                    <br>
                    Thanks for confirming it. Does Kitware have a plan
                    to implement volume rendering for rectilinear
                    volume? You see the spectrum from vtkImageData, to
                    vtkRectilinearGrid, vtkStructuredGrid --- volume
                    rendering is implemented on both ends but not for
                    the middle one, which is a bit odd to the user. <br>
