This napari plugin was generated with copier using the napari-plugin-template.

Description

This lightweight plugin helps you navigate your labels layer. It is intended to ease your manual annotation work.

• Select a label from the list.
• Toggle the visibility of individual label entries.
• Move to the centroid of a label at the current zoom.
• Change the color of individual labels.
• Erase all drawn pixels of a given label.
• Restore an erased label.

Version >=0.1.0 works for napari version >= 0.5.5

Version <0.1.0 should work for napari version < 0.4.19

Usage

Start the plugin Plugins > Annotator (Annotator).

The plugin will list available labels once a labels layer is selected and labels drawn.

Color shuffling for labels will not work, since the plugin sets the color mode of the layer to direct. But you can always change the color of individual labels, using the color picker.

Known limitations

1. Locating / moving to the center of a label only works on 2D/3D label layers, i.e.:
   1. single- / multi-channel 2D label layers.
   2. single-channel 3D label layers (the third dimension being either Z or T).
2. (Theoretical) maximum of 20'000 labels supported.

3. Restoring an erased labels is lost after switching between layers.
