mode / view_mode inefficient

[SimonRit]

Using the latest pre-release (using jupyer notebooks on Linux Python 3.9), passing mode='x' or view_mode='x' (idem for y / z) as parameter to itkwidgets.view does not change the display mode, one still has the 3D view. Pressing the corresponding buttons on the user interface does work.

@SimonRit thanks for the report.

We are working on addressing this via #515 #466

Excellent, thanks! Sorry I did not make the connection...

The syntax has changed slightly for the pre-release channel (which is what we recommend using).

view(..., view_mode='x') -> view(..., view_mode='XPlane')

with the options of XPlane, YPlane, ZPlane, or Volume (the default is Volume).
