Hi,

I’m struggling to find the code for slicer.vtkImageSlicePaint().  
Does anyone know where I can find it?

Many thanks,

Belén

vtkImageSlicePaint was removed from 3D Slicer with the Editor module in this commit:

> <https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/commit/39283db420baf502fa99865c9d5d58d0e5295a6e>
>
> Remove Editor module to reduce maintenance workload and simplify user choice.
> Ed…itor module has been deprecated for several years, Segment Editor offers more and improved feature set.
> 
> Also removed templates and vtkITK classes that are not used in Slicer core anymore.

Here is the code from before it was removed:
