[Paraview] Plugin XML Help

[Eric E. Monson]

Hey Adriano,

On the wiki there is a little section describing how to add a custom  
object panel:

http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/Plugin_HowTo#Adding_an_object_panel

which also links to this extra information page:

http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CustomObjectPanels

There is also an example in the ${ParaviewSource}/Examples/Plugins/ 
GUIObjectPanel directory.

Finally, about half-way through Ken Moreland's talk from IEEE Vis 2009  
on customizing ParaView with plugins, he gives an example of an object  
panel. This page has presentation slides from that day and some code  
samples:

http://www.vtkedge.org/Wiki/IEEE_Vis09_ParaView_Tutorial

Hope this helps,
-Eric
