Hi Peter,

It's not possible to set spacing in a standard Matlab matrix file since there 
is no metadata to fill in that information, however you can create a struct 
that can be read by Seg3D that can contain your data and additional 
information.

This is a bit rough, and I'm not a Matlab expert, but here are the commands I 
used to create a struct from your matrix file:

s=struct();
s.data = L2;
s.axis = struct('spacing', [0.5]);
s.axis(2,1) = struct('spacing', [0.5]);
s.axis(3,1) = struct('spacing', [3.0]);


Seg3D 1.x expected s.data to be a 4D array and s.axis a 4-vector, with a dummy dimension as the first dimension, if I'm not wrong. Has this changed in Seg3D 2? Maybe that's why my .mat data is not loaded correctly.

Peter, we have developed quite a bit of Matlab code to interact with Seg3D. Instructions to check it out here

http://code.google.com/p/gerardus/source/checkout

For example, you can load image and metadata with

nrrd = scinrrd_load('image.mat');

or convert a normal array into a struct for Seg3D

nrrd = scinrrd_im2nrrd(im, resolution, offset);

Best regards,

Ramon.
