Crop

Resample

Any number of filters can be added or inserted to the processing pipeline that BioImage uses. In order to set up a filter, add the filter as was done in the tutorial, and choose the values it will use in the filter's UI. The filters will be applied starting at the top of the list and progressing downward.

Note

No filter is applied to the processing pipeline until the green "Update" button is clicked. This will insert the filter properly into the processing chain.

Crop

Crop the volume to the specified size. When the cropping filter is being manipulated, a transparent green bounding window will be shown in the various 2D windows. To manipulate this cropping window, simply click on one of the corners and drag it to the desired place. To directly edit the values for the crop filter, simply type in the desired cropping bounds in the filter's parameter window. In order for the filter to be successfully applied, values must be specified for all parameters, left/right, posterior/anterior, and inferior/superior.
