Summary	0002104: Independent top level view windows so they can be on separate monitors
Description	Feature request from Matt Jolley (a cardiologist with a lot of experience doing segmentation in slicer). Jolley, Matthew 3:38 PM (2 hours ago) to pieper The former...It is nice to work on the axial view etc on a full screen while still being able to see the other two. No hurry, just thought it would be a cool feature in the era of cheap large monitors. MJ Matthew Jolley, MD Pediatric Cardiology Fellow Pager 5341 From: Steve Pieper [pieper@ibility.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2012 3:37 PM To: Jolley, Matthew Subject: Re: Feature Hi Matt - Which views are you refering to? Like putting the axial on the big screen and sagittal and coronal on the other? Or do you mean the module panel - if it's the latter, you can already do that by dragging it out of the main window. We could probably make you a floating slice view too if that's what you need - would take some thought, but it's probably doable... -Steve On Tue, May 22, 2012 at 2:18 PM, Jolley, Matthew <Matthew.Jolley@cardio.chboston.org<mailto:Matthew.Jolley@cardio.chboston.org>> wrote: I, like many folks, have a couple big monitors. The ability to take a window and make it full screen from one view while keeping the other two on the other would be sweet. If you can do this already and I have not figured it out please let me know. MJ Matthew Jolley, MD Pediatric Cardiology Fellow Pager 5341

The remaining step would be to tie this into an appropriate user interface. lm = slicer.app.layoutManager() lm.sliceWidget('Red').setParent(None) lm.sliceWidget('Red').show()
