How do I merge 3D OBJECTS and then perform a FILTER?

A customer has a question that I am passing along.

If a sample can be carried into the 3D portion of PREMIER 3D and then an ISO SURFACE can be added, if an object is split by the THRESHOLD, is there a way to "WELD" two objects together so they are counted as one?

I have generated an example image set named

    Merged Sequence C.tif

This example image is attached.

Right now, I can find all of the objects and I can FILTER out all but the LARGEST OBJECT.  This is shown in the first image below.

I would like to "weld" together the LARGE CENTRAL OBJECT and some of the surrounding smaller objects and then I would like to filter our the remaining SMALLER OBJECTS.  This is shown in the second image below.  This what done by building a bridge between the two objects in the first frame of the sequence in 2D.

Is there a way to do this using the tools in the 3D section of PREMIER 3D?

Thanks.

Hi Matt,

You can "weld" selected objects together using the "Link" button on the 3D Measure tab:



Then you can hide/show objects.

Thank you for the suggestion.

I'll try it out and pass it along to the PREMIER USER ASAP.

Thanks again.
