How to write ANALYZE 7.5 files with defined pixel/voxel type, extension .hdr

Software G'MIC
1

I would like to write 3D data in Analyze 7.5 format with defined pixel/voxel type. The in-built HDR file writer produces always float pixel/voxel.

Is there a trick or command to force gmic to use another pixel data type?

This : Command 'output': Allow ANALYZE 7.5 files (.hdr and .nii) to be saved… · dtschump/gmic@553fbee · GitHub
should solve your problem, allowing:

$ gmic sp lena o analyze.hdr,uchar

Thank you David for the quick help.

… and I thought I had forgotten how to do it…

In gmic 2.8.3 it works!

Not exactly the topic, however 3d image display!

Seemingly the 3d image display is normalizing the center image. Is it possible to activate at least the ^N key for the normalization in this display mode too?

If I look at the difference of a 3d image with e.g. an opened or blurred one, I get strong display jumps according the extrema in the differences per z coordinate.

I agree that 3d display is feature incomplete compared to 2d and would like to see more. :slight_smile:

You are right. The fact is the display of 2D images is managed by custom command display2d, while 3D images use the built-in command display (display actually redirects to display2d in case of 2D images).
The best thing to do would be then to have an equivalent custom command display3d_image, for 3D image visualization (because display3d already exists for 3D vector objects).

This represents quite a bit of work, but maybe one day… :stuck_out_tongue:
