<DIV>Hi Luis,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It's me again. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>- I didn't find the solution of my problem of camera. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> <STRONG>m_Camera->SetPosition(Cx,Cy,1); <BR> m_Camera->SetFocalPoint(Cx,Cy,0); <BR> m_Camera->SetViewUp (0, 1, 0);</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG> m_Camera->ParallelProjectionOn(); </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG> m_Renderer->SetActiveCamera(m_Camera);<BR> m_Renderer->ResetCamera();<BR></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG> m_RenderWindow->SetSize(dimension[0], dimension[1]); <BR> m_Camera->SetParallelScale( dimension[0]/2 ); <BR> m_RenderWindow->Render();</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My camera is well positionned in space I think. However, <STRONG>my image is like kilometers far away of my camera</STRONG>: I can see my image's borders only after stretching my render window: it's like a small point so far away. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I know where my camera is positionned. But <STRONG>what i don't know is where my volume or my slice is in space</STRONG>. Maybe it depends on <STRONG>SetClippingRange</STRONG>() that I don't use for the moment..</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>- By the way, I am wondering if buying <STRONG>VTK's user's guide</STRONG> would be a good idea. Indeed, I'm working in medical image processing and I am sure that I will use ITK VTK for a long time. Or maybe do you have another suggestion of what I should get as guide.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
