[Insight-developers] VTK in FLTK on OSX

[John M. Galeotti]

There is currently a major problem on Mac OSX systems regarding VTK and 
FLTK (the toolkits used by many ITK apps, including our own):  FLTK 
goes crazy if you do not give each VTK window its own FLTK window.  
Apparently, each VTK window takes over the entire FLTK window in which 
it is placed, covering up all other widgets.  If 2 VTK windows are 
placed side by side in a single FLTK window, then both VTK windows will 
cover the entire FLTK window, but one of the VTK windows will end up on 
top of the other VTK window.

Are there any plans to fix this?  If not, does anyone know where I 
should start looking to fix it myself?  Would 
vtkFlRenderWindowInteractor be a good place to start?  Any help would 
be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
