[Paraview] Getting display coordinates

[Hansen Michael]

Hello Paraview users,

A question about display which I could not solve by visiting the whole internet ! But I'm sure you have the answer :)

I would like to display a text label in the result field just beside the point of interest using a python script. For this I have the 3D coordinates of the point, so I see two possible solutions:

1)     Display a 3D-text source at the point coordinates, which implies to calculate the required rotation angles in order for the text to be perpendicular to sight and upwards.

2)     Find the corresponding "display" coordinates of the point and display a 2D-text source at this point.

I think 2) is easier (I'm bad in geometry) and I know that vtkCoordinates can deliver the display coordinates, but I'm a nooby in vtk and Paraview and couldn't find how.

Any idea would be helpful, thx,

Michael
