Automatic glue detection is the part of autoplotting (its latest stage). The algorithm makes an attempt to select and remove glue automatically. After this the operator have has to confirm or reject the result of removing glue.

Manual voxel QC tools give an opportunity for flexible manual modification of autoplotted inclusions in real time. In voxel QC tools mode you will be able to split combined inclusions by plane, delete wrong parts of inclusion, tune shape of each inclusion (like it was done by postprocessing) in real time, merge several (or all) inclusions in a one to perform the operation to with group of inclusions, cut subsurface layer inclusions.

  • If you have made a mistake drawing the line or want to reject operation press "Cancel". You may cancel operation before you clicked "Finish", after this operation you may only apply the invert operation of merge operation - see chapter "Inclusion mergemerging".

Inclusion deletion / restoration

...

  • Select inclusion. If you want to apply the tool to a group of inclusions (or all inclusions like in postprocessing algoritms), you have to merge them before application the algorithm - see "Inclusion mergemerging".
  • Press the button "Thresholding" in "Tune border" group box. After this the selected inclusion will be highlighted in half-transparent red color:

  • Select inclusion. If you want to apply the tool to a group of inclusions (or all inclusions like in postprocessing algoritms), you have to merge them before application the algorithm - see "Inclusion mergemerging".
  • Press the button "Morphology" in "Tune border" group box. After this the selected inclusion will be highlighted in half-transparent red color.
  • Moving the slider we may adjust the stickout of the inclusion. Moving slider to the left will reduce inclusion volume. Moving slider to the right will increase inclusion volume.
  • Click "Finish tuning" to apply changes or "Cancel" to reject them

So the main idea of the tool is similar to the thresholding voxel QC tool - it can adjust the inclusion stickout. The difference is in the shape of the resulting border of inclusion. Morphology doesn't take into account the transparency of the inclusion and can increase inclusion volume to the area, where you cannot see anything resembling inclusion. As for On the contrary, the thresholding tool , it cannot increase inclusion volume to transparent area. Also morphology increases inclusion volume uniformly in all directions, as for thresholding tool - the increase depends on inclusion transparency.

...

Also multiple application of this tool is useful if you want to remove small transparent holes in inclusion or split big inclusion from other ones connected by thin necks. These techniques are more complicated (but very useful) and described in chapter "Practically important cases".

Inclusion

...

merging

Sometimes it is necessary to merge several or all inclusions into one. For example, you want to adjust inclusion shape for several or all inclusions or merge some parts of inclusions that were split by plane. Important cases of using inclusion merge merging are described in "Practically important cases". Here we describe how to use this tool.

...

This case is useful if you want to emulate postprocessing algoritms (adjust inclusion shape for all inclusions) - for information see "Practically important cases".

Subsurface layer

...

cutting

Often during QC you need to remove subsurface inclusions or laser markings. In classic QC mode you can filter such inclusions only in case if subsurface inclusions are isolated from internal ones. For example, for "coated" rough you cannot do this.
