Simple napari plugin to erase the current label value in 3D for an entire Labels volume.

napari-3d-label-eraser

A simple tool to erase a selected label across an entire 3D volume in napari.

Overview

napari-3d-label-eraser provides a fast and convenient way to remove all voxels belonging to a given label in a 3D Labels layer.
This is useful for cleaning segmentation results, removing misdetected objects, or performing manual corrections in volumetric datasets.

The plugin adds a dock widget featuring:

• a dropdown menu to select the target Labels layer,
• a button to erase the currently selected label across the entire 3D volume,
• optional usage instructions.

A keyboard shortcut (A) can also be used to trigger the erase operation directly from the viewer.

Features

• Erase all voxels of the selected label throughout a 3D volume.
• Dropdown to choose the active Labels layer.
• Compatible with napari’s label picker (L key).
• Optional keyboard shortcut (A) for quick editing.
• Minimal, lightweight, and easy to integrate into existing workflows.

pip install napari-3d-label-eraser
