Sorry this --vrpn thing was not in your homepage it comes on  



http://wiki.iq-station.com/index.php?title=ImmersiveParaView 


I shouldnt trust eh even it has a WIKI in its name. 


In the new vrpn thing there are some new issues i dont know: 


this is part of a .pvsm file which should be loaded before usage:

normal="CutFunction.Normal"> 
<Button name="cspad.3"/> 
<Tracker name="cspad.wand"/> 
</Style> 
</VRInteractorStyles> 
</!-->  

the thing is i dont know what i should fill in for 


<Style class="vtkVRStyleTracking" set_property="RenderView1.HeadPose">



RenderView1.HeadPose 
or 
<Style class="vtkVRStyleGrabNTranslateSliceOrigin"
origin="CutFunction.Origin"> 
CutFunktion.Origin 


 

I understand your concern. The wiki page does document this very well.
But typically the interactor styles help you choose what type of
interaction you want to do. If you want head tracking use the
vtkVRStyleTracking which uses tracking data 'cspad.head' and changes the
property RenderView1.HeadPose (in the state file) 



If your scene has a slice and you want to manipulate the slice then you
can use vtkVRStyleGrabNTranslateSliceOrigin style. It basically takes
tracker inputs and a button to change the slice origin
(CutFunction.Origin). So you can press button and move the wand to move
the slice plane. 



I will be updating the document with more info about the interactor
styles. 





thank you for your help

Hi Christian, 



Here is the latest documentation for Paraview in CAVE

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ParaView/Users_Guide/CAVE_Display 



The --vrpn option was replaced with a different mechanism (see
document). Can you send me a reference to the page where you found the
info so that can be updated.

Hy ! 


Hy I'm using ParaView 3.14 in a Cave environment using VRPN when i try
to start ./pvserver --vrpn . It says cannot open file --vrpn) ( which
should mean the swtich --vrpn is not know) but on the Homepage of
ParaView is mentioned. ANY IDEA ??
