Utkarsh,

I've updated that page (http://mypage.iu.edu/~heiland/pv-stuff/) with my latest 
playing around.  Basically, I discovered the "Plot Over Line" filter which does 
sort of what I want - ability to plot a row in an ImageData.  However, I have a 
few questions:

1) why doesn't the plot dynamically update as I move (or as I move and then 
release the picked line source)?  It almost seems to update at random.  Does 
this have something to do with my PV Settings?  I do have "Auto Accept" on.

2) is there some way to constrain the line source to take on only integer Y 
values?  Basically, I only want to plot the exact values within the ImageData, 
no interpolation.

3) Instead of the Plot Over Line, I tried to use a VOI filter on the ImageData, 
thinking I might be able to extract just the row I wanted to plot, but saw that 
I am not allowed to specify a 1-D VOI.

thanks, Randy
