[Paraview] GLSL shaders and Paraview

[Thomas Félix]

Yes you're right Ken, I apologize for my lack of precision. In fact I'm 
new with Paraview so I'm exploring different approches for the moment...
I want to access the vtkProperty (or vtkActor) as part of a custom 
filter, because I need to compute things using a shader, but I also have 
to integrate functions in the classic filter way... (as part of the 
RequestData method for example). I think directly using the vtkProperty 
is a good (easy?) way to use shaders in paraview but maybe I'm totally 
wrong... So if someone can at least guide me in my futur investigations, 
it should be great.

Thanks.
