<br>> properties for each axes,title,etc.; and using the labels found in the field<br>> to label each of the axes."<br>> > So i have modified the source code of the vtkParallelCoordinatesActor to<br>> include these missing functionalities. The following are the features

<br>> tcl/java/python wrapped. All the functions in this new class are according<br>> to the vtk coding standards as specified in<br>> <a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK_Coding_Standards">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK_Coding_Standards
