I’m trying to experiment with making a video with slices scrolling volumes /segments

pretty much clueless about what do the parameters mean

like in this example i made a volume render and trying to show axial/sagittal slice going through it

but I’m not sure about all these parameters and whats a master sequence and other sequences mean

For a slice sweep video, the easiest is to use Screen Capture module. Choose a slice view as master view and “slice sweep” animation mode, and enable capture all views.

For animating volume rendering cropping and properties, you can use Animator module in SlicerMorph extension.
