	axisImages,
		CoordinateContainer[]	axisCoords,
		Dictionary< ImageContainer, CoordinateContainer >	items,
		int	dimensions
	)

Creates axes for the given images. This method will update the given coordinates in the 'items' parameter if necessary.

This method tries to rotate the 'L' axis in such a way that Lmin (black) is at Y- and Lmax (white) is at Y+. The 'a' axis will be rotated such that Amin (green) is pointing to X- and Amax (red) is pointing to X+. The 'b' axis will be flipped if necessary, such that Bmin (blue) is pointing towards Z+ and Bmax (yellow) is pointing to Z-. Please note, that the resulting axes don't need to be orthogonal, since the MDS algorithm does not ensure an orthogonal system.

Parameters

axisImages	The images of the axes. Useful for coloring the axes.
axisCoords	The coordinates of the axes. Necessary for rotating the whole system.
items	The images in the current coordinate system, with their corresponding coordinates. The coordinates will be adapted when rotating/flipping the coordinate system.
dimensions	The dimension of the coordinate system. Either 2D or 3D.

Returns

the resulting axes.
