Linking events in skimage.viewer

[Nadav Horesh]

Tony,
I found the .connect_event method of the ImageViewer class just before
I got the reply from you, and it roughly works. I say roughly because
in the application there are some sliders that I added (not a part of
the built-in plugins), and what I see that I see an image update only
after I touch the sliders. In the linetool, however, the response is
immediate.

Code snippet:

class Cimage:
.
.
.
    def create_window(self):
        self.view = viewer.ImageViewer(self.rgb_image)

        plugin = OverlayPlugin(image_filter=self.image_update)
        plugin += Slider('gamma', 1.0, 3.0, value=self.gamma,
orientation='vertical')
        plugin += Slider('mat mix', 0.0, 1.0, value=0.0,
update_on='move', orientation='vertical')
        plugin += Slider('wb mix', 0.0, 1.0, value=0.0,
update_on='move', orientation='horizontal')

        self.view += plugin
        self.view.connect_event('key_press_event', self.key_press)
        self.view.setWindowTitle(self.recname)
        self.view.show()
.
.
.
in the key_press method execution chain I have
self.view.image = new_image

so the image is updated, but it does not trigger a display update.



Steve,
Here is your code after some typos correction:

#! /usr/bin/python

from __future__ import print_function

from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt4agg import FigureCanvasQTAgg
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from skimage import data


class MyCanvas(FigureCanvasQTAgg):

    def mousePressEvent(self, event):
        #pass
        print('press')
        self.image = self.image[::-1]

def main():
    image = data.camera()
    f, ax = plt.subplots()
    f.canvas = MyCanvas(f)
    ax.imshow(image, interpolation='nearest')
    h, w = image.shape
    plt.show()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Running it I see that the method mousePressEvent is not being called

 I'll be happy to know if there is something to follow and build an
application based on the viewer module.

Thank you both very much

Nadav
