<div dir="ltr">Hi Dan,<div>Thanks a ton for the example. The example used 4 different viewports. However, for my application, I need to set all renderers under the same viewport. The problem is that if I add a second renderer into the render window and using the default viewport, it will cover the first renderer and nothing on the first renderer will show up. I am wondering if I did the whole thing wrong.</div><div><br></div><div>My purpose is to display some DICOM images, some texts, and scales on the same screen. Also, I would like to make the scales zoom with the DICOM images but the texts stay put. Most importantly, I would like to get the world coordinates on the DICOM image when users click on the screen, so I can mark the click properly.</div><div><br></div><div>What should be done in order to get this working?</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Many thanks.<br><br><br></div>Bill<br></div></div></div>
