</span>I totally agree, and have been wanting to move VTK forward for a<br>
while. One of the big blockers was the QVTKWidget (and its sequel),<br>
but the new QVTKOpenGLWidget fixes those issues. We are looking for<br>
any remaining issues, and I think need to require at least Qt 5.5 for<br>
some fixes to the way events are squashed (need to check as my memory<br>
is hazy on what release they got in).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm afraid that fix was abandoned for 5.5 and only landed in 5.6 :/<br><br></div><div>I'm working around it in my QVTKWidget subclass by letting Qt be the one in charge of when Render() is called.<br><br></div><div>It would be great if some workaround could be made in VTK, such that the requirement wouldn't have to be bumped all the way to 5.6, since it's not in official repos for LTS distros like Ubuntu 16.04.<br><br></div><div>Elvis<br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
