Final steps for first milestone

[nsmela]

I think we'll need to flush exactly how the cylinder, needle channels, and tandem are all positioned. It's the fine details you'll need to help me understand from here.

Cylinder:

• info imported from the structure file
• default value is 200 mm long
• tip (middle point of contour) and base (Centre of last two points) used to generate a reference direction and reference translation for the channels
• app pushes the tip and base up until the complete cylinder reaches the desired length

Channels

• info from planning file
• points represent spots where the radioactive seed is position and waits?
• need to extend the generate a path for the channel to enter/vacate the cylinder
• one needle channel will be used as an angular reference for the tandem, the point with the highest z

Tandem

• the origin is the base at the bottom
• and determined by needle channels highest point, angle referenced to 1, 0 rotated along z axis
• users can load a step or STL file and store it as a tandem

Things to update before sharing:

• cylinder 160 length default
• tandem height determined by cylinder length
• users can load a step or STL file and store it as a tandem
• Show correct naming of needles
• Show tandem needle by default, but remove it once the tandem is added.
• Make cylinder color grey on all screens
• Show tandem model in exports
• MK to update with tandem library
  • Update current tandem with surface slice
  • Add "generic" tandems.
    • 0deg
    • 30deg
    • 45deg
    • 60deg
• Default save as folder equal to selected import folder.
• MK to confirm tandem translation is correct.
• Confirm needles translation.
• Fix tandem shift on import/needle bug
• Use tandem screen as color default
  • Color selected item with teal
• How is someone going to deploy this
  • Exe?
  • Python/ide/etc

remaining tasks:

• How is someone going to deploy this
  • Exe?
  • Python/ide/etc
• MK to confirm tandem translation is correct.
• Confirm needles translation. (needles and tandem coming in too high right now?)
• Show tandem model in exports
• MK to update with tandem library
  • Update current tandem with surface slice
  • Add "generic" tandems.
    • 0deg
    • 30deg
    • 45deg
    • 60deg
• Ability to build/modify "simple" tandem. (i didn't think we'd need this...but now I think we do. can explain)

I've also started to implement my own camera controller. For now, the right mouse button controls rotation and left mouse button only handles selection.

https://github.com/nsmela/brachify/releases/tag/alpha

Released alpha. It's a single exe download. It's big because it's got all the stuff needed packed into a single file

[nsmela]

We'll also need a license to include with the app

[nsmela]

Lastly, should we share it on the BC Cancer organization webpage?

[michaelwkudla]

There will be some issues sharing it on the webpage at first. BC Cancer will have lawyers and stuff looking into it i'd imagine. So i think definitely not for now. Do you have Fabolus on the website?

For the licence...I'll have to look into options. MIT comes to mind, just need to look into what it means. I don't want a company taking it and then converting it into a for-profit model without our permission.

[nsmela]

I am sharing Fabolus on the BC Cancer github page Nick and I are a part of. I'm not sure if the project becomes public once it's on there

[michaelwkudla]

Closing since this is mostly done. Will add a new "beta release" wishlist/bug list as needed.
