Interaction via iframe with viewer

General
1

Hello!

I need to implement a feature that allow users to tag specific instances of a study during visualization. For example, a button click would trigger a send of the visualized instance to the server and associate it to the study as an “important instance”.

In my setup, I show Orthanc’s viewer as an iframe inside an Angular app. Is it possible to interact with Orthanc’s viewer via iframe and receive relevant information from it?

Hi Diego,

There is nothing currently built-in the Orthanc’s viewer to receive/send messages from/to its parent elements.

Othanc’s viewer will stay as simple as possible so we have no plans of adding this kind of features in the future - of course you can still make the changes by yourself …

Best regards,

Alain.
