|I have a dataset consisting of 128 slices (in z-direction) each
|consisting of 128 lines (in y-direction) each consisting of
|128 points (in x-direction).
...
|How can I display (or fill in a *.general or *.dx) this data.
|I've tried the data prompter but no luck so far.
Once you have a few .general files lying around, you may find it faster to
just copy and modify them. But here, try this:
> dx -prompter
Key in "datafile" for Data file name.
Select "Grid or Scattered file (General Array Format)"
Leave the regular grid icon selected, number of variables set to 1,
Single time step selected, and Block Data organization selected.
Click Describe data.
Key in Grid size of 128x128x128
Change Data format to Binary (IEEE).
Leave Data order set to Row.
Change origins/deltas if your voxels aren't square.
Change Type to "unsigned byte".
Click Modify.
Now, File->Save As... datafile.general
You should end up with something like this:
> cat datafile.general
file = datafile
grid = 128 x 128 x 128
format = msb ieee
interleaving = record
majority = row
field = field0
structure = scalar
type = unsigned byte
dependency = positions
positions = regular, regular, regular, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1
end
Then just Import("datafile.general")->AutoGrayScale->Image. Should you
just want specific slices, pipe Import into Slice.
