[ITK-users] Problem with SliceBySliceImageFilter, only applied on the first slice

[Jonas Teuwen]

Thank Brad,

Following your suggestion to move the creation of the invidual filters to
the GenerateData method, it works. I assume I will understand why once, I
get more experience with ITK.


Best,
Jonas
