Hi all,

I’m working on refactoring the way model hierarchies are handled in Slicer, which ultimately means getting rid of the current concept of model hierarchies altogether.

In the process I bumped into the Fibers feature in the Models module. When the user clicks the Include Fibers checkbox, three tabs appear: Line, Tube, Glyph. It seems to do two things: show the fiber bundle nodes in the tree, and turn on visibility of the nodes of the type of the active tab.

Does anyone know

1. Exactly how this feature should work?
a. And whther it works correctly in the latest nightly?

2. If this feature is needed, or what are the expectations about this in 5.0?

Thanks a lot!
