Matlab Versions

Windows Linux MacOS

Old 32-bit (compatibility) releases:

Matlab Ver 7.1; Matlab 2006a;Matlab 2006b; Matlab 2007a; Matlab 2007b

Recent working release (32 and 64 bit version):

Matlab 2007-onwards

The release is supplied with working 32 and 64 bit mex files for Windows and 32-bit Linux (built for Ubuntu 9.04) and has been tested against Matlab 2008a and above. It should work with any Matlab using mex files. In case of a problem or unsupported version you should look for "How to MEX MSlice"

Download one of the versions and

see "How to MEX MSlice".

Set Up

Matlab Version

  • Unpack this file into C:\mprogs or a directory of your choice eg X:\ISIS
  • Open your startup.m file (if it does not exist, then startup.m in the folder that matlab starts)
  • Add the following lines to the startup.m file
addpath('c:\mprogs\mslice') % where c:\mprogs\mslice is the folder you unzipped mslice into
mslice_init 

Standalone Version

Before using a Matlab compiled product you must run MCRInstaller.exe. This .exe file installs required components of Matlab on your computer. Admin rights are required to run this and it must be run the first time you download a standalone matlab application. If you have already run this file on your computer, you do not need to run it again. Run the file and follow the on-screen instructions.


Set Up Examples

Some examples are included with the program. These are .msp files used by mslice to store locations of various required data. For these to work correctly, you need to run a coversion program so that they refer to your installation location. For the Matlab installation, type >> mslice_setup_examples, or for the standalone version run mslice_setup_examples.exe. You only need to do this once at the time of installation, or if you move the installation to another folder. This step is optional for newer versions of Mslice as they automatically pick-up examples from the mslice folder.

Start Mslice

To stat mslice in Matlab, type >> mslice. To start the standalone version, double click the mslice.exe file. An example should appear in the GUI straight away. To look at other examples, click the parameters menu item and click load parameters. Then choose one of the other example .msp files to load.
