[vtkusers] Two parallel coords chart questions

Hey Marcus,

I figured out how to use vtkConvertSelection, so #1 isn't as urgent (although if there's something built in to the chart it would be good to know about).

#2 is still an issue, when you get a chance.

Thanks,
-Eric

I tried creating my own annotation link with the correct ContentType and setting that as the chart's annotation link, but it still comes back as Indices... (I'm still not great with the selection stuff -- maybe there's an easy way to convert the type by using the SelectionNode itself, or maybe I need to use vtkConvertSelection?)

I tried chart.GetAxis(i).SetMaximum() and Minimum, but it looks like your auto-scale axes kung-fu is too strong for my "poke at it with a stick" technique... :)  Is there any way around this right now?
