</div>I can confirm confirm that anything with an OpenGL dependency should<br>
be in the rendering group, anything that is pretty stand alone<br>
(doesn't require big external dependencies, might include third party<br>
libs we build) is in StandAlone.<br>

</div>That could be the case - I didn't try with Examples turned on.<br>

</div>You can turn off all groups, and then just enable the one or two<br>
modules of interest (they will enable all of their required<br>
dependencies). The groups are intended as a convenience for<br>
developers, and roughly mimic some of the old VTK_USE_* options.<br>

</div>I don't use it, and to be honest would rather put energy into MinGW if<br>
we were going for GCC on Windows (not saying we need to due to the<br>
widespread availability of Visual Studio Express versions).<br>
