Hi Richard, just pipe vmtkcenterlinemerge after vmtkbranchextractor and use -ofile to write the file out, that's the quickest. What is your exact issue?
Roman: I haven't got an answer for you yet - I've been taking care of the quick messages but yours requires a free slot of time. Thanks for your patience.
