Hello,

I would like to report a possible bug with slicer 5.7.0 revision 32698 built 2024-01-25 for Mac system. In module “Volume Rendering”, when I tried to show the maximum/minimum intensity projection of a volume, it does not show properly in the 3D view.

Best,

Rui

Shadows are not compatible with maximum/minimum intensity projection rendering modes. You can to disable “Shadows visibility” in the view controller. I’ve added an issue to make sure that the users are aware of this limitation:

> Volume rendering MIP (minimum/maximum intensity projection) is inc…ompatible with shadows option. The volume does not appear if "Shadows visibility" option is enabled in the 3D view.
